    Seared steak stuck to cast iron pan??

    Odd thing is I checked the temp while in the oven and it said 180. Could be mistaken, but steak was like butter. No hard or chewy areas. Costco boneless ribeye. Still have 2 others to try out

    Seared steak stuck to cast iron pan??

    Thanks Responding to all answers Pan was brand new. Never used. I did the edge and thats when I noticed it sticking. Didn't water test as pan had a thin oil layer. Temp on the stove is what I use for breaded chicken or veal cutlets for frying, so hot, but not super hot. Next time. Just...

    Cast iron pan or steel griddle

    Cast iron pan or steel griddle

    Was thinking about buying a 10" Lodge cast iron pan, but I recalled I also have my mothers old Frigidaire steel griddle which I make hamburgers on It's 3/16" thick. Figured I could sear steaks on it. Still testing ways to oven cook thick steaks. Tried a previous method someone mentioned with...

    Oven baked ribs

    Thanks for the info on cooking. Will save and try it next time, but have 4 precooked in the freezer so will be awhile. Not sure on the unit. About $65.00 here in Canada and currently have a Thermopop 2 I bought awhile ago. Not sure how your unit would work with an oven if the door can't be...

    Oven baked ribs

    I make a brisket once or twice per year and first time with ribs. Kind of pointless to buy a smoker for that. Not the best quality ribs and as mentioned. Membrane was tough to remove. Maybe at the end of the year. I'll try better quality Thanks DON

    Oven baked ribs

    Thanks. I cut the rack in half due to length. Pulled out some foil (didn't pull enough to wrap side by side) and just decided to go back to a single length. Pans I had wasn't long enough to hold the whole length, so bolted 2 separate ones together. Can test and have my pop to check Thanks DON

    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...

    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
