    Greecian chicken kabobs

    @DemonPit , consider this a tribute cook. Your meal looked so amazing, and I've not made Greek kebabs of any kind in far too long, so yesterday I set out to clone your meal. I used a similar marinade to what you described, but also added a bit of Greek yogurt, and reduced the marinade time to...

    Giving Ole’ Doc Baker’s recipe a try

    We LOVE Cornell chicken. Oddly enough, I didn't discover it until after I left there. Apparently I didn't get out enough while in grad school. You're right, the original recipe is too salty, but dialing back the salt is the only modification most people seem to make. Thanks for posting the...

    Hatch chili stew

    In all the years I lived in NJ, two things I could never find were tri-tip and Hatch chilis. And I searched hard for both. I previously posted that I recently moved back to my native Idaho, this time way up north in the panhandle. Imagine my delight in finding tri-tip everywhere; we even have...

    And I Thought I Had All the Gadgets

    It’s an electric spoon, for those times when stirring the pot by hand is just too much trouble.

    Lol, I'm deplorable!

    That’s pretty cool I wanna get the Ring doorbell version.

    Competition Prep

    Unless the competition is in one of the particularly lawless parts of Detroit/Southside Chicago/Camden/LA/etc, I doubt you'd need to resort to actual fencing, chain link or otherwise. I've never even seen yellow caution tape up at a competition site, though if you want something to more...

    What are you drinking today?

    Barley wines are way up there as well. I think some commercial ones hit 15%, and homebrewers have been known to push that much higher with special yeasts

    Smoking Cookies

    I dunno...is it really possible to improve on a good chocolate chip cookie?

    Different location…Same great service!

    Congratulations on your move! Now I wish I'd thought to get a photo as I finally left NJ in the rear view mirror a couple of weeks ago. But at least I did think to get this as I entered my new home state. Actually, my home state from many years ago...I'm so glad to be back. And the sunsets...

    Prayers for My Wife Please...

    Prayers sent! I’ve had two bouts of BCC/SCC, the price paid for way too much time in the sun while working on a ranch in my youth. I’ve been having yearly screenings done for years. The good news is that BCC/SCC could almost be considered ‘cancer lite’ in that they don’t tend to spread...

    New and interesting Smoking ideas wanted

    Leg of lamb comes out really nice on the smoker. We've done duck before. A couple of times a year I'll make a batch of beef jerky, and in the summer I'll smoke a bunch of veggies and use them to make a most excellent salsa.

    Cocktails Thread

    Margaritas are a favorite. One I enjoy making, and am still working to perfect, is the Caipirinha, Brazil's national drink. It's simple, just lime chunks muddled in a glass with sugar and cachacha, which is a South American sugar cane brandy. If you look for it, you can often find it in...

    Looking for basic flip phone that answers the call when its opened, no button needed.

    You want one of these...but they won't be available for awhile. Or else one of these, which ironically are no longer made. So you may need to wait for the past to catch up with the future to find what you seek. :emoji_wink:

    A butane torch that actually works?

    My son gave me a light saber butane torch for my birthday; this one, or one very much like it (Amazon seems to have a bunch of variants). No idea how well it works; that will have to wait. until after we move. I suspect it doesn't work as well as in the illustration. :emoji_wink: Light...

    Oh good grief .. $23 for a smashburger

    "Sean MacDonald, chef owner of Burgette in Santa Monica, Calif... I'll bet his first idea of a name for his burger restaurant was quickly smashed by a bunch of corporate attorneys with Golden Arches on their letterhead.

    How long would it take to thaw a bunch of pork shoulders and ribs?

    50 lbs is a lot...though adding it all at once will cause the fridge thermostat to stop cycling the compressor until the chamber temp comes back up to the set point. So at least you won't have the meat AND the fridge working together to delay the thawing. I don't have a solid answer, but I'd...

    Lobster fest

    Love me some lobster. I'm not diving offshore shipwrecks like I used to, but wrecks provide primo habitat for lobster, and NJ allows them to be taken by divers. I'd generally get them from sea bed into the pot in 4 hours or so--so fresh! Of course, the claws aren't rubber banded yet when...
