Outfitting a kitchen for cooking

Christmas came in full swing this year.

The following have been added to my collection:

A meat tenderizer (thanks, little bro)
A mini Cuisinart food chopper (I wanted one of these, but didn't tell anyone)
A second new stock pot, awesomely heavy stainless steel frying pan, cheese grater, silicone brush, and a REGULAR can opener. (I can't tell you how much I wanted a regular darn can opener!)

What do to now?
Chop something, anything, with the food chopper.
Throw away that crazy other can opener (oh wait, I found time to do that Christmas morning.)
Make a meal that requires two stock pots.
Figure out how to use stainless steel fry-ware.

Tonight we're having Roast Beef Sandwiches.

Sliced deli roast beef
Rolls
American (me) and Provolone Cheese (him), sliced
Brown gravy packet, prepared using 1 cup water

Cook brown gravy as directed, adding in sliced beef before simmering. The beef will cook a little. Lay cheese out on open roll. Spoon meat and your preferred amount of gravy. Enjoy. Easy and yum. Pair with some Clausen pickle spears, since they're on sale this week ;)
