Im sort of seeing the nameplate behind that guys head saying "rational" which makes combi ovens. But I couldn't find anything like this on eBay. I did find several smallish combis in the <$3000 range...

I have done this myself. Its what got me steamed up about combi ovens

There's a bunch of vollrath on amazon

Tell us about your combi oven

Sounds like a fake restaurant name is needed

Potato salad and wings

That makes some sense. And in ranges, the insulation on a commercial unit is less than a home range, so it requires clearance from cabinets that would be ugly in the average home.

Fatty asparagus?

Looking at all the varied stuff that they sell with their name on it, I'd think that some of it must be made for them.

My sense says that this has something to do with Volrath's suppliers who, perhaps, make a "non commercial" line as well. Perhaps Volrath has agreed to avoid competition with that. Otherwise, why would they care?

looks like an older version of this https://www.bluestarcooking.com/cooking/ovens/30-gas-wall-oven/ Note the similar design above and below the doors

I think I'd do a cure x 2 days then SV. Probably 140f X at least a day, maybe 2 and then sandwiches with augmented jus. Or treat like a beef short rib and braise x 3hrs with onions/carrot/tomato paste and red wine. Perhaps serve with spaetzle. I think I like plan B.

Chicken saltimboca, Mashed potatoes, sprout slaw cooked in bacon fat with onions and cranzins

how about Fish and Freedom Fries?

Braising short ribs makes a beautiful dish. Red wine...a little soy...onions... garlic...tbsp tomato paste....a hint of 5 spice or cinnamon.

Indeed. In an interview he said that he actually took it easy on them for legal reasons. So it was worse. Some of the bad kitchen culture discussed on another thread.

Beaten , Seared and Sauced. An account of a writer's 2 years at CIA. Entertaining airplane reading. Like the Ruhlman experience, the time at CIA was transformative for the author. Excellence and dedication was expected and half-assed efforts were called-out. When I read Ruhlman's account of his transformation at the CIA years ago, I thought that he must've been a singularly feckless turd entering the program. I was too hard on him. Most young folk are feckless turds, I've come to learn, who never are exposed to situations that demand excellence. What a shame.

The color of trout flesh is an interesting question. Native fish with orange flesh are sea-run rainbows i.e. Steelhead as Heidi said. They get the color from ocean crustaceans and shellfish. Otherwise fresh water trout are grey or white fleshed But apparently some fresh water farmed trout are fed a diet that gives orange flesh. Why I don't know. A knockoff salmon industry?

Every day looks like Moe's birthday, to me.

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.

It is the beginning of the degradation of crawfish boils. Look at what W. Puck did to pizza.

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

@JoNorvelleWalker You have one of these? I use t he heck out of it. https://www.amazon.com/Etekcity-Lasergrip-1080-Non-contact-Thermometer/dp/B00DMI632G/ref=sr_1_5?s=home-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1527166463&sr=1-5&keywords=laser+thermometer

The Red Hat Ladies are just a step behind them.

"In recent weeks, Mr. Batali has been talking with friends and associates about whether a comeback or a new career might be possible " He could cook in the prison kitchen perhaps.
