The only thing I have going on today is lunch with friends. It should be a real easy day even if it's raining cats and dogs.

I don't think you need any help finding mischief - outdoors, or otherwise, do you, Twistie?A bit warmer here today, so I need to find some outdoor mischief to get into.
¡Hay, que rico! ¡Me encantan los mariscos! And, y'all have some of the yummiest I've ever had. I still have dreams about the dungeness crab I had in Seattle, a million years ago.Mariscos! Se me antoja un cóctel de camarón.

According to ChatGPT:I've got to figure out this Oaxacan style steak sauce. It has to be pasilla peppers with chipotle....it's dark dark but definitely not mole. There's a smoky chipotle thing going on but there's almost a tobacco note? and moderate heat...maybe chile de arbol but those are usually hotter than this. It's so fucking good....I wonder if they'll let me watch....hahaha yeah me neither.
Don't look at me for recipe advice about anything Mexican. The flavor profile is completely different than what have in Panamá. But, I absolutely volunteer to taste test everything.I've got to figure out this Oaxacan style steak sauce. It has to be pasilla peppers with chipotle....it's dark dark but definitely not mole.

I love that the cooking chat and recipe exchange on this thread is being handled by the men. Como Dios quiere.According to ChatGPT:
Here is a solid Oaxacan-style steak sauce inspired by mole negro, pasilla chile, roasted tomato salsa, and smoky Oaxacan flavors. It is not a full mole; it is faster and meant to go directly over grilled steak.
Oaxacan-Style Steak Sauce
Ingredients
4 dried chiles pasilla oaxaqueños
or substitute: 3 dried pasilla chiles + 1 dried ancho chile + a little extra smoky element
2 Roma tomatoes
3 tomatillos, husked
3 garlic cloves, unpeeled
1/4 white onion
1 small corn tortilla, toasted
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
1 tablespoon pumpkin seeds
1/2 teaspoon dried Mexican oregano
1/4 teaspoon cumin
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 clove
1 tablespoon raisins
1 teaspoon piloncillo or brown sugar
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar or Mexican cane vinegar
1/2 to 3/4 cup beef broth or water
Salt to taste
1 tablespoon lard, avocado oil, or neutral oil
Optional but very good:
1 small square Mexican chocolate, about 10–15 g
1 teaspoon mezcal
A pinch of allspice
A splash of steak resting juices
Method
Toast the dried chiles in a dry skillet over medium heat for a few seconds per side until fragrant. Do not burn them, or the sauce will turn bitter. Remove stems and seeds, then soak the chiles in hot water for 15–20 minutes.
In the same skillet, char the tomatoes, tomatillos, garlic, and onion until blistered and softened. Peel the garlic.
Toast the tortilla, sesame seeds, and pumpkin seeds until lightly browned. Again, avoid burning.
Blend the soaked chiles, roasted tomatoes, tomatillos, garlic, onion, toasted tortilla, seeds, oregano, cumin, cinnamon, clove, raisins, sugar, vinegar, and 1/2 cup broth until very smooth.
Heat the oil or lard in a saucepan. Pour in the blended sauce and fry it over medium heat for 5–8 minutes, stirring often. Add more broth until it reaches a pourable steak-sauce consistency.
Simmer another 10 minutes. Add salt to taste. Add the optional chocolate at the end and stir until melted. Add mezcal only at the very end, off heat, if using.
How to serve
Spoon over grilled skirt steak, ribeye, flank steak, or carne asada. Finish with thin-sliced white onion, cilantro, lime, and warm corn tortillas.
For a richer steakhouse-style version, stir in 1 tablespoon butter or steak drippings right before serving.
We are going to need pictures of that. It sounds incredible!
