Yeah, for sure, the pic sucks. The sauce is ketchup, worchestershire sauce, and honey (I added a touch of soy), and no bread crumbs, you use white bread soaked in milk. It's fantastic. The sauce looks brown in the pic, but it's a deep red. [Reply]
Yesterday afternoon i ate at papa bob's in Bonner springs.
It was very good. They have a bunch of different style sauces. They will put a bunch out to try for first timers.
The ghost pepper one was my favorite. But i didn't hate any of them [Reply]

Use flash when taking photo.
Problem solved!
That's the right advice.
Can also shoot in another area where there is better light. I've actually laid my plates down on my patio or front steps for test shots until I get the right light—a light that will reveal the true color. [Reply]

If you're shooting with a cell phone, those little LED flashes suck, and pictures with them generally suck, too.
Outside is good. I do that almost always. Daylight but shaded, good light. [Reply]

and then you are left with brickloaf, no moisture what so ever :-) [Reply]

Outdoor is always better. I don't use my cell phone to shoot my pictures. I never, or very, very rarely need to use the flash. Even cheap cameras today, have a feature with what looks like Levels that can be used to improve tone and contrast. I have a skylight over my kitchen table....but I have to shoot when there's enough daylight or light coming down.
Tooge's kitchen stove area is dark and he left the meat on foil which is highly reflective. [Reply]

I've got some great camera gear, but if I pulled that out every time I took food pics, I wouldn't ever take food pics. I want to eat, so I want fast and easy, and that usually means my cell. [Reply]
my sweet and sour meat loaf i make, i use a casserole dish and prop the loaf shape up with cut up potatoes. the last twenty minutes i uncover to brown the taters. personally i never cook a meatloaf in a pan by itself. the sweet and sour grease that soaks into the potatoes is heaven, with a lil salt and pepper of course. :-) [Reply]
Spare ribs (St. Louis cut) have been smoking for 2 hours. Just spritzed them with my sweet/sour mix. Sweet corn from the farmer's market and a salad. [Reply]
