The meat event was so much fun but it makes me scared for the next event. The bar is set so high that the pasta event has to be awesome which makes it harder because were making pasta to order is going to be difficult but at the same time it will be like where really at a restaurant. I don't know what ill do! But its going to be awesome and exciting!

Its Meatmaddness day! Onik Onik, moooooo, and quak quak! It was a room full of meat and craziness. We had a room full of cowboys, pigs, bath time, sleeping time, and much more! It was a blast at this event. I loved it more then the soup because it was MEAT! Besides vegetarians who doesn't love meat!

This week i got to cut open a chicken! It was such an awesome thing! I called my mom right after to talk about how awesome it was! Being able to actually take apart a chicken is completely awesome! I loved it! Also we found out exactly what were going to do for our event next week! We all are gonna take that Texas brisket and rock it! 

Now its my Turn!

 Now last week we learned from chef and watched him cut up a chicken. Now we get to do it! It was so interesting to feel literally every bone in that chicken. Having to cut it up felt like a murder show. It was so weird to feel the inside and outside of a chicken. I also had to crack the chicken bones in the shoulder and it felt gross and awesome! Its so awesome I go from a a class where i am on the computer the whole class period to a class where I am truly fishing the rest of a job of killing a chicken!

AHA Moment!

AHA! What a crazy week! We go from doing a soup event to cutting a chicken in pieces. It was fun and interesting! I love how fast and crazy this class is. I actually saw Chef mark cut a chicken in Half! Like how crazy is that! Its so awesome though. I never really watched my mom cook which kind of sucks because I could have know how to do all this! It wouldn't be learning it would be relearning. Which would of helped a lot when I was a freshmen eating out or in the hot spot all the time.

How to Cut a Chicken

 So we got to chase a chicken around, cut off its head and pluck their feathers. AHAH Just kidding! We learned how to take a chicken a learn how to cut it in order to cook it. We have to cut off the flaps, then go into the stomach and so on and so forth. It was a great thing to watch but next week i can't wait to do it!

The Start of the broth!

Whoops the fire alarm went off!

Making broth from not cooked all the way to being burnt! Last week we learned exactly how to make it. This week we have to follow what was thought to us. My group had to burn it and it was much easier to make mistakes and burn it then to make it all correct. but it did not taste god at all! So making it right will make your soup full of different great flavors.
