Yes, Bob; I agree His posts here grabbed me years ago, although that was way before his blogging career started. He has a nice variety of cooking skills, warm folksy personality, and infuses his posts with family events and how to work in interesting dinners during a busy family schedule. And...

I'm sure you can get all the good advice you need here, but here is a fun website from a member (or ex-member?) that covers the rotisserie subject very nicely too---he has even published a book or two : Rotisserie Recipes on Dad Cooks Dinner

And I can recommend any of Lorna Sass's pressure-cooking books. Her last, "Pressure Perfect," is in my opinion her best. For many of her base recipes she adds several variations for different flavor profiles and/or different meats, and also ethnic variations. The front of the book has...

Tim, do keep us up to date on your digital pressure cooker adventure. Over the last 5 or 10 years, there have been a lot of new and creative technique innovations that do kick up the recipes a notch. One of the best, in my opinion, is: Perfect Crispy Pressure Cooker Chicken and Rice This is...

Thank you, Ethan. I plan on trying this ASAP. Rita

Tim, you might troll around on this site. She has a ton of information on the Instant Pot. Note that I think IP has several different models available. http://hippressurecooking.com/ Personally, I still prefer my stovetop pressure cookers (KuhnRikon) over my Cuisinart digital cooker...

Ethan, are you still here? As Tom asked, how do you serve it? Have you created any updated methods for the "Pork Burnt Ends" over the last 1 1/2 years? Have you abandoned it for another, possible better process? I came upon your post a bit late to the debate in Jan '16, but your method for...

So, Clint, it's been 9 months now. What's your verdict? I've used 2 cups soaked chips in a foil pouch on the flavorizer bars of my Genesis and get very little (almost no) smoke flavor on the food. Also, how hard is it to get the ashes out of the bag?

Well, the premise of the show is that the cook is explaining to Kimball about the recipe, so naturally he or she would be looking at him while doing the explanation. Rita

Crab legs on the grill are the ultimate in simplicity and deliciousness: One pound of crab legs per serving is usually sufficient, except when our daughter comes to dinner! She has loved these since she was 9 years old. Don't ignore the knuckle, the mass of cartilage joining the base of...

Brian, for second opinions, you might also try asking over at the FOODSAVER YAHOO GROUP Rita

That is surely an odd way to do business! But many times "last is best." It's been a while since we've been in HH. One day I hope we'll surprise you! Rita

Congratulations, Ray! We have friends who live there and your wife is right - it's a lovely place. Have fun hanging all those pictures and getting organized. :) Rita

Thank you Len and Clint. :) Rita

Thank you, Len. I did find some information HERE, which brings up the choice of Infrared and Occupancy Sensors: Passive Infrared, Ultrasonic and Dual-Technology. This might be more information for me to absorb at the moment, since I'm trying to handle health issues for a family member. I'd...

I hear you, Jim! Things don't always work the way we expect. So....if the lights stay on as long as there is someone in the room, what happens when they roll over to go to sleep? Do the lights stay on? Does one have to get up to manually turn them off if they are installed in a switch at the...

Yes, we mostly have the newer light bulbs. It would be nice to have the lights go out when a room isn't being used.

I've been thinking of installing "Occupancy motion detector lights" in several rooms in our house. I don't know what to expect from them or how they work. I really must get our power bill down. I'm assuming that they are installed into the wall switches that control the lights in the room...

Clint, your loaves are beautiful! I know they will taste as good as they look. Thanks for posting the pictures. Rita

artificiality - I like it! Very clever with the thermostat, Len. You're right; sourdough does like it a little cozier than dry yeast. That reminds me of the time I rigged up a styrofoam cooler with an extension cord that had a lightbulb socket on one end, fitted with, I think it was, a...
