Pork loin with 40 cloves of garlic. Hoppin' John, Rice pilaf, Collard greens with bacon and red onions, Corn Bread.

Hoppin' John. The recipe we have been cooking year after year comes from the "Glory of Southern Cooking" by James Villas. Just google it and follow the Epicurious link. Family and friends love it so much I cook it multiple times a year usually as a side to roast pork. Rice and collard greens...

BTB all varieties but especially the beef base. Knorr Selects powder. Goya and Iberia packets when I cook Puerto Rican food. I also make homemade chicken broth. Having experimented with quite a few recipes and methods I settled on ATK's pressure cooker recipe with small modifications. IMHO...

May I suggest a YOUTUBE channel - Uncle Scott's Kitchen. He has quite a few videos dealing with carbon steel pans and imho his recommendations are spot on.

BBQ. Brisket, Pulled Pork, Chicken, coleslaw, potato salad.... Dressed up or down. Good luck!

Thank you Andy! I decided to use it. Brought it to a boiling point and let simmer for 3 minutes. I did not detect any off flavours. It was actually rather good.

Hi. I have another chicken broth situation... Broth was made in a pressure cooker. Put away in the freezer. No date on containers... I think it may be 6 months old, mayvbe older. Is it safe to cook with? I understand flavor maybe be dulled and I am ok with it but unsafe? Please advise. Thank you.

+1. Mashed potatoes are one of the first dishes i prepare on Thanksgiving day. I keep it in a small crock-pot on the warm setting. Tool of choice is a potato ricer. Only on holidays. For everyday cooking I just use the potato masher for ease of clean up.

RIP Chief. Condolences to family and friends.

I use a similar method I learned from Cooks Illustrated and James Peterson's "Kitchen Simple". I use only about two fingerwoths of water. The idea being to recover boiling temp as soon as you put the eggs in. The eggs do not need to be fully submerged in water. Also you never take the eggs...

Double smashed cheese burgers on the "fake" Blackstone, salt roasted yukon steak fries. Tomato, sliced red onion, butter pickels, mayo, toasted brioche buns. Table red wine from Aldi, some of ours call plonk. Phill Harper Jazz trumpet playlist. Everybody was happy. Have a great night everyone!
