There is no such thing as too sweet for me, so maybe too much for him. Last time I’d tried I used some red delicious.Do you normally have different levels of tolerances for sweets? Honeycrisp tend to be pretty sweet already.
I bet some vanilla ice-cream would have helped.
I'm just joking but it does sound really sweet.

Your husband may just be like me. I don't mind sweet things, I don't crave them but I don't mind then. But for some reason I really, really dislike apple in any savory dish. Most other fruit I don't mind but no thanks to apple.

That's my thought. Sweet is fine, but it's got to be balanced by spice or acidity. Add a bit of soy or garlic for umami.Do you normally have different levels of tolerances for sweets? Honeycrisp tend to be pretty sweet already.

I don't mind sweet flavorings on proteins, but if the dish tastes like a dessert why the hell am I not eating dessert. Chicken is also pretty damn bland, so the apples are just going to override any of the chicken flavor, or what little there is. Maybe if you have toned some of the sweetness down and did this with a pork loin or a thick chop, you might get better results.
Hey some people like it though so if it tastes good to you so be it, definitely not my cup of tea.

Husband had me get some vanilla beans so he could use the pods to infuse some of his vodka and bourbon with. I’d get the pods he didn’t need and shoved those right into my sugar. Smells damn good.

If you do a lot of baking this is precisely how you make your own vanilla extract.

Yes, most people use Vodka - high proof - the longer it sits the stronger it gets. I think 3months is about the minimum - some people have 2+ year batches.
A big bag of like 50 B-grade beans on amazon aint that bad. I was going to make some for myself for use, and buy little bottles to give as gifts.

I am currently in New Mexico, here to visit my in laws (Gravy's family).
I have not seen them since the FUNeral.
I arrived yesterday afternoon and am already in food heaven. My sister in-law, Liz made her chile Colorado last night. Holy guacamole (she made that too) was it good. I'm in the land of yum.
Will get some recipes while I am here!
