Foodies BS Thread.

Can you really get it hot all the way through in an hour? I also do the refrigerator thing and reheat later in the week, but a hunk of meat like that takes a long time to heat all the way through. I usually cut it up in a few smaller pieces, but then it tends to dry out easier. Just curious....

 

just mix it up and put it in the fridge...and if you arent ready to make a pizza you can freeze it for a month or so, you just have to let the dough thaw thoroughly before you can work it.

 

No, not in an hour. Just typing fast and missed it. Since it's already cooked you don't need to hit 160f. I go with the oven at 350, wrap the ham in foil or put in a roasting pan and cover with foil, add a little juice (pineapple mixed w/apple) and heat until internal temp gets to 140f then pull it to rest for 20-30 min. Baste with juices a few times along the way. I did this at Christmas and a few other times and it was not dry.

 

My two cents... yes, par cook the bacon for a few minutes on stovetop until the fat begins to turn opaque, then wrap.

 

when i worked in the restaurant and we cooked bacon in the oven with just a flat sheet and foil.

the way you had done it, i would have turned on the broiler for a few mins

 

could just use a torch

 

That is an exciting idea!

 

you dont leave it on long enough to catch everything on fire...if thats the case creme brulee's wouldnt exist....

 

No matter how you do it, just get it a third cooked before wrapping.

 

Screw you, Mickey D's, I make 'em better.

 

Even better when you grill your muffin or bagel too!

Y'all doing the Valentine's Day dinner thing?? We avoid the restaurant markups and enjoy ourselves at home. Grilling some prime ribeyes and maybe some roasted taters and veggies. Any other suggestions??

I know many people hate the Hallmark holiday but if my wife is about it, roll with it. Happy wife, happy life!

 

Lucky!


Well what the heck would you enjoy with your damn steak!? Haha

 

A gorgonzola sauce to dip the steak in would be rich but worth a few extra points...
