  1. Thanks for the smiles, guys. Smoking experience was interesting, guess who took a chance on the smoker being clean enough for this smoke and lost. The good news is I thing the cheese is fine and I now have a clean smoker for the next time. Used Dennis's idea of the long T wrench for the large tube and I found this baked potato stand that works well on the little intake air tube. I is about 1/4 inch short but the perfect diameter. Once the tube is removed I can clean it from both ends, no problem.
  2. Yes, jalapeños so you'd think there'd be lots of flavour but not in my mind it didn't. let's hope the smoke helps.
  3. This cheese needed some serious taste improvement so I've decided to hickory smoke it. KK cold smoker in action.
  4. Syzygies, that would be the one. A beautiful tool and it works perfectly. I had a small amount of the home ground flour dough left so made some soup noodles.
  5. I made two different pasta doughs, one with home ground Durum wheat berries and white bread flour. The ravioli was stuffed with spinach, ricotta and Parmesan cheese. Cooked the ravioli and added it to mushrooms, garlic, spinach, semi dried tomatoes, some pepper and hot pepper and Parmesan cheese. The darker ravioli are made with the home ground flour (on the left hand side) and the white ravioli are made with regular white flour (on the right hand side).
  6. That's why we need to look at sous vide, maybe we could get her interested in the idea. A little study should show her that red/pink does not mean raw. I remember when I wanted well done steaks. It was sous vide cooking that cured me from that perception, thanks goodness.
  7. That is looking like a great idea. I have not done one yet. Looking forward to seeing it cooked and sliced for dinner.
  8. Have your tried introducing your wife to sous vide steak? Once you get her used to the fully cooked steak that is still red/pink inside then she won't be so apt to turn down the steak that looks the same from the KK.
  9. Basher, it does look juicy and I'm sure it was tasty.
  10. Aussie, you've got yourself a smoke ring and a tasty dinner.
  11. Sliced and taste tested. Here's how to spoil your dinner.
  12. I used the cake pan with aluminium disc for this sour dough bread. Can't wait to cut and taste it. It is going to fit nicely into the toaster.
  13. Kids do the darndest things.
  14. This should help cool you off, Aussie. Looks like more of the same again last night.
  15. I spent a good portion of the day clearing snow off the deck, we had 4 inches overnight and it started up again in the later afternoon. I couldn't believe my ears when the radio said it will feel like -14C overnight, my carrots are still in the ground and I need to plant my garlic for next year.
  16. Basher, that is indeed a very tasty looking cook.
