Cast iron pan

 

Yeah the secret was apparently turning up the heat and less time. They’re done in under a minute now

 

only way to go...! you gotta be making a bunch though... takes so damn long to get those things ready to roll.

 

Nah. I get the premade uncooked ones. Longest part is heating up the pan

 

yeah you have to sit and watch and make sure you turn them at the right time... you do carne asada?

 

Yeah we make quesadillas by the dozens every month because its one of the few things our toddler will eat right now lol. I've gotten pretty good at it

If the skillet gets too hot though and you go to cook another, it will make it way too burnt on the outside before the cheese even melts. Gotta be the right temp, I usually cover them too to help it cook more throughout and not just the side thats on the pan

 

I haven’t but I should.

 

Yeah quesadillas take less heat for sure. So good tho

 

skirt steak, salt pepper rub and like 1/2 a lime per strip..charcoal best but grill works..dice up the meat good....

for chile verde take 4-5 tomatillos, 1/2 spanish onion, 1 jalopeno.. blacken on grill and blend up with some fresh garlic...

serve with diced onion/cilantro and the chile verde on top.. Tijuana style. corn tortilla

 

I just finished season 3 of Narcos: Mexico...'Tijuana style' has a different meaning for me

 

Ima about to air fry a ribeye I think

 

I lived in san ysidro for a little over a year... i could walk to TJ from my apartment.... spend 3 nights a week there (with friends that grew up with the cartel kids). did some of the craziest shit there...

 

I know it works and all, but when someone says I'm going to "air fry" something, esp a steak...it just sounds so unappealing

I still want to get one just to see what all the fuss is about

 

I liked what it did to the last steak I cooked in it, weird crunchy crust that was good.

I haven’t quite decided what to do with it yet.

but end of semester dinner so fawk it

 

A ribeye should be dipped in melted salted butter and cooked on a charcoal grill... lol 1 1/2" thick is money!

 

It’s winter

not about to grill

and The only grill I have is a foreman

 

oh man... that brings a tear to my eye... lol

 

Pretty sure, like 95% sure, that those are all the same. My FJ tcase in the 4runner has the 3. One for 2wd or maybe it's 4LO?, one for 4wd and one for neutral in the trans. I think the main difference in them is going to be the plug end. Otherwise, it's just a 2 wire ball detent switch.

 

That's not a grill, it's a glorified panini maker

 

I haven’t used it in awhile
