I would try some with the skin on and see if blanching is worth the trouble, any smoked almonds I have had were natural. Gerhard

I agree with you iced tea is definitely better south of the border, what is sold as ice tea here generally has a bigger relationship to KoolAid than tea. Our beer tends to make up for it though ;) Gerhard

I would vote for half rack each and if you have some teenage boys attending there won't be any left overs. I would also cut them into two rib portions so that the less hungry don't take more than they want to eat. Gerhard

We went last year and had a great time, just doesn't work out for us this year. Gerhard

@HogHeaven I don't think anybody meant you any disrespect but remember many roads lead to Rome. Gerhard

One thing we like to make is bruschetta, I just bake the first pizza dough blank and cut it into two bite size pieces then top those with your favourite bruschetta recipe. We put the bruschetta mixture in a bowl with a couple of spoons and people c…

I only monitor low and slow cooks and always route wires over the plate setter legs, use to foil but haven't lately. I have seen videos were the used the probe to monitor hot direct cooks which doesn't make sense to since those types of cooks have …

If you are having trouble with the crust burning I would leave the sugar out of any recipe, most likely grocery store dough contains sugar. When you are making a dough that is going to be used within a few hours of making it sugar is necessary to f…

My sister outside Gravenhurst was thinking about an egg but was worried about bears, any experience with that? We were up there when the bears took a neighbors shed apart to get at the garbage so I can imagine the egg would be no prob for a bear. …

It's above freezing at least 50% of the time, toughen up and quit complaining ;) Gerhard

I did ribs for my first cook and I thought I made fairly decent ribs before but these were amazing from what I was told. Gerhard

I find that I don't have temperature creep, what I do is stabilize the temperature without the platesetter. Then when I am happy that I have a clean fire that is holding my target temperature I add the smoking wood, the platesetter and the grill. …

A few carcinogen never hurt anyone, did they? Seriously he did not say he cooked anything , just that he was maintaining a temperature. Gerhard

Wow, now go out and celebrate already. Gerhard

I guess I have shown this video few times but here is my on baking pizza on the egg.

We use the stuff CostCo sells, one box lasts us for 2 or 3 years. Gerhard

Are sure you bought parchment paper? Waxed paper looks similar but doesn't work the same, one of our neighbours used waxed paper in the oven and the paper caught fire and the food won't release from it. If if the stone is hot enough to cause a bur…

Ehh you talking to me, about 1/2 hour drive north of London Ontario near Lake Huron. Gerhard @Canman1976 Cherie and I vacationed in Newfoundland last summer one of the best holidays ever. Travelled by motorcycle Gross Morne, Northern Peninsula and …

I like it straight up as well, I like the fact that it is not as sweet as most BBQ sauces and doesn't burn so you sauce chicken legs a little earlier. Gerhard

My egg sits outside rain or shine and I can't say that I have ever experienced your problem. Gerhard

I always foil the ribs part way through the cook and that definitely helps them cook quicker. I am low slow guy so I do three hours on the grill, 1 hour in foil with a little added liquid and one more hour on the grill and usually sauce them for th…

I agree that it was an airflow problem and the dripping off the dome is a direct result from this. The dripping is condensation on the cooler dome dripping back and the only way to get past that is to get some real heat going. If you have enough g…

Glad everyone is o.k. and the damage was limited, always amazed how lucky one can get. Gerhard

We do bacon all the time on the egg, keeps from stinking up the house. Gerhard

Charlie tuna said: it is so good i think it would taste good without a topping on it!! >:D< I know what you mean, often we bake one blank and use it for the bread part of bruschetta and it is always a hit as an appetizer. Gerhard

That sucks, not a fun disease as it seems to affect all aspects of your life. Five years ago my wife was diagnosed as diabetic, her readings were borderline. She always skipped breakfast and occasionally did not eat lunch. I had been on her back …

I would think with a little use it would be seasoned just like cast iron, my dome vent doesn't rust. Gerhard fishlessman said: yep, but in the case of using it in an egg, the main thing ive seen posted is burning bottoms of pizza crust, th…
