    Oven baked ribs

    Usually I just buy pre-cooked ribs as it's simple to do. Few people tell me that making your own is great, so I decided to try. Local store had some ungraded ribs on sale for $8.00, so I bought Had a long lump of meat on the back that wasn't attached, so that removed. Some fat and meat...

    Neighborhood pizza oven

    During my daily walk. I walk by this house with an extended polished smoke stack in the backyard. Turns out. The woman is a friend of another whose dog I know (I know the dogs names - not the owners), so I asked if I could take a look Pizza oven one of the previous owners built. New owner...

    Video games?

    Early on. Every weapon is important. Grab whatever you can and use it to trade for ammo or caps. I tried playing FO3 on my computer with WIN10 and a pain. Too much stalling out

    Not happy with my oven roasted brisket (again)

    Rechecking and rewriting instructions. Never put a pickle in with the brisket, but pickles are part of the meal. I always bought Strubs, but turns out they filed for bankruptcy. Figures as they were about $2 - $3 more than other brands at retailers. Full sour, but found a similar replacement...

    Video games?

    FPS games for me. Mainly Fallout, Doom and Half Life Best thing about the Fallout Series is mods that coders create to keep the game going and interesting. Nothing new. Saw a couple, but one requires you lead people through a wasteland. I usually tend to get them shot so I don't have to...

    Nuking a steak

    Some supplied ideas after the steaks were cooked, but I went with jcam222 and his reverse sear link. The pan was mentioned to be super hot. The link said ripping hot. My dial has 1-9 Check on line and some said 6 was fine. Anything hotter could warp the pan (one I used was 2.5 mm thick) 3...

    Nuking a steak

    Oven cooked and into the pan. Sorry, but no butter or herbs. I'm a heretic in that I like ketchup with my steak and a can of Coke. Some pink inside. Easily chewable and not bad Maybe a new BBQ next summer Thanks DON

    Nuking a steak

    Here's what I'm doing 250 for 35 minutes and then reverse sear in a steel pan Doing 2 steaks and pan that holds 2 has a plastic handle, so no popping in the oven. One with steel can only hold one Will check the temp with my new thermopop for 125 and reverse sear to 140 if all goes well. If...

    Nuking a steak

    Sounds good. Have an old steel pan and someone mention on a sear search for ripping hot to heat pan to 6 on oven burner. Anything more not good, but hot as you can get it is 9 on the oven burner. Which is better? Also. How long each side on the sear? Anything in pan? Dab of oil? Thanks DON

    Nuking a steak

    Nuking a steak. My fingers were bigger than my eyes and a butcher cut me some 1.5" striploins (ordered the day before so not pre checked). I no longer have a BBQ which means broiling in the oven. Fine for thinner steaks, but I think the outsides will cook faster leaving the inside too raw and...

    Not happy with my oven roasted brisket (again)

    I place the potatoes in 1.5 hours before slicing. Thats why I try to calculate when both will be ready at the same time

    Not happy with my oven roasted brisket (again)

    That was posted above, but no mention of an oven temp. One I helped my mother with before she passed. Was in at 350. Good or bad temp? Also. My thermometer only goes to 190, so I guess I need a new one Anyone recommend something within a reasonable price that you trust? Under $30.00 as I...

    Not happy with my oven roasted brisket (again)

    When I pushed the probe in. No resistance. Went in nice and easy, so I figured based on what I've read that meat continues to cook when wrapped up, so I didn't want to overcook it

    Not happy with my oven roasted brisket (again)

    Problem is. I also do the roasted potatoes in the roasting pan with juices from the roast and added water, so wrapped foil method won't work This is the problem with trying to Google a simple recipe. Everybody has a different answer. The current method was based off the 1 h and 15 m per...

    Not happy with my oven roasted brisket (again)

    When I took it out. Temp was 180 and then wrapped up in foil Had an in ground BBQ, but got torn out for some house work. Also. Down a flight of stairs in the sunlight, so never bothered to replace it. Figured the water would keep it moist in a sealed roasting pan Maybe try his way for next...

    Not happy with my oven roasted brisket (again)

    Usually I place the flat in a small amount of water in the bottom of a covered roasting pan. This time. I placed on a low rack just barely above the water temp at 300 and 3 hours for a 2.8 pound flat. 1/2 out covered in foil Rub was 2x tsp's of black pepper, kosher salt. 1 tsp of garlic...

    Mrs CivilSmoker’s Curry & Rice Bowls

    Odd. Can't quote to a reply. Price is less than in Canada ($6.00 Canadian pound based on the exchange rate) US also has 7.8x the number of beef cattle than Canada, so guessing that majority of beef prices will be lower Nobody ever puts them on sale Thanks DON
