It's the adjustable height clamp. Allows a lot more flexibility in what size pots/containers you can use with it

Good to know. Thanks!

Paul, I do recommend a sous vide circulator and that bag juice is  liquid gold

Anything you recommend must be worth it. Your cooking is just the bomb!!

Most of us here that have immersion circulators have the Anova

Yeah I'm dragging my feet.

I looked at the one you got your nephew and it looks nice. I was also looking at this one ;

Is one way better than the other? The price is close.

About to put a strip steak in the sous vide for dinner tonight. Best part - using the jus in the bag to season the sauteed mushrooms to go on top!

I've got to get a SV. Using the jus to sauté the mushrooms in would be fantastic!

I find mint is only good in candy and getting rid of mice never liked it with lamb

Agreed! Skip the mint. I might have to try this one day.

Um...yeah. I hunt, fish, camp, love the outdoors, and so on but I just don't have any need for things that slither.

BAHAHAHAH...Rabbit the other white meat.

Interesting. Looks to be about 6" to 8" of grill space around the outside. Get one of these and I can tell the grandkids its for cooking doughnuts. Although your ABT and stuffed mushrooms look pretty darn good.

I love mushrooms....especially on steaks (your meal looks wonderful)..........but Redhead Sue is deathly allergic to them

Thanks. I have a redheaded Sue also. We both love mushrooms so we pretty much have them every time we have steak.

So I have to ask. Do they just open the door themselves and walk right in? or do they find a small 6 inch crack somewhere and squeeze through?

So the wife wanted a steak the other night. I'm not sure why I don't get pics when the food is on the KK. Anyways, A steak, baked (KK) potatoes, grilled (KK) asparagus, and mushrooms.

The steaks were salted and rested for a few hours then patted dry and re-seasoned before going on the grill

Asparagus, mushrooms, and onion at the ready. Oh...and a Lagunitas little sumpin' sumpin' for the nerves.

Mushrooms and onion get sautéed on the wood stove.

And on the plate

It was tasty and the wife enjoyed it!

That is a nice caulking job. Did you use the damp plastic spoon trick? Most of the time I get more caulking on my fingers and cloths than the project.

Umm...no thanks! I don't mind spiders as long as they stay a manageable size. That one is big enough to need a kill-switch!!

That is a good looking chop! I like the hint of pink. Not the usual dried out chop that taste like it was cooked on the sun.

I've been to the Sierra Nevada brewery a couple of times. It's about 2 hours away from where I live. Another good one is the Mendocino Brewing Co. Their Red Tail Ale is really good!! YUM!!

just cracking into my first beer

Is that a Sierra Nevada pale ale in that pint from Northern California? I love their pale ale!

It's the best for the price point - IMHO. There are some others out there that are a bit cheaper. I just ordered this one for my nephew's birthday. Got good reviews on Amazon. Fingers crossed

Thanks for the tip. I haven't done any research yet. I better get busy.

I had a really nasty hand injury in the 80’s. Bad enough to force a career change. I’m very happy you’re returning to work soon and your same job to boot!

I'll break the rule also. My next will be the BB 32 KK. I have a 16" KK, Weber Kettle performer, and 36" Weber Rancher. Between the four I should be able to handle just about any cook.

Looks like it will hold a fire. Lets cook something.

I cooked breakfast ON the woodstove the other morning.

My grandparents had a similar set. The fork with the leg / kickstand brought back the memory.

I have a b-day coming up towards the end of the month. Might have to order one of these Anova SV tools.

Good job on the restore. Definitely a labor of love.
