Turns out it is a meal from Whole Foods - they used to get from a small market but decided to switch this year I may try to spin on Vieluxe if it will fit. Will smoke enhance the taste if already precooked and what variety of smoking chips? ThermoWorks just updated their app to address the RFX...

325f Oil or butter on skin 1 to 1.25h until heated through Rest at least 15m

Dunno yet but I figured it’s probably in disposable foil pan for convenience I was thinking I could add smoke or crisp up skin… but will it improve the turkey and is it worth the trouble at this point? I think the Vieluxe IR burner has enough clearance for a small bird - could also add chips...

My sister in law ordered a complete thanksgiving meal from a high end caterer, but asked me to reheat the precooked whole turkey due to lack of oven space. The meal will be picked up from caterer the day before thanksgiving. Here are my options: Reheat in oven per caterer instructions Pellet...

Not sure if it was mentioned before… you need an IR Temp Gun to check stone temp I had an old one lying around but it didn’t go high enough for pizza temps - probably want at least 900f Ended up getting this one on sale https://www.thermoworks.com/ir-gun/

For reference - I got my torch for $13 last year, but similar configuration is no longer available

You definitely need the steel peel. This one peel can serve for launching, turning and removing. If you want to turn the pizza inside the oven, you can get a turning peel, but you can only use it if the pizza is smaller than the cavity of the oven. I believe the solo pi is a 12” oven so a...

I used the RFX in the short ribs that Kemper inspired me to try. I had a hard time getting the probes inserted beyond the insertion mark and still have the tip in the right position to read proper temp in the individual short ribs. In fact, the tips protruded out the far end of the meat...

So I noticed someone on FB Marketplace giving away a 2007 vintage Genesis grill when the lid hinges broke. Not interested in the grill itself but noticed the “forkula” stuffed in a box that had some Grillgrates. TLDR: I acquired for free a full set (5) of Grillgrates for a 2007 vintage Genesis...

Kemper Did you cut up the rack or were they already individually portioned from the butcher?

I used Montreal on a similar prime rib cook for Xmas several years ago… be very careful with the searing as the garlic will burn relatively quickly…

I’d be nervous having the area under the kettle completely enclosed - there have been a few times when my ash catcher released a little too easily due to operator error See this thread on the Weber Sequoia for ideas… but keep in mind it is “discontinued “ Thread 'Educate me on the Sequoia'...

This thread had a lot of info on these portable Weber griddles… Thread 'Size is not important........' https://tvwbb.com/threads/size-is-not-important.101408/ The only difference I can tell is that the new versions have the rust resistant “slate” griddle. I figured it is portable and I would...
