    How to light charcoal without a chimney?

    Some folks use a torch to light the coals. I use BGE starter squares. whatever you do, don't use lighter fluid.

    That made me laugh because it's so true. Mine would be the drunk uncle who swears like a sailor, love to see him come and love to see him go.

    Cold smoked pickled red onions. Onions absorb smoke really quickly so this doesn't take long at all. They do need to be cold smoke or the onions will start to sweat. While the onions are smoking put on a pot with water, vinegar and your favorite pickling spices. Cover the onions with the liquid...

    Seasoning hunt

    That's the same amchoor powder I have. It's nice and tangy. Another option for the OP would be buy some unsweetened dried mango and grind it in to a powder. This would be a sweeter version. Actually I think mixing the amchoor with it would be a perfect combo.

    No Casing Maple Breakfast Sausage Project Finished.............

    Awesome sausage Josie! Love the uniform circles, very professional. I have a very similar stuffer to the one you are getting. It works great, but clamping is a pain for me too. I'm actually thinking of mounting it to the SS work table. That means I'll have small holes in the table, but I'm...

    Oh yeah? Well fine then.

    I have so enjoyed reading this thread. You guys are a hoot. While being single does get lonely sometimes, I can joyfully say I cook whatever I want, when I want and invite who I want. It would be nice to have someone else to clean up my mess though. I swear, I clean up behind myself for the...

    Chicken Feet......

    Thank you sir! I've been making stock for many years and I've yet to make one that tastes as good as one made with the feet. For me quality is the most important thing here.

    Woohoo! Congrats Papa Bear!!! Thanksgiving morning I'll have these ready so everyone will not pick over my food while I'm cooking. That drives me nuts!! Anyway, this is my own invention. I make croissant dough from scratch then add lots of warm spices and more butter and roll them up in to...

    Chicken Feet......

    On average it would be 1 lb. for every 2 qts. water to get a nice stock. I like to add a few extra lbs. so that it's extremely gelatinous. I make more of a condensed version which means I can add more water to the recipe I'm using it for. Also, having it condensed means I can use a tablespoon or...
