CSO helped again :
CSO'd Daves , as mentioned above. bread is at least 10 - 11 days old , and kept
in the coldest part of the refrigerator. CSO # 6 toast directly from the refrigerator.
left too cool. light brown toasting , some crunch not too much
the TurkeyMeatLoaf
an award winning Rx of mine I have not made in some time
one pack of ShadyBrookFarms ground turkey . 20 oz.
I went w two eggs , and added larger amounts of TJ's Fr dijon ,
Bell's seasoning ( kept Fz and VacPacked )
RedBoat40 , Wrights Hicory lq smoke.
the ' panade ' was rolled oats
finely ground in a blade coffee grinder
Planned to use most of the loafs of sandwiches , room temp
so upped the ' flavorings '
I added quite a bit more ground oats than what I rfemember
as the ' mass ' was wet.
still it was fairly wet when it went into the
Pyrex ( original ) pan , w ' ClearAdvantage ' coating
( wait for it )
I started cooking @ 325 steam , as I wanted a lower temp
cooking. cranked the CSO up to 375 ( steam ) to get some color
on the tiop :
it still had some hints of ' pink '
and was very smooth and very tender , so
more like Pate , the kind that approaches
spreadability.
it was outstanding.
no bacon or bacon fat ( artisanal ) was added.
to make it an easier prep
so much tastier than
deli ham etc.
as you've been waiting patiently :
the pan had some dried ' fond ' on the bottom
usually , w bacon I bake at a higher temp
and get bacon fat and fond mixed together
and use it for gravy made at the3 same time
it had been so long since I made a TML
I was horrified at this potential loss of flavor.
I let the glass pan cool
and use a nylon spatula w a sharp edge to it
and all the fond scraped right up.
some was very dark , but not burnt.
that ' ClearAdvantage ' really works.
it in the refrig in a small pyrex prep bowl
for gravy add ins
( maybe after it cools off )
TML baked inside even w the CSO
is interesting when then temp inside is
low 80's , and outside its 90 F and v very humid
In The Day , I used to take the CSO outside
during Heat and use it that way. Same for the iPot.
P.S.: the TML=> Pate was tender and moist
I lucked out !
