They were a pretty popular accessory on the old POSK site (one of the few things that RJ got right). I never owned one, but I could see them being used on certain cooks/cold smokes.

Isn't it listed on the spec sheet on the main website??

Excellent. His voice reminds me a lot of Sting's.

The master of shorties!

LOL! Did they cancel school?? I grew up in the South and school was cancelled if we saw any snow on the ground - period! Tonight's dinner - a Trader Joe's Cabernet Pot Roast, with an extra hit of coarse black pepper, indirect, over coffee wood charcoal, with chunks of mesquite and post oak, at 250F. Plated with melting potatoes, steamed broccoli and mushroom gravy.

[Bevis & Butthead laugh] - He said snags!

You're killing me with that grilled cheese sammy, MacKenzie!

Yeah, they were very modern in style.

I've seen Old Hickory knives, but never owned one. At $17 a clip, a set of 10 would get pricey! Yeah, non-serrated steak knives are not the norm anymore. I have a nice set of Cutco, but they are serrated. Quick Amazon search found this set from Chicago Cutlery, who make good knives. Maybe you can get them Downunder? https://smile.amazon.com/Chicago-Cutlery-1134937-Fusion-Pieces/dp/B07L3LBSV4 This set looks really nice, but a bit pricey, but it's only a set of 8. Not very familiar with Dalstrong, so I can't say much about their quality. Good reviews though. https://smile.amazon.com/DALSTRONG-Steak-Knives-Folding-Block/dp/B07ZJPXZDL

I haven't done any extensive work with them yet, so we'll see how they stack up to hand fatigue and comfort.

Well, I did it again. Another Kickstarter knife set. Different guy, but the same idea - Japanese style knives made in Germany. He's only making paring knives, which is why I went for it, seeing as I have a bazillion Chef's knives already! They finally arrived yesterday. Sorry for the dirty cutting board. I didn't realize it was schmutzed until after I took the picture. Nice feel to them and they were pretty sharp right out of the box - paper test. I did give them a quick stroke on the steel and good to go! I didn't have the heart to dirty them yet, but soon!

True!

My "non Super Bowl" dinner (I watched the Puppy Bowl instead - Go Team Fluff!! - ha, ha!) - nice Bavette steaks from Porter Road, 2x baked spud, sautéed mushrooms, steamed broccoli, olive bread and some chimichurri sauce.

Definitely a "must" for the shrimp & grits!

Makes you wonder though, if it can't hold temperature stable and on setpoint for sous vide, how well a job does it do on it's other "regular" functions??

Indeed!

I was definitely put off by the high price, despite the recommendation from Brock.

Another key, they should be "stone ground" grits. A bit coarser, more texture, than say, polenta.

So, the InstaPot isn't "magic" after all!

Nice use of the half grate.

As intended! 😁
