    Breakfast 2019

    Only good for illegal sales....
  3. acorn squash, braised short rib, pork roast,
  4. Yup. It’s a trap that Top Chef contestants fall into every season.
  5. Maybe with spacers in the bottom pan to keep the water from getting pushed out by the weight of the upper pan. Something the size of the cap on a bottle of coke, maybe
  6. Or put in a pan of water
  7. IR thermometers are really cheap. I use mine all the time.
  8. True. But when you figure in clean up etc. I think my knife would be quicker
  9. I haven’t. It’s meant to homogenize rather than chop. Couple pulses might do it. You’d have to work in small batches so as not to have a big range of sizes

    Smoking Meat

    I wrap tight in foil and punch a single 2mm hole

    Smoking Meat

    If you wrap chips in foil to exclude air, they'll smoke nicely without burning.

    Smoking Meat

    I second @rotuts about the torch for the pellets. Makes it easy. Tin foil wrapped dry twigs cooked on a $10 hotplate will smoke for about 30 min. I usually do it for 30 to 60 min of cold smoke. Then cook, often sous vide

    Dinner 2019

    Nice. That tube burger at Olympic is raved about by the members and guests. But its just a hamburger in a hot dog roll, and I think, gives less meat than a regular burger. Your pork is a real upgrade.

    Smoking Meat

    When I prune the fruit trees I throw the suitable trimmings in a bucket to dry. Always there when I need smoke. Of course somebody always asks why we have a bucket of sticks...

    Maybe there are a few dead branches to Use?

    Smoking Meat

    Controversy here. Some do it...many more soak dried chips and then heat to smoking. In fact that’s the textbook advice for home smokers. To me this makes an acrid bitter smoke/steam, like a campfire smells when you douse it. Ewww. I don’t want that taste. I dont believe the big smoker machines use wet wood either. So so I use dried twigs wrapped in foil or even better the @rotuts pellet smoker. You get a blue sweet smoke that way. I can taste the difference
  18. I got a blendtech on sale years ago. I make soup twice a year. Expensive soup.
  19. I think home delivery is a real niche, but meal kits don’t seem to solve a problem for most people. And they aren’t cheap.
  20. Concept seems past its prime. No ads anymore...groupon offers appear.
  21. I have gotten these for travel https://www.amazon.com/Folgers-Coffee-Singles-Classic-Roast-19/dp/B07BFHNPGK/ref=sr_1_8?keywords=single+serve+coffee&qid=1571758033&sr=8-8

    Lunch 2019

    You beat me to it. I was going to say that it would be good after a night at the opera

    Burger King

    I recall a tot too small to deliver much cheese or tater. A lapse in the King’s good judgement.
  24. What odd way to name a chocolate. Perhaps a warning to pet owners?😀
