Spent part of today at Canadian Tire admiring the Phillip's Infrared Grill. I came home and looked into it some more. Does anyone besides @JoNorvelleWalker have one? Amazon has it on sale for $279 and they re throwing in a cleaning gadget. This year I've already bought the Control Freak and a back-up CSO. @rotuts and @Shelby insisted. I'm not sure I should be buying anything else. I sure do miss the toys I had at the house - the Weber gasser, The Big Green Egg, my electric smoker, my Weber charcoal grill. Maybe I wouldn't miss them so much if I had the Phillip's Grill.

Creole shrimp and grits. Grits made with corn stock and I included corn kernels. Garnished with green onions, cilantro and feta.

Good thing I don't like tuna.😁

Your guest isn't paying you.

Off course you blame Kerry. If I end up with one I'll blame her too. I just read the thread and see that I commented on it at the time. I had forgotten about that. I really, really, don't need another toy. I did forward the link to John because, well, Christmas is coming.

@JoNorvelleWalker please tell me what you really think about this grill.

Anyone have one of these?

I used to buy only Lanctantia cultured butter, which l loved. Then the price went north of $6 a pound so I changed to regular unsalted Lanctantia. It is sometimes on sale for less than $3 a pound and when it is, i buy a lot, wrap it and freeze it. I have about 10 pounds in the freezer from my last buying trip. I saw in today's flyers that some stores were selling it for $3.33 this week which is pretty good too.

Exactly.

I loved those. What I didn't like getting were apples.

When we lived in our house, we used to give out microwave bags of popcorn (unpopped). The popular reaction was, "Oh, boy! Popcorn". Kids loved getting it.

Right you are. Changed my post.

I use both, probably equally. I especially like sous vide for beef cuts.

Welcome to eGullet, Eric. Whereabouts in France are you?

Whew! How gullible I am.

I had a look at their web site. They are sold out of most things and besides which, they don't ship to Canda. Stuff looks good, though.

I'm dreaming of lamb shanks and polenta.

Thanks. I decided to go with 10 hours. They are on sale this week for a good price so I may get another one and try 4 hours.

I initially thought about 4 then the more I looked, the more varied the times, right up to 29 hours which to my mind is waaaaay too long. I don't want to eat mush. I say that from experience. I'd like to use this meat mainly for sandwiches, like Philly Steak .

I have a small sirloin roast I would like to cook sous vide at 133F. It is a AAA grade and measures about 5" in length and about 3" thick and weighs about 2 pounds. Any idea for how long I should cook this sous vide? My instinct suggests about 10 hours. Thanks.

@JoNorvelleWalker What temperature did you set the Paragon to?

That would be nice. It's a wider building so more chocolate!

Our next door neighbour gave us each one. She was recently in Brussels and I suppose she may have gone to France while there.

Sigh. I'm drooling.
