Self indulgent cook for one. My husband is not so keen on heavily aged meat and I like my meat rarer than him so him being away for work was a great opportunity. Dry brining in the fridge Cooked indirect on the 23, with some parsnip poutine and whole beetroot in foil in the foreground. Anticipation Happiness. I finished the poutine under the grill in the house with pecorino and soft gorgonzola. All my favourite things. And the meat cooked just right for me.

made it a day early, it was pretty good, not the glass skin i was looking for but crispy. some patches of the skin did not brown and keeping it roasting longer may have burned it so it got pulled.. i basically sat in front of the oven for 3 hours tending to fire and rotating the roasting pan😓

Well, you are certainly committed to the concept, if not the actual practice... 😉

i've never heard of this machine. thanks for the introduction.

I will be trying the air fryer capabilities. I've avoided the air fryer temptation mainly due to space limitations and already having a convection oven but a recent coffee maker upgrade will be freeing up some storage space and I'll be able to rotate some gadgets from storage to counter top as needed. There are several things that I like that I rarely fix due to them not being worth the clean-up effort (French fries, etc.) but are prime candidates for air frying; this week's visit to the grocery store will be interesting. Speaking of the new coffee maker, I need to start a thread on that too...

old dry ager blew a condenser. meet black edition dry ager. purchased using a trade in program by giving them my busted one. i’m on my second unit and haven’t dry aged a damn thing …😝

starting the preparations... i cut off the feets (can't eat them and will burn anyway) washed it in beer, rinse and dry. split the bottom of the mouth and split the spine so it opens up flat. sprinkled a bit of salt in the cavity and back in the fridge to dry. roasting it thursday night. further video research, i think i will just do a gentle prick of the skin on the second half of the cook skin side up.

Cats love boxes for some odd reason. Dogs couldn't care less - well, my dog Buddy would like to chew on the flaps! 😄 @tekobo - hear yah! No grilling here this week. Blizzard starting tomorrow evening. Temps dropping below Zero (F) and crazy winds to go with the 6 - 10 inches of snow that's predicted. Bah, Humbug!
