Specifically looking for around what time to put my 6lb roast in the oven for serving at 630 (including rest time). I see different mins per lb based on methods of cooking but not for this reverse sear.method. I will be using thermometer but don't want it ready to serve at 5 when everything...

Reading this thread and the article about reverse sear - I'm going to try it, but how many mins per lb?? Can't seem to find that anywhere! Mine is boneless btw.

So I tried this recipe again - on Thanksgiving no less! I was actually ahead of the curve on preparing the other items for that meal and was left with some downtime, so figured why not. This time the changes were - - allowing the yeast liquid to sit for less time (mix was about half...

Wow just came back to check and realized you gave me a lot of great replies! I used "Allinsons active yeast" and king Arthur bread flour. (Here I have never seen different types of bread flour...) I use a kitchen aid pro series mixer with dough hook attachment. I didn't realize you could...

Thank you so much for the replies! Here's exactly what I did, to be more specific: 1. Create milk/butter/sugar mixture. Measured milk into bowl and microwaved until warm. Melted butter in a separate bowl, added to milk. Added sugar. Stirred until dissolved. Set aside. 2. Ran hot tap water...

Breads are my weak spot. I've never been truly good at baking anything with yeast! I've tried this recipe 4 times now. My rolls are coming out denser than I want them to. This is a copycat recipe for Golden Corrals dinner rolls. At the restaurant they are light as a feather with a slight crust...

Hi all - I thought I'd give an update! It was some tough competition for sure! A lot of my coworkers are from outside the U.S. (mostly Asian or Indian descent) so there were lots of international spins on classics. I also learned something...I had forgotten that an Americans palate is very...

Ok guys. My competition is tomorrow and I've made SO MANY things in the last couple of weeks. Here is what I ended up making as my final two choices to enter. I can only actually enter one for the competition and it's tough for me to decide. Help? I also need to name them both as part of the...

Oh man. You all are sending some great ideas! I just now made a lemon curd because the mention of lemon merengue made me crave lemon! Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk

Thank you for the quick reply! Yes - access to fridge at work. I have pretty much every baking tool there is and I am not opposed to getting more if needed. :) It's a small company so I'm expecting maybe 15 entries max. This is a yearly thing but I wasn't here last year so I don't know...

Hi All - This is my first post so I hope I'm putting it in the right place! I've always loved to cook and bake, and I've always gotten quite a few compliments everywhere I go. I've never participated in a contest before though! I have a new job and this company does a baking competition. My...
