Thanks Mac actually I’m cooking the rice as we speak

Hey guys and gals I’m no Connoisseur of rice. Me I just like to buy cooking equipment LOL. When I was a mechanic I love buying tools. I’ve switch from tools to kitchen equipment. Anyway I got my butane bottles today so tomorrow morning I’m gonna cook some rice. Please don’t get weaked kneed or twitter and bistrd on my Account.

Ooo meat seasonings sounds good thanks Jon. I bought the awatani supposed to put out 12,000 btu’s

Thanks Jon soon as I get my Butane burner I’ll give it a try

Jon what temp do you use when cooking the rice. All the instructions say medium to medium low for 12 to 15 minutes? Seems to high to me. When I was seasoning the donabe I had my gas range as low as it would go and it still boiled over, of course I didn’t have the inner lid on so maybe that makes a difference? Any information would be appreciated . Thanks

Thanks Tekobo. Thankfully you can find just about anything about anything on U Tube LOL I’ll post some photo just as soon as I get everything setup.

Thanks Mac! Rice tomorrow I bought a butane portable stove just for the rice pot. I get the stove tomorrow

Well I cooked the pork shoulder took 8 1/2 hours. Taste pretty good moist and smoky. Also I am seasoning my komado san rice pot, pictures attached. I’ll cook some rice in it tomorrow. I have to be honest I cooked the pork in the Treager, next one will be in my KK. About 11 minutes left on the rice pot seasoning then let it cool wash and ready to use.

I love your meals Mac they always look so deeeelicioud! The deck and view look beautiful even if it is raining. We could use some of that rain here.

Mac I hope warmer weather arrives soon. And bears only come around at night or preferably not at all.

Thanks Jon, on Father’s Day I made rice in my multi cooker with veggy broth saffron and peas. Yours sounds really good I’ll have to try it.

Yeah that looks like a real problem. Hope can find a nice open spot to put up your umbrella and lay out your blanket LOL

First you have to make sure that the bottom is completely dry otherwise it could crack. Then after you’ve washed it you fill about 80% full of water and put in 1/5 of the amount of water with cooked rice. Cook it for an hour or until the water and rice become I guess you could call it porridge. And I guess this mixture Fills up the microscopic holes in the Clay. This is a one time only seasoning. And then you’re ready to cook your rice. I’ll post some pictures of some cooked rice LOL

Well I received my donabe rice cooker today. But the instructions are all in Japanese go figure. Anyway I looked up how to season it on YouTube and will probably season it tomorrow. Then I can cook some rice in it. I’m also going to cook a pork butt tomorrow and make some pulled pork. This will be the first port butt that I’ve ever cooked so wish me luck. I gave it a good rub down today with some mustard and some pork rub and its in the refrigerator till tomorrow morning. I haven’t decided Whether to cook it on my Traeger or on my KK. I know, I know! use the KK. But I’m trying to get good using both. Pictures to follow
