Making a Coq Au Vin today

Making a coq au vin today for the game. Using John Beshs recipe in “my family table”.
I got the chicken from Iverstime butcher and had them cut it in pieces. Couldn’t find a 6-7 lb rooster so I got a 4.5 lb hen and a couple leg quarters.. It’s been marinating since last night. I’ll post pictures as I go. Wine used is Coppola’s Rosso. Love this cheap little wine.

It’s my first one, so we’ll see how it goes, but it looks pretty easy. Probably will start cooking around 2 today.

Out of the marinade
]
And into the pot.
And my fancy French chicken in my fancy paper bowls. It was really good. Only thing I changed in the recipe is I used bacon fat to brown the chicken.
Next time I may add more wine.
ETA: and I just realized I added a whole can of tomato paste not a tablespoon. I thought it tasted a little more tomato-y than wine. Still good though. Guess I need to make it again in the future.

Looks good brother. I worked @a French brasserie in Charleston & we referred to this dish as "purple chicken" because we made a red wine marinade that it would sit in overnight. We only served it one night a week & we definitely rendered bacon lardons to utilize the fat for cooking and to add extra flavor to the braise.
Yours looks really good. Now make some rice!

There’s rice in there. It’s under the sauce.

Damn. Would the French be pissed if you made a potato salad to go with that?
Posted on 11/11/18 at 8:17 am to BugAC
Besh's recipe is by far my favorite. I may have to make that soon. I usually cheat by not getting a rooster either. Typically I just get thighs or leg quarters.

Great job AC .. I need to make that dish again, been awhile.

Lol, my brother brought potato salad over and I made some green beans as a side.
ETA: I’ve noticed I have a downvote stalker again. You really need to get a life.

Your downvote is likely from inability to follow instructions

Most things can be solved with a little more wine

That looks delicious. Was it delicious? Describe it to me. Don't hold back. Let me live vicariously through you.
I'm calling Maxwell's tomorrow to see if they can get me a rooster. If I can't I definitely can find an old hen somewhere.
