  1. My issue with refrigerator ice makers is how often they break down. Our GE Profile ice maker has been put to rest, so I like the idea of a free-standing ice maker a lot. Until it acts like a refrigerator ice maker and craps out.

    Crawfish boils

  3. Our crappy GE Profile fridge has a completely unreliable thermostat. Laser boy is indispensable for checks. The other fun use is looking for cool/hot spots in pans and how long it takes a pan to even out the temp. Our last dog was so addicted to chasing the dot that all I had to do was open its drawer to set him off. @rotuts you need this

    Dinner 2018

    I chill/dry them by sitting on a plate in the fridge. I get a great sear if I fry them in butter. Probably some milk protein in the sear...but they look good and aren't overdone
