    Skinny Fatties - Replace sausage with ground chuck???

    I've done fatties with ground chuck before with no problems.  For stuffing you can do things like onions, green/red/yellow peppers, etc for the calorie conscious, they turn out pretty nicely still.  I did Philly Cheese Steak style fatties a couple weeks ago (think all the ingredient of a Philly...

    This weekend's Fatties

    No sliced pics, family was too ravenous to let me snap a pic before they disappeared.  The stuffing was leftover pulled pork that I bagged and froze about a month ago (I know, how do you get leftover pulled pork?  Easy, I did two entire Boston Butts at the same time, at one, froze one!)

    "Sous Vide" Discussion

    It's really interesting to me to have a sous vide machine that can hold things at fridge temperatures and then heat up and cook at a pre determined time.  That said I'm not sure that this unit would be the one for me ... it seems a bit gimmicky.  I love my immersion circulator in terms of how...

    Ribs: smoker to grill

    I've done the same type thing a couple times now, 3-2 part of the cook then flash freeze them, but I reheat them in vacuum bag and sous vide for about an hour, then I throw them on the grill at high heat (or just pull out a torch and torch them) for a few minutes -- sometimes, but not always...
