    Accurate oven thermometer?

    Well, I wont be retrofitting my oven with a PID controller so I'll have to just deal with it! :emoji_laughing: At least I know what the deal is now. I dont do a lot of frozen take and bake stuff either. If the Stouffers family sized lasagnas goes on a great sale I'll grab one maybe once or...

    off topic. Mama wants a new electric wok

    This is true, even IF one has a typical residential gas burner, you simply cant cook "proper" Asian stir fry because you will never get the "breath of the wok" flavor. Took me years to learn that. I think it was J Kenji Lopez-Alt that woke me up to this reality. Once I understood this, I just...

    Propane grill recommendations

    After searching for one myself I bought this one And good thing, it doesn't even look like Weber is offering them anymore. Weber Spirit II E-310 I have only used it once, so I haven't reported back to my thread yet asking for the same advice. I'm getting ready to use it quite a bit real soon...

    Accurate oven thermometer?

    Finally following up on this. It was a while before I had a chance to test the ThermoPro and still I've only used it twice with only one of the probes. Takes a couple brain cells to understand how to set it at first but it seems to work fine...

    What are you listening to ?

    Molly Hatchet came across my MP3 mix while I was splitting wood this weekend. Timeless. This one (below) has been stuck in my head since then too. I only had the original from somewhere (I even have stuff from back in the Napster days in my permanent best-of mix) and when I went to link to it...

    Wood fired pizza - Primo

    Nice. I love the puffy looking crust. I mean, I like pretty much all crust on all pizzas so I'm easy to please 👍

    Creme Brulee

    The only real sugar in this is the turbanado on top. I dont know of an SF alternative for the proper brulee. I think I tried an Erythritol based "brown sugar" once and it doesn't behave the same. It's only just enough to barely cover the top, about a teaspoon. I've never worked with allulose...

    A German style potatoe salad

    Love a warm potato salad, especially in the fall/winter. I like a bit more salt but in my salad that comes from my sauce which has 1/4 cup of beef bouillon (for a two serving batch) made a bit strong along with the vinegar and mustard...and bacon of course. Have you ever tried warm spinach...

    Pork Steaks

    Looks good. Pork steaks have just never been a thing in my world, then again I've always thought pork chops were overrated...but people love them. I bet they ARE good slathered in that sauce.

    Smoked Chuck Birria Tacos

    OK, that's it. I'm going to have to smoke a chuck this season. Been a while, and birria tacos just went back on the meals list for the future too. Curious about your build there. Did you do anything to the tortillas before they hit the pan?

    Found it… Finally!

    Welcome to the club...you DO know "It's got twang"...right? :emoji_laughing: I mean, you just dont find "Twang" laying around everywhere... Dukes and Hellmans are the only mayo's I lick the spoon or knife of before washing! Curious what you mean about hard core keto and Dukes. There are no...

    Creme Brulee

    Forgot to link that sweetener. I just ordered 4 one pound bags. Made it less expensive than amazon. It's good till 2028. If you are a low carber, gluten free, etc.. Netrition has a lot of products. Not cheap but they have stuff you wont find at the grocery store. Free shipping if you spend...

    Creme Brulee

    Thanks everybody. We'll probably have another serving tonight. I'll try to get that brulee sugar totally melted this time! I usually make a sugar free raspberry compote to go on top but I didn't have any frozen raspberries in the freezer and this was kind of last minute trying to use up some...
