    SV Beef Tenderloin (From Down-Under)

    I remember some of your older SV cooks with eye of round where you cooked at 132 for 23 hours. Why the change to 32 hours? I've done some at 23-24 hours and they were very tender.

    Pork Shortage?

    Be interesting to see if the supply starts to dry up. It may take awhile to see any effects of the closings if there any.

    Pork Shortage?

    With the news of several large pork processing plants shutting down, wonder what how this will affect prices and supply. Pulled pork may get expensive to make. Thoughts?

    How to use mild jalepenos

    I grow a lot of heatless jalapenos every year and pickle several jars. I throw a few regular ones in as well with some garlic and cumin.

    Keeping burgers hot after grilling

    Never tried with butter, just beer and onion. My favorite is a Leinenkugel's Sunset Wheat when I can get it here.

    Keeping burgers hot after grilling

    I grew up in WI, grandparents lived in Sheboygan. Spent a lot of weekends there and consumed a lot of brats. The Sheboygan brat is the flavor profile I aim for when making mine. Sheboygan is known as the brat capitol of the U.S. after all.

    Keeping burgers hot after grilling

    No, you're only keeping them warm (140-150 degrees) not cooking them.

    Only use a half of a beer. The other half is reserved for taste testing.:D

    Keeping burgers hot after grilling

    A crockpot with water and beer in it is a common way to keep them hot.
