    A little vodka experiment

    Interesting.... Don't care for vodka, but it got me thinking about gin. Might pick up some Military Special at the Class VI and give it a try... Won't risk good gin, but worth a try.

    Slot Grill?

    I saw an ad for this type of collapsible, portable grill, and think it would be something to keep in my vehicle when fishing, exploring... Any experience with these? Thanks.

    Cornish Game Hens

    Thank you! I divide the kettle in half with bricks. Fill one side with coals, placed chickens on the "cold" side, vent over chickens. About 20 minutes, then turned. They were very good, crispy skin. I prefer these over the ones I've done in a dutch oven using coals.

    Thank you! I can get them at the commissary for a decent price. Always keep three or 4 in the freezer.

    What Is Sous Vide? Chefs Explain, and Reveal Whether It’s a Worthy Investment

    Looks great. The OP posted about the Pros/Cons of sous vide, and had determined it was a safety issue he didn't want to risk. I don't think it was ever a "this technique is better than that techniue issue". And believe it or not, you don’t need smoke for great tasting food.

    What Is Sous Vide? Chefs Explain, and Reveal Whether It’s a Worthy Investment

    I have 2 units. Have done steaks prior to searing, and have used it to ferment sausages and to bring them to finished temp. I use pasteurization charts for time, temp and diameter/thickness of product. Totally safe as far as I'm concerned.

    Pickle Time

    I haven't been doing it for real long, but add it to the hobby list. I love going to the kitchen and grabbing some pickles, canned chicken or beef, or some stew for a easy, good tasting meal!

    Pickle Time

    7qts Polish Dill out of the waterbath. I added pickle crisp to each jar, a garlic clove, black mustard seed, peppercorns, and a little crushed red pepper to each jar.

    Cast iron brands

    I have Lodge, Wagner and Griswold. Once I got the knack of seasoning them, I makes little to no difference in which brand you choose.

    A couple of weeks ago I did a side-by-side between Glazier and Hofmanns. Glazier was the clear winner. Best local in my opinion.

    These were right next to the Glazier Pickled Eggs! Together, thet make a deadly combination.
