MacKenzie Posted October 15, 2015 Report Posted October 15, 2015 I had to get my strength up for bread baking- and while the bread is rising I needed a nice place to sit and enjoy my new blue tooth speaker and a glass of kombucha. I love listening to internet radio and Classic FM from London is my favourite. You can see that I've started closing things in for winter and will close in the top part above my chair too. My sour dough bread is ready for the 500F KK. About 20 mins. later and the bread is baked. and out of the pan. The bread is cool enough to be cut so I can show the crumb.
tony b Posted October 15, 2015 Report Posted October 15, 2015 Sweet! I envy your baking skills, MacKenzie!
5698k Posted October 15, 2015 Report Posted October 15, 2015 Wow, how do you suffer through it all!! Robert
MacKenzie Posted October 15, 2015 Author Report Posted October 15, 2015 Thanks everyone, I can tell you that the KK makes it a whole lot easier. The baking stone is wonderful although today I used the SS drip pan as a shield and a ceramic baker. Wasn't sure if it would crack since I put it in cold but it didn't at least not this time.
DennisLinkletter Posted October 15, 2015 Report Posted October 15, 2015 Awesome bake.. Thank you.. Posted on the KK Facebook page!
PRippley Posted October 15, 2015 Report Posted October 15, 2015 Beautiful, as usual MacKenzie! Thank you for posting. I am imagining butter on that bread and a nice glass of milk!
ckreef Posted October 15, 2015 Report Posted October 15, 2015 Great looking loaf of bread and great looking pictures.
MacKenzie Posted October 15, 2015 Author Report Posted October 15, 2015 Awesome bake.. Thank you.. Posted on the KK Facebook page! Thanks, Dennis. It's almost good enough to eat isn't it;) My KK cooker sure makes baking bread easy. As I've said many times that baking stone is awesome even if I didn't use it today and I'll probably say it again too.
GoFrogs91 Posted October 15, 2015 Report Posted October 15, 2015 Beautiful loaf of bread. Your baking is lovely. And I don't use the word lovely very often. Benton
RedStick Posted October 16, 2015 Report Posted October 16, 2015 MacKenzie - what a nice cook! I need lessons! I want to try my hand at making/baking French bread for some killer seafood poboys. Wow!
MacKenzie Posted October 16, 2015 Author Report Posted October 16, 2015 Thanks everyone. I was wondering how things would come out, now I'm looking forward to breakfast tomorrow;)
bosco Posted October 17, 2015 Report Posted October 17, 2015 moving past this amazing bread.... I need to know you're secret to grill maintenance. You're grills are always perfectly clean. Please share
MacKenzie Posted October 17, 2015 Author Report Posted October 17, 2015 bosco, I really don't do anything special. Mainly I do not let the crud build up and I very rarely put sauce on during the cook. If I do get into a real mess I have this for my main grate, although I haven't used it yet:) It's sits on the top of my lump bin and keeps the rain and soon the snow out. The whole thing slides under my countertop. For now I just use a stainless steel sponge, aka curly kate. The upper grate will fit in my kitchen sink. Believe me, I am not obsessed with cleaning.
tinyfish Posted October 17, 2015 Report Posted October 17, 2015 Do you really use your grates or do you have a second set of grates just for taken pictures...LOL. I scrape my grates all the time but their still black. I have to get some of that cleaner Tony.b recommeds.
tony b Posted October 17, 2015 Report Posted October 17, 2015 It's PBW - powdered brewers wash. A word of caution about using the metal scruffies, the wires can come out and get stuck in the grates and find it's way into your food. Just be careful.
