  1. Willie, what provides the heat. I can't tell from the picture? Also what's in the pie pan?
  2. I've used a soldering iron for several years before it just stopped working and had to be replaced. Mine is runs into a metal can with a vent pipe elbow into my Masterbuilt smoker. The handle doesn't even get warm. With such a small smoke house and a really nice one at that. Great job. You may want to consider an external smoke generator piped into the smoke house. You could then manage the smoke generator without opening the door and would be do heat added to the smoke box
  3. Sliced grilled flank steak on crusty Cuban bread with Swiss for lunch today
  4. That stall can be a bitch
  5. I grew up with hoppin John of collards and black-eyed peas but with flanken instead of ham hocks (kosher) and still like them but I've been making my version of Texas caviar the last several years. Eat it year round but on New Years add a chiffonade of raw or wilted collars to the salad. In fact I'll be making them this year at our small NY party. It's just a darn good cold bean salad.
  6. I had an issue with a replacement V1. I was told to just gently bend the rod straight
  7. I think the Kentucky connection is as close to bourbon as it gets
  8. Actually JD meets the legal definition of bourbon but they would like to keep it labeled as Tennessee whiskey to make the product stand out from the crowed of better bourbons and be compared with the smaller group I which includes Dickel and others better Tennessee whiskies.
  9. Mostly there was one thick tendon separating those two muscles and some tendon and small odd pieces of meat near the side of the roast. With my knife and a pair of forceps I was able to remove that big tendon with little loss of meat. Leaving a crevice but clean roast as a result
  10. The surgical site
  11. I picked a shoulder roast at the store the other day. Spent a little time cleaning it up and removing thick tendons and odd small muscle groups Cooked it at 135 for 24 hrs. Chilled it off and rubbed a slurry of Better Than Bouillon on the surface and hit it with the Searzal then sliced it. Will make nice roast beef sandwiches
  12. I get that "rust" on both my V1 and 2 probes. Seems more pronounced on the V2. Didn't Anova Jeff say it was a non issue here on eG when we first noticed it on the V1 model?
  13. That does look good. I'll admit to liking fruit and other spiced cakes
  14. Best to keep the steam in and let it condense back to the bath. A well fitting lid with a collar around the hole cut out to seal in evaporation
  15. Pretty sure there is a warranty option Mine has seen a lot of action since arriving. All's well to date
  16. Chocolate covered short ribs. Wow the reduction looks incredible! My weak spot is braised meats. Just love them, any time of year
  17. Thinking along the same lines. Thought about ravioli for the 2nd pack of oxtail meat. It was getting late last night
  18. Finally got the right texture with homemade pasta tonight I used my SV oxtail to make this dish. After cooling the oxtails I pulled as much meat as I could from the bones and tucked it away in the fridge. I sautéed onion,carrot,celery and garlic then added some stock and the shaggy tail bones to the pot and let it cook for a couple of hours. Removed the bones and narly bits and wizzed it smooth with the Bamix and let it reduce some more while I made the pasta. Added the meat to some sauce to warm while getting my pasta water hot
  19. Care to share the recipe?
  20. Unless you're sipping while cooking
  21. You may want to try a wheated bourbon like Makers Mark, Old Weller Antique, WL Weller, Old Fitzgerald to name a few. A bit sweeter without the rye spice
  22. Thanks
  23. Any oil in your recipe?
  24. Looking for a tried and true recipe. I'm not experienced (done it a few times but not often) with pasta making but would like to make pappardelle with an oxtail ragu with the SV oxtail I have churning away. In searching recipes I see a wide range of the use of eggs. For ~ 2 cups of flour I've seen recipes that call from 2-6 eggs. That's a big difference which has me asking what is the best ratio from my fellow eG members I may have use of a manual pasta machine but would also consider rolling it out by hand on a board and cutting it Any advice would be appreciated

    Breakfast! 2014

    A slice of corn bread with a fried egg on top this morning. My wife hates runny whites so used the Searzall to cook the top without flipping the egg. Firmed up the white without over cooking the yolk
