    Countertop Microwave

    We had a similar model a few years ago when we went through an attempted downsize into a rental home. I really liked it and loved that I could make quick toasted bread for my sandwiches and the kids could use the air fryer function (which is really just a small convection oven) to make frozen...

    Under cabinet shelf microwave. Your thoughts.

    Our new home already had the over the range microwave with outside vented hood (thankfully). When we redo our kitchen down the road, my wife will want the microwave in the pantry and not even in the kitchen taking up space in the cabinets or on the counter. The more I think about it, that's...

    Instant Pot, What a Machine

    We have the big one and use it pretty exclusively for rice, pinto beans, and occasionally for chicken noodle and tortilla soup. I love it. We have the big one and use it pretty exclusively for rice, pinto beans, and occasionally for chicken noodle and tortilla soup. I love it. But, this is...

    Couple of FB Marketplace grabs

    So, I was looking for a stand for my Char Q and found this. Then I also found this listing. I very rarely find Char Qs listed and with both of these being about 10 minutes apart I went yesterday and picked up both. The Char Q has some chipping on the lid so it might become a project...

    Steak Night and a new technique....

    Yeah, so a second grate seems to be what I need. I have a Jumbo Joe so that grate should work. I feel like I need to probably get an official one from either Weber or someone that makes them.

    Steak Night and a new technique....

    So, the only issue I've had with my Summit Kamado is steak night. I have to do a 45 minute cook to bake the potatoes and then sear up the steaks. Problem has been that I prefer to have the coals in the lower position to start them with the gas starter and to bake the potatoes. But, I want the...

    Combo cook with the turkey?

    My green bean casserole will also go in the smoker next to the turkey breasts and the glazing ham. And, in my green bean casserole recipe I use both cream of mushroom AND golden mushroom soup with some sour cream to do a little stroganoff inspired version. Just a tip for anyone looking for an...

    Outdoor cooking tables, bbq prep area.

    Yeah, it's not for everyone. We love the heat and humidity. And, the big secret is this time of year it's perfect weather. Low 80s/high 70's all day, and 60s/70s at night. The cage doubles as a screened in patio and helps keep the pool clean. They are so prevalent down here that you have to...

    Outdoor cooking tables, bbq prep area.

    So, we have had a crazy time with inspections and whatnot. During the normal purchase process we had a day full of inspections that was 6 and a half hours and $1500 worth of inspections. We had the full house inspection, the Florida 4 point, roof wind mitigation, septic system, pool, well and...

    Outdoor cooking tables, bbq prep area.

    Yeah, at first I was rushing to come up with a quick fix covered patio setup but the more I thought about it, I came to this conclusion as you did. Let it simmer and see how it goes. Being a lifelong Okie I tend to judge all my grilling experiences based on the weather and situations there...

    Outdoor cooking tables, bbq prep area.

    My how life twists and turns..... lol Since this post a lot has happened. First thing that happened is my wife got a remote position so we no longer HAD to live in SE Georgia. We had literally just finished the design process and were only waiting for the permit drawings to be completed and...

    Kitchen knife replacement thoughts

    I will never buy a full block set again. I would rather spend the same money on a couple of great knives that I actually use. Best knife I've ever used is one we just got fairly recently. https://www.zwilling.com/us/miyabi-artisan-8-inch-chefs-knife-34073-203/34073-203-0.html Also got this...

    I can also attest that the small trivet fits pretty perfectly on a normal quarter sheet pan.

    Smashburger Size?

    2 to 2.5 ounce patties for us. Wife likes thin patties. Need them thin for the crispy, lacy edges.

    Concerned my Weber Crafted Griddle is not seasoning correctly

    Concerned my Weber Crafted Griddle is not seasoning correctly

    Yep, don't waste anymore time with seasoning. Just start cooking on it and keeping it oiled in between. Use enough oil for your cooks and don't expect it to be like a non-stick pan until it is.
