    don't pre salt for long sous vides, thought that was known, my b

    if you're doing a steak for an hour whatever, supposedly reacts strangely with the meat over long periods making the texture off

    I don't season period during the sous vide, if I want to impart extra flavor I season after taking out for searing or baste in pan with whatever herbs

    That's where I messed up. I salted and peppered before I bagged it. The texture was weird. Thanks.

    48 hours later. Turned out great. Super juicy and fell right off the bone. We were kind of weirded out by the fact that we were eating lamb considering it is something we have never had...but it was something fun to try.

    hash has long been my #1 breakfast item

    chilaquiles is encroaching due to a local place that makes it

    but a good homemade hash still holds the crown

    I used to not be a huge fan because I don't prefer corned beef but then I had it with short ribs, then with duck confit, and finally with pastrami and I appreciate it so much now.

    chilaquiles are boss.

    also, I know people make it differently but I am a fan of par-boiling russet potatoes then giving them a hard fry with the rest of the ingredients in a saute pan.

    corned beef is just the O.G., basically every variation I've had is good

    think the duck confit one I've had was the best, actually the more I think the sweet potato one with braised pork belly I had in Austin might have taken it
    I do it two ways, usually pending leftovers from whatever meal predated the hash. Boiling for some, but the best way imo is bake russets the day before, refrigerate, then use.

    gets them nice and dry, crisp much easier and harder without falling apart like the boiled can if they get waterlogged

    baked fall apart easier in my experience. a correct par boil should hold up much better imo (don't let them water log obs). yeah duck confit is legit, but my favorite is a pastrami hash from BLK SHP in Jacksonville.

    unless you aren't baking yours as far as I bake mine for dinner, which is possible. I cook mine basically until I can make mashed potatoes in a shell with butter and sour cream.

    par boil still allows most control over the consistency though.

    I bake until the center is just tender to a fork

    I like to put olive oil and salt on the outside so the skin crisps and then cook until it is falling apart on the inside.

    shit's dope.

    I know tandin believes the microwave is the devil, but i'll dice a russet, nuke it, then hard fry it for a quicker version of breakfast potatoes when pressed for time.

    probably not awful use of the microwave. meat should never enter it, even for reheat.

    My oven was broken for a bit a few weeks ago, so I threw some potatoes on the smoker with EVOO and salt. Turned out real nice

    If I'm making hash, 90% of the time it's with sweet potatoes.

    cooking sunday dinner for a big group tonight for GoT/Silicon.

    Thinking Pork Tenderloins rolled with feta, sun dried tomatoes and bacon (how does this affect baking time? First time stuffing one)
    and then gonna attempt some loaded hasselback potatoes

    Corky Bucek what was the time/temp on the potatoes? I plan on stopping it at some point and putting slices of cheddar in each slit (once they open up from baking) and then putting them back in to get a good melt.

    Due to the potato discussion on the page I'll probably rub EVOO and salt on the outside before slicing them

    425. Cut the potatoes first and then brush on your butter and/or oil and then salt and pepper them.

    cheese doesn't take long to melt at 425* so maybe last 3-5 minutes

    My wife makes one of my favorite sides when I grill steaks, basically a poor mans French onion soup. I bring the egg up to 300 or so and she takes an onion, cuts the top off and a little bit of the core out to make it like a bowl. Then wraps that in tin foil. In the onion she puts chicken broth, Worcestershire, little bit of sherry or red wine, and then garlic powder/s/p and tops with Gruyere. It gets grilled/smoked for about an hour. Does really matter how long I've found. It's good as hell.
