  1. I’m wondering why they decided to put “everything” on top of the unit, as opposed to how the controls/electronics/whatever were on the. Side, in the 300? Does it make sense that to be directly above the heat source?
  2. Let's not forget Judy Rogers, and her awesome roast chicken at Zuni Cafe... But even years before this, if my memory would only serve me correctly, was the technique I learned from (I think) Sunset - dry brining salmon, for instance, before smoking it on the Weber - which was pretty much all that was available back in the early 80s. It formed, I believe, the pellicle.
  3. Oh, I didn't realize we were supposed to clean that glass!
  4. Often, ice is called for in drinks specifically for dilution.
  5. Definitely not available here.

    Dinner 2025

    The farmer's market is indeed in full swing: And when it is, I like to go crazy with tomatoes (and a few plums, in front). After tasting these, it's going to be hard to go back to Camparis or Kumatos. In any event: Jersey white corn, sautéed with zucchini, sweet onion, and a few of those tomatoes up top. Served with pasta marinara, which I've posted enough pictures of.
  7. I actually do this now with most all chicken I cook. Salted lightly as well.

    The menu, and the fromages, bring a touch of envy here.

    Dinner 2025

    Last night we walked (literally) down the block to Ernesto's (a very local Basque-inspired restaurant), sat at the bar, had cocktails, 2 pintxos (Croquetas de gallina and Tosta de gambas) and shared a main along with a beefsteak tomato salad for our dinner. Pluma Iberica con patatas fritas y piquillos. With wine. I kinda forgot how good this place can be, but last night it was just fine.
  10. Those Boos islands are nice. One might be able to customize them as well: https://butcherblockco.com/product/cowota?product_id=120&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=17347491098&gbraid=0AAAAADyvdXfTW1QIpvTZTAqRYm4idBKZ6&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIv8Wtt8vljgMVZDcIBR1MTgrVEAQYASABEgINcPD_BwE

    Giblets

    They make a great sauce for pasta… https://www.pastagrammar.com/post/fettuccine-with-chicken-giblets-authentic-italian-pasta-recipe
  12. And also realize that AI isn't the answer to everything!
  13. When I got my large butcher block for part of my countertop, I literally spent weeks oiling both sides of it, prior to its installation.
  14. My knives cut through paper plates. But - you do you.
  15. On top of?
