So I came home late last night from a local Goth/Deathrock event with a busted lip and a sore back after being tossed around like a ragdoll with a really empty stomach. I looked in the fridge and instantly thought how great an omelet would feel going down my gullet. However, I always have problems flipping them, as in I don't think I've ever done it with great success. I proceed anyway. I pretty much just grab whatever, as I figure anything can go in an omelet. IIRC I used onions, tomatoes, bell peppers, and corned beef torn into little pieces. I throw it all in, not at all once, but in an orderly fashion. Now where it gets odd is that I remember using orange and tequila to create a sort of gastrique...I don't remember how, lol. Anyway to get the point, everything goes perfectly, and I remember flipping the omelet like it was second nature. It turned out to be a glorious meal. The best breakfast I've ever made.

....I tried to make it again this morning and it turned out horrible.


Has anyone else experienced this drunk cooking phenomenon?
 
I don't need to eat when I'm drunk but sometimes I'll cram a couple slices of white bread down my throat before going to bed. It's pretty good.
 
We weren't drunk, but when i was with some of my White college guy friends one time, we decided it was a good idea that we make Twinkie Cheese dogs (which were twinkies with hotdogs inside and topped off with Cheesewiz) and we decided to wash it down with milk that was obtained by the drawing straws.

I luckily picked the chocolate milk
The guy who picked the buttermilk was destroyed at the end of the night ...
so much vomit... the horror.... the horror..

Anyways the food was brilliant but it never tasted good again.
 
Once I wanted to make a chicken curry (Indian - Madras) but I realised that the only chicken I had was southern fried. So I used that. And it was gorgeous.
 
Mix Kettle Chips "spicy thai" flavor non-ridged chips with Pacific Foods Roasted Red Pepper tomato soup. IT TASTES LIKE WEIRD ELECTRICITY.
 
Similar situation to OP, my friend and I were really drunk and came back to stay at a friend's house. We looked through their fridge for something to eat but it was all crap. Then, in the back of the fridge, I saw a package of strawberries. "Bingo," I thought. But when I inspected them further I discovered they were really moldy. There was only one solution: COOK them! That will get rid of the mold!

We grabbed a pan, put it on the stove, and dumped in the moldy strawberries. I said, "we need some liquid to cook it in" so we poured some beer into the pan. My friend also found some rum and we poured that in there as well. After a few minutes of sauteeing the strawberries, the kitchen now smells like strawberries and rum. I tried one and it was ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING. Think of eating a moldy, hot strawberry that oozes hot rum and beer when you bite into it.

Don't sautee moldy strawberries in alcohol.
 
Behold the purpleness of my boozy stew! 90% wine, 10% short ribs and veg. Two bottles of wine, some in me, lots in the stew. Seemed like a good idea at that sloshy time, and damn it was so good. Even better the next day when I added rice. I love drunk cooking.

Boozy Stew
 
Was slightly buzzed last night. Decided to put bacon bits, fresh cilantro, jalepeno, and salsa on my Nachos. Best decision I've made under the influence in days.
 
Steak sammich, usuing a 16 oz sirloin. Grilled it up, cooked a pizza crust in the oven till it was nice and soft, yet not gooey. Topped the steak with cheese, A1, tomatos, onions and lettuce. Cut the crust up to properly fit the steak. Sliced the steak sammich in half, and enjoyed.

Yeah you gotta be really careful, a couple of months back a local Rugby Union player died when he got home from a grand final celebration put the stove on to cook something up and promptly passed out in the kitchen.

Not to ruin the thread.... love a good random feed when having a drink.
Usually I'll grab whatever meat is in the fridge (sausages/bacon/ham), chuck it on some toast and grill cheese all over it.

90% wine? you'd be better off drinking all that.

I'd had a glass of it, but found I didn't care for it much and didn't want it to go to waste, so cooking seemed like a good way to utilize it. I don't usually use that much wine, though, so it was a bit of an experiment. Happily, it tasted great.

I'm half Mexican, half Irish, so I'm pretty much doomed on that front. :) J/k.

The stew itself, though heavily wine-based, bubbled merrily for about 3 hours, so doubt there was much alcohol left after that, and I didn't finish the other bottle, but did make a valiant effort over the course of 5 hours. Not too crazy overall. I recommend it!
 
I haven't invented anything crazy, but I once came home drunk, put a frozen pizza in the oven, and passed out. Waking up to smoke everywhere and my roommates screaming at me was bewildering.
 
Usually this just means I put one thing between two pieces of another thing and add 3-4 assorted toppings/condiments.

Like, say, a slice of beef and mushroom lasagna on a soft pretzel sliced lengthwise, topped with broccoli rabe, a smear of chicken liver pate, and a dab of tzatziki sauce.

Another recent one was three hotdogs topped with leftover (reheated) slow-cooked brisket, muenster cheese, fried onions, and spicy mustard on a toasted salt bagel. That shit was delicious.

Hahaha!!

In the dorms in college, my roommate acidentally peed his pants one night after everyone had passed out. He decided to take a shower in our awesome dorm room with a private bathroom. I guess he turned the water on super hot, waited for it to get hot, then for some reason decided to close the bathroom door and go back to sleep. With the shower still running.

I wake up early the next morning thinking, "WTF is that noise?" It sounds like the toilet has been running all morning. So I open the bathroom door and am immediately blasted with an immense cloud of steam that almost made me pass out. Two seconds later, the fire alarm goes off. In the entire dorm. Early on a Saturday morning. I've never seen so many upset, hungover students waiting outside in their PJs while the staff figures out what caused the alarm.

We somehow never got in trouble for it though.
 
I have never been drunk, but I once made an amazing sandwhich with hollandaise, turkey, mozzerella, italian dressing, apple cider vinegar, raspberries and a portugese roll
 
my bro once put something in the over, waited 45 mins, then took it out only to realize he never turned the oven on hahaha. it was pretty funny at the time
