  3. This wife has discovered the jet washer and is loving it. Clears all in its way and leaves everything moss/slime free without chemicals. I agree about planting a BBQ garden - paving and kit much lower maintenance than lawns!

  6. 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

  7. Both methods are great and I experiment with both often just to change up routine. I’ve also found that using the Sous Vide on thick steaks before a good sear is my favorite method; especially when everyone wants their steaks cooked to different temps. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  8. Pequod, the only tools you need will be a spatula to flip dem burgers, a Mapp torch to light your coals and a 3/8 in wrench (with handle) to clean your grates. It's the truth, and it will set you free. And it goes further, on laundry day just make sure it's raining outside and the next day that it's sunny, the floors in the house (hardwood) of course...tie some wet rags to your shoes and work while you walk. You get the point, if it hasn't been discovered, the answer is just around the corner. Simplify radicals, move them around, seems to me your surrounded by them around Washington.

  10. It’s our traditional meal for New Years. The peas are for luck and prosperity with the greens adding a little extra for wealth. Good stuff.

  13. As much as I'm extremely jealous of ckreef's Nuke Delta gaucho grill (Non traditional paella), and torn by Nuke's winter pricing, I'm most likely to want a quick fire to roast ingredients for a salsa. I'm instead taking advantage of winter pricing to upgrade my Solo Stove Campfire to a Solo Stove Ranger. I'm painfully aware of my earlier cultural prejudices, rejecting till now a molcajete in favor of a Thai mortar and pestle. Molcajetes looked like a sure-fire way to end up with rocks in my food. I didn't get it. Yes, there's a break in process which one can master, then a molcajete is superior to any mortar out there. Scraping sideways is fundamentally different from pounding, and the open volcanic hole structure is there for a reason. They make quick work of salsas, which one can whip up as quickly as the French whip up vinaigrette. Go to the trouble to correctly break one in; molcajetes are amazing. My stick blender should worry. As for the trouble to break in a molcajete: I sanded the abrupt edges of my Ancient Cookware molcajete, then smoothed the outer surfaces by vigorously rubbing with Abranet sanding fabric. One does want the texture from the many bubble holes in volcanic rock (other rocks are too smooth, and concrete mixtures aren't food safe), but the outer working surface will surely smooth after decades of use, leaving the bubble holes still exposed to shred ingredients. By speeding this smoothing process and also smoothing the outside surfaces, I both short-circuited the initial seasoning steps (grind rice multiple times till the powder stays white), and made the rock more of a celebration to hold. I look forward to the bigger molcajete I've ordered through Etsy. Nuke Delta gaucho grill Solo Stove Ranger Ancient Cookware 8" molcajete Mechuacan 10" Molcajete (Etsy) How to Season an Authentic Molcajete Mirka Abranet sanding disks Note that this Etsy seller offers many sizes (8", 10", 12", 14", 16") for a molcajete. Standard advice is to buy one you can pick up. The advice should instead be to buy the biggest one you can afford to ship. I'm pretty strong, I've been under-buying here. Once the 10" arrives, I'll decide what size I really want. The additional room will be welcome.

  15. Braved the 10F windchill last night to grill steaks - Denver steaks from Porter Road. I should have left them on the grill a few more minutes, as they were very rare. Still super tasty and tender though. Plated up steakhouse style with 2x baked spud and creamed spinach, with a nice blue cheese mushroom sauce.

  16. 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..

  17. A friend wanted me to source some of these Thai charcoal stoves. They are used for outdoor kitchen cooking mostly with woks and pots but also for grilling.. Made from clay with a galvanized bucket cost about $8 - $12 Thai stove being used roadside for grilling Bought a bunch of them for him.. Indonesian customs balked and rejected them.. ARGH and DOUBLE ARGH... So I made this up myself with my refractory hot-face material Then we tiled it to make it Komodo Kamado purdy! Yes I changed that leg design Will get better images of the finished beauty..
