Sorry guys, I use Kroger diet tonic and just about any gin ( usually Costco brand-Kirkland) and they are just fine for my taste. Problem is I like ‘em too much…
I use an older sandwich style GF grill for making bacon. I replaced the grease tray with a larger size tray and make two pounds of bacon at a time. Clean-up has always been the down fall, but less grease splatter so I felt I was ahead of the game. Never liked the idea of using the main oven to...
I am replying to my own thread because I’m dismayed at the lack ( 0 ) of comments on this topic. Even though it has been read 97 times, no one has made any comments good or bad. My thoughts were that this community leaned towards cooking and anything related that would inform and encourage the...
Our refrigeration on the boat died, so we thought we could get by with just an ice maker. We bought one that claimed 26 # in 24 hrs ( Zlinke brand) and found it worked as advertised but found the cubes to be very small and melted quickly. They must be stored in a freezer or well insulated...
U-Tube cooking site:
This may not conform with most of the threads on this “ food “ topic, but I feel compelled to pass on what I found to be the best cooking channel on U-Tube. “ Chef Jean Pierre” has taught me more about cooking than all the others combined. He is funny, informative and has...

I have the Kenwood 700T tuner as well, and like the stacked ‘rack’ look. Also the Sansui has a ‘plastic’ appearance, where the Kenwood is ‘industrial, professional grade’ looking, which I prefer. As far as sound comparison I have not heard the Sansui, so no opinion. The Kenny tuner brings it all...
Notice: The Food Network (Alton Brown “Good Eats” show) features submerge/circulation cooking. Sous Vide. He covers this method of cooking very well in my opinion. Will repeat showing again on Sept. 2 at 1:30 AM. I do not know the program series number. Sorry.
Up date: utilized the ice bath for some very thick pork chops tonight. Not really a good example with pork, but it did allow me much more sear time than I would normally take without affecting internal temp. Will try a few steaks next time.
One late comment: rumor has it, a three minute ice bath, while still in the bag, just before searing will cool surface temp of steak for a longer, deeper char sear without affecting internal temp of steak. Might be worth a try...
