    Re: Rib Roast pic

    Let me clarify....

    I have never felt the need or desire to clean a grill before. I was content to scrape them, and burn them off. BUT, the shiny robust stainless nature of my new grill got to me and I started cleaning it. It then dawned on me that I would never think of cooking on a caked on burnt mess anywhere else.

    Step in Dennis, who advised me of the water heater drain pan trick, and now i can keep them shiny clean with a quick soak and scrub.

    I am a radiation oncologist, and we do anal retentive really well. A good thing I would say!

    It is nearly new!

    AND, Dennis (knowing I am a typical anal physician) told me about getting a water heater drain pan, so I can wash my grates outside. I never used to wash my grates on my old grill, but these are so shiny! Also, when do you cook on a dirty surface inside your house?

    Re: Best vacuum packer? (FoodSaver alternatives?)

    After much consideration I bought a chamber sealer last week. I wanted to freeze soups and stews....

    I bought the Vacmaster VP112, an almost commercial device. It is nice, though large and heavy. i think i made the right decision for my uses. I paid 670 delivered but have since found it for 600 on Black Friday...oh well :mad: why did I look?

    I made 3 vats of soup this weekend, and it worked great. Turkey/stuffing...Split pea...and beef vegetable.

    Since water boils at room temperature at low pressure, you dial back the suction to just when it starts to boil, then seal.

    They were probably about that heavy.... It is built like a tank.

    I really enjoy cooking on this thing! I opened it once in 4.5 hours to check on the rack accross the top, it was fine.

    This weekend I am going to cook a pork butt. I can't wait.

    Re: Alice our new puppy is in the house!

    I have only seen the pic, but I was told it was a litter of shih tzu.....

    My little girl Ibiza looks like a Saint Bernard with the right haircut, or like a English Sheep Dog with a different cut.

    As long as you don't have anything near her for perspective. She weighs eight pounds.

    It is unusual for Shih Tzu to have more than 2-3 pups. The mother only weighs 9 pounds!
