    @Canugghead That’s a good looking chicken.

    @SciAggie Thanks, don't use the Romertopf enough, it's foolproof for chicken. Can't use in egg though since it has to start in cold oven to avoid thermal shock.

    @Bucky925- the only figure I have read about that complains about too much garlic is Dracula.  Great cooks and the ribs, wings and shrimp look incredible.  
    You down-play 'em.  
    Glad you were able to roll -in last night.

    @Mattman3969 - rolling in hot right there.  Great finish-but your plating angle seems amiss to me  B)

    @Canugghead - as above, that is a sweet cook.  Way to bring it home.  I am quite sure it tasted even better than it looked.  
    BTW- Friday night Zoom's are still on.  You need to give us another GWN fix!

    Simple snack, no photo, but a keeper.  
    I lined the solid broil pan in my Breville with aluminum foil, and spread out a dozen "Scoop" Tostitos.  Added a pinch of pre-shredded mexican cheese to each, set Mr. Breville to "Broil" for 90 seconds.  
    Meanwhile, laid 6 pickled jalapenos on my cutting board, and sliced them in half.  When the Breville Beeped, dozen scoops with darkened edges and a pool of melted cheese in each; set the Breville pan into the vented Breville pan (cool), dropped a half-jalapeno in each and I now have a new favorite night snack.  
    Prep time: 15 seconds
    Cooking time: 90 seconds

    As we discussed last night on zoom , there is a huge difference between store bought and homegrown garlic and I put WAY too much in the wing sauce .

    @lousubcap chicken was moist even with thigh hitting 185, the lemon garlic herb and wine flavour came through nicely. Bummer...noticed a short hairline crack on the lid edge, disappointing because I always persoak and start in cold oven. 

    I thought @GrateEggspectations and @paqman have been representing GWN at zoom since I retired  =)

    @Canugghead - @GrateEggspectations runs submerged and undetected when it comes to the Friday Zoom's.  Door's always open.

    There's no such thing as way too much garlic...

    Steaks last night. IT never read over 135 but they were grey all the way through like I took them to 160. Fark.

    homemade Caesar dressing though was awesome.

    caliprince got a bee in his bonnet that he wanted to cook dinner last night. Friends gave him this book for his birthday, and he's been having a blast.

     Says right on the cover that it’s for chefs, so I figured posting here would be appropriate. 

    So he made broccoli cheddar soup. Garnished with homemade bacon, of unknown vintage. He did everything, except for the step that called for blitzing the hot stuff in the vitamix, and chopping up the bacon. It was delicious! 



    @caliking - my apologies, I don’t remember how old caliprince is, but we got our daughter this opinel set when she was around 4.  Highly recommended.

    @Acn - He just turned 7. Thanks for the suggestion and link. He has a set of plastic chef knives, but it may be time to move up.

    We had a grand time. Put on some tunes, Crystal Light (“pink drink”) for him, and “Papa juice” (wine) for me. The highlight of the last week we've had.

    Cool, my wife corrected me, we didn’t start our daughter that young, she was probably 6.5-7 when we got that.  Time has no meaning anymore.
