Plow Disk Cooking

For those who enjoy Southwestern cooking, this is must have.

I first saw one of these while watching a show about Argentina on the Travel Channel. The locals used a cast iron plow disk for cooking meals over a fire. I believe the correct name is "Discada". They would grill together a variety of meat and veggies to put on tortillas. Simple enough.

This may be a common item for those of you in the Southwestern states, but I had a hard time finding one to purchase. I finally found one from SouthwestDisk, and I have been using it like crazy. The disks are very large, and it's a great way to serve a lot of people on a small budget.

Check out the Southwest Disk website. They sell seasoned cast iron disks and also have some recipes. The recipe I use the most (and that has pictured instructions) is from another website.

Chimay was once declared by Michael Jackson (the beer critic) to be the best beer in the world. At least for that year - 1994 or somewhere around that year.

But probably still the best.
