    Rye bread but

    baked in a pullman loaf pan. I do Lahey-type no knead breads exclusively but also vary the ingredients. I'll do two all white bread on occasion but will frequently change it up. As I grind my own flour, I have 1)wheat grain 2)rye grain 3)spelt grain grains that I will blend with unbleached...

    Thermometer Problems

    Yup. When you know the discrepancy against a known value (ie boiling water), then just add/subtract the difference and then you know. Most thermometers that we can buy as consumers are frequently wrong. I bought a combined thermo/hygrometer. It always reads 1o F higher than room temp. I...

    Baby Back Ribs

    FIrst in your post are prob loin backs and the 2nd were borderline baby/loin. It's really the size that determines the "name". Not a big deal, just something to be aware of.

    Baby Back Ribs

    Boiling water test--remove thermo from lid, get some water boiling and insert probe (NOT the whole thermo) and check the temp. IF 212, good to go. If say 222, then you know thermo runs hot. SO if you want 235, your thermo has to read 245. ETC.

    Baby Back Ribs

    AND one more thing: baby backs vs loin backs. Babies are <2lb each and will get done somewhat sooner. Loin backs are big fellas and can run 2.5, 3 or 4 lb per rack and will take a bit (but not much) longer.

    Baby Back Ribs

    IT DEPENDS. lol. On your temps. Keep a log every half hour OR SO noting time and temps. If you're consistently at 275, check at 3 hr. If closer to 225o, peek at 4 hr. No need to stick a probe in ribs (in butt, yes but don't bother with ribs). Are the ends exposed (ie meat is pulled back...

    Baby Back Ribs

    As a critique, as you are using the lid thermo, have u used the boiling water test to determine how accurate it is? A lot (most?) of us use a remote thermo (like one from https://www.maverickthermometers.com/ ) to test grate temps as the lid thermo is wrong a lot of the time. Also, do NOT keep...

    Hot & Fast Smoke Day Chicken

    Read on a fireplace site: The sound of firewood popping and crackling are the noises made by gases escaping quickly when the firewood is being burnt. The amount of pops and crackles produced by a fire can depend on the type of wood, the moisture content of the wood and the efficiency of the...

    Brisket Flat

    MMM MMM 😁 . For your broc/gratin, consider adding chunked up onions to the broccoli when cooking prior to the baking part. Takes it to a new level (y)

    Spices and rubs

    Found this copykat for the Hot Chicken Rub--1/2C of cayenne is primary and salt figures prominently as well https://montanahappy.com/nashville-hot-chicken-seasoning-mix/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=nashville-hot-chicken-seasoning-mix

    Spice heads unite!

    The way to know when to water is to watch when the leaves start to wilt. Then give them half the amount of water you usually would. Repeat at the next "wilt".

    Spice heads unite!

    Kinda look like these Anji Peppers (at 30,000, not all that hot). BUT considering how many varieties that look alike, who knows 😉

    Spice heads unite!

    These p-nuts are addictive (but you must get raw-I use red skin) p-nuts, not ones that are "ready to eat" as the cooking is part of the process https://panlasangpinoy.com/adobong-mani-fried-peanuts-recipe/

    First brisket of the season

    I've tried several times. Just won't process/100%, pic is "black" (I can see the "delete" button but the box is just gray) but nothing. A refresh just eliminates all that was loaded and/or typed. All the pics are under 4mb so should not be an issue. But there is...
