Meatloaf is the dinner offering for today, along with PC sweet potatoe and a little spinach. Glazing meatloaf. Dinner is plated.

What are those things you talk about? I've never heard of them. Plant a proper BBQ garden and never worry about those other foreign items.

Turned out well mixed this with the Cray.. .. The ribs turned out great..And plated yum.. Sent from my SM-T835 using Tapatalk

Thanks. 👍🙂 Spelling on both English and Danish’s is a problem. Good thing that I mostly work with numbers. 😂

Friends over tonight. Two boned out pork shoulders. One seasoned with green, black and purple peppercorns and chillie. The other is kid friendly. That’s an apple in between them for air circulation. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I am posting this with a heavy heart. I appreciate all of you and the friendships made over the years. I love cooking with my KK’s and everything that comes with it... but I am done in 2020. This is taking up too much of my time. I am struggling to keep up with the everyday chores of cooking, cleaning and maintaining my home, so something has to give. I have decided to get rid of my gear. Below is a list of what's available. Serious inquiries only, and please don't insult me with low offers. Thanks for reading and understanding... 1. Vacuum cleaner 2. Dustpan and brush 3. Mop and bucket 4. Lawn Mower 5. Leaf blower 6. Laundry detergent 7. Iron 8. Broom

I agree, it sure a fantastic cook, love it😍

I put the chips into a bowl and then heat them in the microwave to blow off some steam/lower the moisture content .. They seem to smolder much better if you reduce the moisture.. at least here in humid Bali.. I think it also burns off more undesirables when drier, so a bit cleaner smoke too..

LOL you mean everybody does not have a maid, gardener and driver full time? Ahh the joys of third-world living! Who cleans your grates when they are greasy? And you thought I lived here for the fun and sun..

Surf and turf supreme nice cook Aussie, and as usual a great salad

That is very true and with a forward sear since you are ending with a low cooking temperature you don't get any residual cooking when resting the meat.

Forward sear has the advantage of pulling at desired doneness, vs. shooting for 10-15 below with reverse sear and then hope you don’t overshoot.

The popularity of a reverse sear comes from the fact that you only need one grill to do a reverse sear and the average person only has one grill. A forward sear in most cases requires 2 grills.

I don't plant flowers in my garden I grow grills. Shovel the grass off a new garden section. Plant a few hundred dollars in the ground. Cover with some pavers and in a few weeks even you could grow a grill Yea the porch is officially full. Any future additions will have to go in my BBQ garden.

I'm a big fan of the forward sear. It just gives a better wall to wall MD rare since you are searing raw meat. With a reverse sear you are searing meat that is basically already at temp so you end up with a gray line just under the sear. If it's a thin cut I just do a direct cook and not bother with a separate sear phase. They say a picture is worth 1,000 words. Here is a good example of a forward sear.

Started the day with two loaves of sourdough. Steamy in there without any extra moisture added. Both of the boys were rolling today. Roast beast on the 32 whilst the 23 cranked out the appetizers and sides.

Happy Holidays! We have enjoyed the 65f and sunny . . . so KK Pizza last night and holiday ham tonight.

Merry Xmas everyone, hope you’re all having a great time with friends and family over the holidays. We spent Xmas day at my wife’s family’s. they requested beef ribs which I’ve cooked before and they all loved them, needless to say that this time was no exception.

Just what we need, two of them![emoji35] Go ahead rub it in about the sandy beaches and hot weather, I can handle anything especially a snow shovel. [emoji41]

Looking good . Sent from my SM-T835 using Tapatalk

Fleming you must be on the good list with cooks like that. Merry Xmas to all. Just to throw you northern hemisphere dwellers off, I’ll be sitting on a beach under shade and swimming on the hour at a place called Tugun. Look it up, it’s a magic place. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

My sister lives in the same town as our @tony b and I tried to catch up with him last year during a visit but he was off to a distant beer festival and I missed him. On Sunday evening before Thanksgiving, I found out a family friend had passed away and decided to drive to Iowa for the funeral. Didn't get a chance to check with Tony in real time, so I sent a e-mail and took a chance he would be there. So before I took off on Monday morning, I stopped at the grocery store and bought a bunch of Syracuse based BBQ products. The plan was to use them to bribe Tony into sharing some of his award winning home brew . As I was driving to Iowa, Tony sent me a text message with the bad news.........he was flying to Chicago for the Holidays. Rats!!!! Foiled again.........No home brew!!!!! Hoping for future "beer credits"..........I left the BBQ care package with my sister to take to Tony this week. My nephew is getting married this coming summer in Tony's town....................maybe the third time will be a charm

I was as bummed as Jon. Fingers crossed that 3rd times the charm! Beer festival this year is in Nashville - June 16 - 21. Here's why I was in Chicago - Blackout Friday - the annual release of Goose Island's Bourbon County Stout (and variations). Special tasting at the brewery.
