Lasagna... Egged

JB

Haven't made a lasagna in a while and have never done one on the Egg. But it was a beautiful Florida evening about 72* with a 10-15 mph breeze blowing through the palms. The wind chill factor must have been in the 70-71* range :P . Not sure I noticed any difference in flavor vs. cooking in the oven but it was a lot more fun cooking outside on the Egg, it's great either way. The noodles were a little longer than the pan and the tips of the third (top) layer got a bit crunchy, otherwise perfect. I don't use ricotta (wife hates it), I use whole milk mozz, sharp aged provolone and fontina. Leftovers tonite!

Ready for the Egg


On at 350* for about 30 mins. Bumped to about 380 for another 10.

That close up looks real taste. I need lasagna at least once a month.

My buddies wife wanted to do some on his small egg and she made 3 small pans and got real bummed when she realized they wouldn't fit...I took all 3 and her box of foil and headed out to get cookin. :P

JB,

Looks good. I made one last weekend but the pan was too big for the egg. Did you notice any smoke flavour? Have you ever tried drained cottage cheese in place of the riccotta?

I know that is probably a heat wave for you! :laugh: I did work outside all day today but sales were good

JB

Thanks Adam. That's a load of lasagna right there!

JB

Thanks Steve. My mom always used cottage cheese, I like it and ricotta. Wifey only likes "cheese that melts".

JB

Ouch! that's too cold Susan.

JB
