  • Griffin,

    You are one of my favorite posters on here.  I wish I was 1/2 the cook you are.

    The Salisbury steak and burgandy mushrooms are from this site:

    http://thepioneerwoman.com/cooking/2012/03/salisbury-steak-mashed-potatoes-and-peas/

    The mashed potato recipe is Martha Stewart's.

    The corn casserole is Paula Dean's.

    Mac n cheese recipe was an old one I use, but I'm changing the type of cheese this time to add Gyurere.

    I like to use recipes 100% like it call for the first time and then modify them to my liking.

    Thanks. I just like to eat and try new things. Always looking for inspiration.  My wife actually printed out that salisbury steak recipe this week as well, so I guess we'll be trying it soon, too, unless you say its no good. I printed out the corn casserole today. Let us know how it goes.

    I try and keep recipes 100% true the first time as well, sometimes they get altered...I just can't help myself.

    At least 1 thing that should be interesting. Found a place that had some beef cheeks. They're defrosting now. Not quite sure how to do them. Am leaning towards an 8 hour marinade, then low temp indirect till 165. Foil. Unfoil and crisp.

    May do 1 a day at 135 sous vide, then sear.

    @gdenby - Here's something that Smokin' Gal did awhile back. She doesn't post on egg forums as far as I know, but she posts on the Smoke Ring. She has done some incredible cooks, she takes it to the next level....really. You should check her out. Oh...and it was done on her egg.

    Thanks for the link. The package has 3, so I am going to try several methods. Most of the recipes I am finding, like the one above, use braising at some point. I'm going to sacrifice 1 to a straight lo-n-slo. I'll post in a day or two.
  • Steak Tips turned out perfect tonight. I seared them 2 minutes each side at 650 then closed the vents and left mine 3 minutes. Left the wife's a couple more minutes because she likes hers just ever so slightly pink in the middle. She said mine looked raw and gross but oh they tasted so good.
    On to my 1st egg try on ribs tomorrow and pizza on Sunday.
    What Dizzy rub goes best on the ribs? Just got the sampler pack and trying to figure out what to try 1st.

    If you have the regular Dizzy Dust I would try that.  I have used that on ribs as well as using their Red Eye on ribs as well.
