    Dinner 2018

    @HungryChris excellent work and planning on your part. the food looked wonderful.
  4. Bouillabaisse is a different matter. when Ive had it in , yes , Marseille it was not that tomato-eh. but I agree , its odd I don't care for tomatoes a fish/shelfish. Im not equating it w Green Bells , and I like tomatoes in so many other dishes. not F/SF no explanation that I can come up with , no bad memories etc just that the dishes above would seem better to me if you ran out of tomatoes just before you started making them. its odd.
  5. guess you need a short but low gauge extension cord to add to the new cord is there anything you can see on the new cord that different ? its very hard to find short low gauge cords. although one can make them easily enough. intriguing. better that than Snow , any day.
  6. think how outstanding the above would be if it were Hellman's in the little Boat.
  7. P.S.: i hope I remember to do this test : on both the 48 and 66 weigh the meat ' out of the bag ' and weigh the jus to see if the additional time added to the jus. I no longer have easy access to test the NaCl content of the jus. since texture is fine at ' 66 ' , more just might mean less salt in the meat. a + Id say.
  8. I couldn't stand it any longer : I made a simple sandwich out of a hunk of ' 66 ' : it was cold , and I did not ' de-salt ' the meat as I usually do. I was hungry Im very pleased to report that the meat was not mealy in any way. it tasted fine. I can't tell you if its that much more tender than ' 48 ' as I did not do a side-by-side the good news for me is that its not mealy. it is salty , as was the jus. no harm was done to the meat w the additional time at 140 F yes , F meat does taste better the C meat. I had minor concern as my Cb sat in its original bags in the refrig for about a week until I could get to it. several years ago I let he Cb sit much longer in the refrig , but before the sell - date , and that batch ended up mealy for some reason 140 x 48. the lesson Im taking home , and placing in the Red SV book is : > 48 is fine , and possibly preferred. thanks again to @curls for the ref. on different times for Cb > 48 offers much more flexibility on Start / Finish times I can tell this meat will be much better at room temp and briefly De-Salted.
  9. I decided to extend my cook to see is 60 + was different. due to time issues i now have 5 bags of ' 66 ' will try one later for lunch as a sandwich. no pic : look the same as ' 48 ' I do wonder if they have more jus though

    @HungryChris I looked up your ship looks like a Cut above the rest. I have not been on a Modern Cruise , i.e. a ship that ends up where it started. I have been around the World twice on two very large ( for then ) P&O ships . they took you somewhere , and you got off. all was included , maybe not wine. some friends have , and they thought it was simply a Feeding Trough of below average food your does not can you tell us how the various dining rooms work ? reservation ? surchage ? etc many thanks
  11. the CB cooked at these higher temps ends up like a braise. If braise is what you want , then fine but Ive yet to encounter a braise that had the mouth-feel of an appropriate temp'd and timed SV of course . you get that ' gravy ' but otherwise ..... I like most of the gravy to still be in the meat.

    Breakfast! 2018

    @HungryChris that is so ,my kind os cruse.
  13. So Far , So Good : based on @curls ref. and some endemic lazy-ness here : 50 hrs deliciousness was Revealed : brought the bags downstairs , and decided to take 4 - 5 and put in the Local SV'der for an overnight : w some plastic bags to preserve moisture : then a towel for some Thermodynamics : Ill take these out in the Am and chill as I did w the bulk: first cold tap water ( 42 degrees ) for a bit , then a drain and more cold water w Fresh snow : I let this sit for some time then dry , and refrigerate very cold or freeze. Im interesting in learning if more than 50 H makes a significant difference on the 4 - 5 140 over-nighters. heers ! I do hope to cold smoke many of these on the SnowBound Webber tomorrow or the next day the debag cold and freeze.
  14. But ..... can you take off a Tire ? Fox Urine ? see Soooo much potential. please see the Complete show there are after all Bentons Bacon , Real Deal Ham Hocks bacon trimmings ? see ? this is not Chuck on sale at the Local Market but Really Really Good Good Eats 1 look into the Local Urine Issue and it might take Two , not one Tire ' reconfigured ' just saying.
  15. InDeed ! maybe @Anna N the LL-ladies need to Motor Down to Buffalo and study the BetterCallSaul vid https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LoyDXFaOlkA the MooLa is in the Tire ie : Cheeses . smoked pork shanks etc but you need to take your ' Coche ' or ' Carro ' to some weedy place to put Your Goods in the tire Id recommend some Fox Urine , or what ever the Hunters use Above the Border to mask scents for the Working labradors , of the Mouties see ? Easy weeds in Buffalo might be important.
  16. perhaps 1/2 of a beat. those potato chips look sublime. and no Im not getting an AF I could trade in my BV-XL @ BB&B fore the newer one but Im so lazy.
  17. BTW @Anna N not that Im keeping track you have MoodyBlue , and I don't. even at a higher-end ( RocheBro's ) grocery store , does not carry it. they do carry other cheezzezz from that Maker . Ive thought about going to a very high end cheese chop in that same town on the main drag , that probably carry it, as Id love to try it . but my https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carte_Jaune is out of date. so we are abouout even, sorry , I don't know how to spell ' about ' in Canadiene-esse Im probably a bit to a lot ahead as TJ's doesn't have every cheese but they have enough for me at abouoot 30 % less. More for Wine , Id say. Im not a big cheddar fan , and in VT there are some very very fine ones but this is soooo good Ill get a few more Tranches and vacbag and freeze i still have two or more of Last Years flavored cheddar ( green plastic rind s horseradish etc ) in the FB Im pretty much a Vac'd freezer Rat. PS this is the place : http://www.wasiks.com One P.P.S. : @Anna N you do seem to Wrangle some pretty decent Calamari from time to time so , Kudos go your way.
  18. I don't use the spice packet for SV. I used to use it for the simmer method. mine's not Wagman's , but there is a Wag. opening soon very near me. they took over the local Macy's in the local Maul. I try to be careful w industrial salt. when i make sandwiches , I slice the cooked CB thin , and soak it in ice-water for a bit and pat dry. I think it tastes much better that way. same for commercial ham ( ion a sandwich ) Ive tried soaking the portioned CB before SV and never got anywhere with is and it was a lot of extra work. the jus in the bag of the cooked meat goes into the iPot w some water to cook the potatoes , carrots and float the cabbage on top for iPotting the veg. ive thickened that liquid , I don't add a lot of water , and made a nice sauce fir the CBDinner.
  19. and in Red to Boot ! VIVO Commercial Grade Red 1/2" French Fry Cutter with Suction Feet / Potato Slicer / 1/2 inch Blade

    @Toliver no TB near me how hot is there ' fire ' ?
  21. snow not bad at all went to Tj's for some No5 : its cur thinner here : melted over melted a bit. superb cheese . fantastic flavor and just the right among of grainy-ness I don't know about enjoying it w Oaked Reds. nothing goes w Oaked Reds except the recycling bin. Tomato Toasties tonight ! I also ordered two cases of the Ige burgundy. this cheese is cut thin here , not a problem. but look your tranche over as some were EndCuts a 100 % riind maybe good , maybe not.
