    Rib help needed

    Got a small (2 1/4 lbs) rack of Coleman St. Louis pork ribs. I usually dry rub, smoke, then baste with BBQ sauce. Since I will be alone Friday hanging with the Corgis, I am looking for new flavor profile. BTW - want to cook hot and fast without brine. Any suggestions?

    Would you try this?

    I keep both ground chuck and ground pork butt on hand. For burgers, we have tried many different blends (brisket, sirloin, etc.) but we preferred 100% chuck. We do like a smash burger with 1 ground chuck patty and 1 ground pork butt patty or a burger of 2/3 chuck and 1/3 butt. Oh, and Chris, I...

    My restored 20 year old Dacor Gas Range

    I’ve owned 2 DACOR ranges. My first is at my daughters house and is closing in on 25 years old with ZERO issues. My current DACOR is 12 years old with no issues. Not sure of their quality since they were bought by Samsung which means I’ll not be getting a third one. I’m currently looking...

    Size of Lump Charcoal Pieces

    I usually break the big pieces with a hand axe. The small pieces I use when I want a short, really hot, fire for searing. I do dispose of the dust in the bottom of the bag.

    Seasoning Gone Wrong

    I have had sticky cast iron a couple of time and is usually caused by too much oil build up during the seasoning process. It can also come from one of three sources: Too much oil (most often the issue) too low of a seasoning temperature too short of a seasoning time I have had mixed results...

    Troubleshooting HM hardware/PCB network issue

    If it worked for 8 years then it may be a hardware problem especially if its seen a lot of vibration or temperature changes. I would recommend the following: 1 - Inspect the solder joints closely to see if any are cracked. Once the solder cracks, it will eventually become an open circuit. If...

    Bacon

    The sodium nitrite in the pink salt will set the color (pinkish) and help prevent bacterial growth but does not contribute to curing. BTW, a pink dye is added to let you know that is cure #1 and not just salt. Too much can be not such a good thing. I use it when the cured meat will be cooked only.

    Griddle Dilemma

    Yes it’s pretty easy to make heat zones. Just adjust the burners. When I make smash burgers for example I put one burner on high, opposite on low, then adjust the middle burner accordingly to get 2 zones. Have not yet tried three. Here is a a review by the flat top king.

    Griddle Dilemma

    I have the full size insert for my EX-335 and am super happy with it. When I got it, I had sold 2 WSMs and gave my performer to my daughter. That left me with the WSK and EX-335. After the downsizing, I didn’t want to Add anything new so I bought the griddle. It works wonderfully and I have the...

    COSTCO brisket gift

    My son brought me a COSTCO brisket as a gift. I broke it down as I want to use it for different recipes. Was 16 pounds at the start and over 11 pounds once trimmed. The piece on the left was cut in half and braised for last nights dinner. The other part was mixed with scraps for chili. The...

    Bacon

    I’ve tried both. With dry cure, I had to soak the meat to lower the salt level. i Also found that the salt was heavier toward the outside of the meat. Using the wet cure, I only rinse the outside well and dry it too. Never had any salt issues.

    Sous Vide + WSK

    The texture was perfect. Crazy tender. One thing I did do was to drain off the marinade before putting it into the water. I was worried about it over marinating. Kept bath time to 90 minutes.
