Does anyone have an authentic borscht recipe? I would like to make some for my Ukrainian friend's birthday.

How much fish do I need? There will be two other meats and three side dishes. I have cooked fish before but never for this many people. What percent yield can I expect? I plan on grilling the fish and I figure on 4oz of cooked fish per person. I have read that I can expect somewhere from...

Thanks Kevin!

All I have to say is the search function rocks! I always find what I am looking thanks to the generosity of the members and their willingness to share techiques and recipes. Anyway I have some dried epazote that I would like to add. Should I add it to the recado or sprinkle it on top of the...

Thanks Kevin! I always try to do too much.

I am going give making homemade tortillas a shot. The basic recipe I have is adding water to masa harina. I starting thinking about how Cooks Illustrated added vodka to pie dough and was wondering how it would work if I did the same with the tortilla recipe, or even better tequila. Has anyone...

Yeah I never buy them less than 1" thick. I was cooking for party and came across a case of 1/2" thick chops at a good price so I thought I'd give it a shot. They went over well but to be honest, it was pretty much ham. They weren't dry at all. I brined them for 6 hours (I wanted to take...

Thanks for the help Paul. I was thinking I could go longer with the brine.

I have a whole mess of 1/2" thick pork chops that I am going to smoke up. I have never smoked anything this thin before. I was thinking of brining for an hour, dusting with some salt free rub, and smoking at 225-250 for an hour. I know these would be better suited for grilling but I want to...

I have made this a couple of times and loved it, so I was thinking on making it for Christmas. I go to get my ingredients only to find my butter pecan extract somehow made it inot a batch of cookies! I checked Watkins online and didn't see it listed anymore. Anyway, I know it will change the...

I have a small catering event coming up (50 people) and they have requested a red white and bleu slaw that had at a restaurant somewhere in upstate New York. From what they told me it was vinegar based with red and white cabbage and bleu cheese. I found a recipe via google and I wasn't...

Sorry about bumping an old post but do you remove the membrane when grilling your ribs? It doesn't look like you did much trimming at all and that is right up my alley. At least for weekday cooks anyway.

In the recipe are they saying to add the molasses, ketchup, cider vinegar, etc. to 3 cups of bottle sauce? I wasn't sure if they are trying to say use 3 cups of bottled sauce or make the sauce below it in the recipe.

I've got some bacon curing in the fridge now for smoking on Sunday. I would like to leave it in the cure until Sunday and dry it with a fan before smoking. I usually dry it in the fridge for a day before smoking but I have been pressed for time and only got it into the cure on Monday. I know...

I had left my smoker over a friends house. I was on my way over the his place and was running a little late. He volunteered to clean out the smoker for me so all I have to do is get it lit and throw on the meat. He watched me clean it on numerous occasions so I thought it was a great idea. I...

It is worse than just the bolts being rusted. Where the bolts are attached the the bowl is rusted out too. It looks like it would completely collapse if I any charcoal in it. I can completely see through it. If any thing I was thinking about drilling out the rusted parts and putting a large...
