Maybe more like a mad scientist with a chef's apron when I cook.
I'm always looking for something onhand to kick up the taste.

Had some boneless,skinless chicken thighs ready to go and while getting them out of the fridge the spicy brown mustard caught my eye. Hey,why not? Smeared some mustard on both sides of the thighs along with some of my more favorite seasonings and into the oven.

Probably not the way most of you cook thighs but I set the oven at 425° and using an temp probe cook until chicken is 195°. The thighs stay juicy and the higher oven temp crisps the coating.

I always knew that mustard wasn't just for hotdogs. Now if I can only find a way to use up the mayo or grape jelly. :D

My grandson slept over last night,, after the World Series game,,

In the morning, my wife made him pancakes,,
I asked him if he wanted syrup, or homemade grape jelly from the grapes HE picked,,!!

He chose the grape jelly, and smeared a bout 1/4" on each pancake,,
He loved them,, 1/4 of the pint jar is GONE!!
 
The skin on fried chicken always tastes so good but most of the fat is under the skin so I was getting admonitions from my medical providers to strip the skin from fried chicken. That's no fun.

An ex-girlfriend came up with the idea of coating the skinless chicken with honey mustard and then rolling the chicken in bread crumbs. It gives a sensation like eating the skin on fried chicken without having all the fat from the chicken skin.

A grape jelly and yellow mustard blend makes a decent BBQ sauce.
Also, if you add some anise seed to your seasoning rub, (dry rub) you will make your taste buds do the happy dance. 👍❤️🤔❤️

Next time you make a grilled sandwich, put mayo on the outside instead of butter/margarine. It comes out nice and crispy.

I'm not grape jelly fan, but a friend goes through a lot of it feeding Baltimore Orioles.
 
It's been awhile, but used to pan fry pork cops in mustard/milk mix. Like to use a little dry mustard powder in the New Year's pork and sauerkraut.
