    MSG

    Boy am I putting my neck on the dogma and anecdotal chopping block over this but I think it is so important to you great cooks and chefs that I'm going to risk it. MSG is one of the 5 perceived tastes. If we do not use it we are depriving our food of 20% of its potential taste. (not entirely...

    First smoke and first Qview

    I in no way want to downplay the importance of food safety but in 2011 there were 30 deaths from Salmonella (most from vegetables)  and 26 deaths from lightening strikes. I'm going to eat chicken, fish in the rain and eat raw oysters in 2012.

    Smoke pistol smoke generator

    Same experience here on the Smoke Pistol. Bought the Ama-z-in smoker and love it. Pistol works great one or two times--after that I have to use a drill to get the gunk out of the nozzle. The Ama-z-in will let you mix pellets the pistol does not. I just smoked a ham with a mixture of...

    Smoke Pistol

    Smoke Pistol. I've had enough smokes with this thing now to give my 2 cents worth. This was a waste of $60 bucks--It's another one of those gizmos that seem like a good idea but just doesn't work. Why? Even following the instructions to a T it is difficult to keep it smoking but the main...

    Help starting Bouginvilla's from clipping

    I had a nursery that propagated about 5000 Boughs a year from a giant mother plant with 90% success rate. Make sure the mother plant is well watered for a couple of days prior to taking cuttings.
