MacKenzie Posted July 4, 2018 Report Share Posted July 4, 2018 Syzygies, "For anyone who thinks I was already crazy to use flour paste to seal my smoke pot lid, I'm sorry to introduce the complication of preheating the Dutch oven. It however worked amazingly well." I just bet it did and now it's the cat's meow.:) That was just the tip I needed. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacKenzie Posted July 4, 2018 Report Share Posted July 4, 2018 Speaking of Campfires, I started one tonight during the heat wave we are having. It is in the Turkish grill. Due to the infestation of black flies I am watching it from inside my sunroom. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony b Posted July 5, 2018 Report Share Posted July 5, 2018 Sorry that the flies ruined your campfire experience. It was bloody hot/humid here yesterday - 103F heat index!! Beers were cold and tasty though! 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacKenzie Posted July 5, 2018 Report Share Posted July 5, 2018 I'll bet those beers were tasty. I had the window up so I could hear the snap crackle pop.:) It is 99F with the humidity factored in. One more day and this will be over, back to low 70s on Sat. and Sun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony b Posted July 5, 2018 Report Share Posted July 5, 2018 (edited) Same here - heat wave is supposed to break tomorrow! About a third of the folks at this party were from my homebrewing club, including the host, so yeah, lots of tasty beers! I took a nap when I got home - LOL!!

Steve M Posted July 5, 2018 Report Share Posted July 5, 2018 Hope everybody has been doing ok, I've missed my kk friends. I smoked some St. Louis cut ribs from Costco yesterday. Turned out great. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turned out great. @Steve M I like your ribs but, weirdly for 6:52am on a weekday morning, I am even more attracted to the cold beer that you have as your profile picture. I will blame it on the heatwave that we are having in the UK rather than my latent alchoholism. Looking forward to a cold cider later. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MacKenzie Posted July 6, 2018 Report Share Posted July 6, 2018 I made Syzygies' Spanish Onion and Potato Casserole today, just didn't have the Marash Pepper but did add some heat. Served with previously grilled chicken and first batch of spinach for the season. I loved the casserole and will be doing it again and again. The spinach leaves were huge although they don't look like it in the pix. They were the size of my hand and I was a little concerned that they might be tough. I steamed the spinach and it was lovely. Plated. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tekobo Posted July 6, 2018 Report Share Posted July 6, 2018 Very nice looking potato dish Mac. And your spinach is looking great, given how cold you have had it for so long. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pequod Posted July 6, 2018 Report Share Posted July 6, 2018 Shish Tawuq using a simple Aleppo Pepper marinade from the book, “Aromas of Aleppo”. Very tasty indeed. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chanly1983 Posted July 7, 2018 Report Share Posted July 7, 2018 Tonight we made seared ahi tuna steaks covered in sesame seeds and purple crack with grilled asparagus and red onions in balsamic vinegar. I have made a version of this recipe for the last 15 years but it’s my 1st time making it on my KK, my wife said “hands down the best one yet!” 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
