Jon B. Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 First cook in a week after driving Mother Dear's car to Florida for her......................... Cherry wood smoked a nice, locally raised, skirt steak on the KK at 250* (oops, no grill photos......running around like a mad man trying to get everything done at the same time) Whole grain rice with green onions, hot garlic, fresh ginger and mixed veggies. Cooked in the Donabe Kamado San in chicken stock (check out this link). Fresh scallops cooked on the Himalayan salt block with garlic olive oil & spices (on the gasser). Dinner is served.................. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ckreef Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 That looks really fantastic. How do you like the salt block? I've been thinking about getting one lately. Charles - Prometheus 16.5", Cassiopeia 19" TT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon B. Posted January 7, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 The salt block is a "fun" cooking toy. Because of the size, we only use it for smaller cooks....like the scallops. Perfect for a 2 person cook. Would I have one......if Red Head Sue didn't work at Williams-Sonoma .....not so sure???? We use it about 5 times a year. I can't keep it on the boat in the summer..............draws moisture & sweats. The metal holder/rack that came with ours does help to keep it "aired out". I have to store it in the cooking trailer. It is a nice to have accessory and it does work well when we have used it. Now the rice cooker is another story.............couldn't live without it !!!!!! Love that cooking tool.

Rak Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 I've been thinking about a Himalayan salt block for a while, but maybe I'll hold off for now. Just not sure how often I'd use it, especially with my new toy on its way! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon B. Posted January 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2016 Where in FL Joe Pensacola Mom has been going down to the Sarasota /Bradenton area for 35 years. She had a condo down there, sold it when Dad died but still goes down for 3 - 4 months during the winter. Keeps her 86 year old bones moving!!!

Jon B. Posted January 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2016 Looks like the KK of ceramic rice cookers. Nice, but expensive. I couldn't cook rice to save my life until I got this cooker. It is a little expensive but works like a charm (idiot proof). We do a lot of one pot rice dinners with leftover grill meat & veggies. The old school history and look is fun also.

Does great for cooking rice but really to small for one pot meals. Charles - Prometheus 16.5", Cassiopeia 19" TT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon B. Posted January 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2016 Jon B - You are always welcome to stop by here. I would be honored to stop and say hello! I have had the privilege over the years to be able to meet a number of my on-line bbq friends. Hoping to meet Rak next weekend and also dropping by Bosco's house to peek at his new set-up. This April I will be in tony b's neck of the woods and hope to hoist a cold one in his honor. I will be sure to let you know when I'm headed your way!!!!!
