Interesting question
I have gotten into a routine
I order my breakfast every day from the same place between 6:30 and 7 am
2 eggs over easy. Hash browns and a sausage patty
I’m feeling pretty good lately. Lunch and dinner are hit and miss all over the place. But I get a good breakfast

Agreed, I love a smoked butt but that takes 8 hours and hard to achieve consistent heat in the winter. Instapot kicks ass. Throw an onion, jalapeño, and some tomatillos in and you’ve got killer tacos for the week.

You guys make me want to go out and buy a pork butt. I actually was gonna today, but the market didn't have any.

Breakfast - about 50/50 nothing/bowl of gruel (always have coffee, but that hardly counts)
Lunch - leftovers, if I remember to eat anything
Dinner - usually some delicious Italian pasta
Evening snack - nachos, cereal, whatever my stoned-ass feels like eating at 9pm

Imitation instantpot carnitas or pernil ftw. Put the fat cap side up and let it work it's magic on the meat. Crisp fat in the oven when done.
My wife has a number of food rules, the most basic one being "no meat w 4 feet" so turkey thighs cooked in the ip often sub in for pork.
hpw many of you still rock the classic ski bum lunch, some packets of ketchup/ hotwater and crackers ?

I did used to bring a Cup-O-Noodles in my backpack for lunch every day and use condiments and saltines to spice things up a bit.
I knew a guy who every day would collect a pocket of pine needles from a spruce, bring it into the lodge, and make tea with the hot water from the coffee machine. Fuggin hippies.![]()
We were in a big rut a few years ago, eating the same 5-10 dinners. Then we got into HelloFresh. Life changing, flat out. We eat so many different things now, learned how to be better cooks, re-create many of the dishes, etc. Blue Apron is also good and the city folks have a lot more choices than we do. FWIW...
That’s one confused conifer.
Actually, spruce needle tea is pretty good, but it has properties similar to chamomile in that you might get a bit drowsy afterwards. Don’t imbibe before the long drive home.
As for what I eat, too damn much. Still chow down like someone half my age. Just a slight dad physique and all my recent blood and other tests are good, and my diet is or very near source to table, but I really should start missing a meal or two, if for no other reason than to give consideration to my poor mountain abused knees.
weekdays
breakfast-
eggs, olive oil, coffee, pomegranite juice
lunch-
chicken, spinach, tomatoes, broccoli
dinner-
chicken onions, garlic
snacks -
superfood drink, almonds, walnuts
all those listed are the food top for them on certain health benefits if you search them.
garlic - heart, onions - bones, brocolli - preventing some cancers, walnuts - keeping color in hair, etc.

I don't know how some of you don't eat breakfast. But I don't drink coffee, so what the hell do I know.
AM: Oatmeal and a banana; or three eggs, some sort of meat from the fridge, and toast or tortilla.
Nooner: Lunch meat sandwich. Spinach/lettuce wraps instead of bread when the garden is going. PB&J on rice cakes, string cheese/babybel/slice o' cheddar, apple.
Dinner: whatever's on the table. We eat relatively healthy considering we've got two picky midgets at the table with us.
My only real issue is I snack far too much. Especially when I'm on the road, it's too easy to just eat garbage constantly while driving.
Weekdays:
Breakfast - kind or nature valley bar, coffee, rare occasion a bagel w/cream cheese
Lunch - previous night leftovers, things from fridge kids won’t eat, ham/turkey on a tortilla, chips, apple or no sugar apple sauce, maybe an Oreo or three
Dinner - grilled salmon, chicken/steak tacos, Italian sausage, crock pot meal or soup, turkey or beef burgers, salad w/protein, stir fry…almost always protein, veggies and a starch. Favorites are roasted sheet pan veggies, recently did some sweet potatoes, cauliflower, evoo and seasoning that was really good and I don’t even like either of those offerings. Oven fries are also a go-to.
Also - agree pork butt smoked is the way, Smoke ring, bark, juicy and tender…but have to admit that the occasional shoulder or picnic roast thrown in the slow cooker with the right spices or marinade does just fine as a weekday meal (x3). Pork shoulder is a decent cut for other ways of cooking than smoke.
