    Granny fork???

    I will have to agree. I've even come across some sales listings that are allegedly for some civil war utensils that appear to be the same vintage. I guess my question was: Why is there no manuf. for 4 tines now? As Schazz points out, there are plenty of places for 3 tines, but 4 seems to...

    Granny fork???

    A little update I've been busy hitting a few flea markets and yard sales, but my best luck was on Ebay. These are not exactly what I was looking for. In fact, they are considerably older than the vintage I first posted. Also, they are old, pure steel, so if you have the bad habit that I do...

    Granny fork???

    I have two of these treasures, and I have not been able to find more of them anywhere. From the pics that I have been able to find on the Net, it appears to be a type of Granny Fork, but finding one with 4 tines has been quite a challenge. These were my mother's, and since I'm 63, you get a...

    Cooking time for 2 prime ribs

    Interesting. At least you're willing to commit to an extra amount of time and quantify it. I certainly agree with your initial load approach. Then if we have a recipe that calls for 500F for one hour, then turn oven off and sit for two hours, would you surmise that it would be reasonable to...

    Cooking time for 2 prime ribs

    A great big thanks to all for your input. It appears the common denominator in all responses is the need for a remote ther. and staring at my three conventional ones on the weekend before Christmas with five hours to go before serving time, is not going to earn me very many points for planning...

    Cooking time for 2 prime ribs

    Thanks for the comments. Andy, my first thought is, in fact, to treat it as one 20 lb. roast, but then I'm not sure the cross section area would be the same. Certainly Auntdot's analysis has merit when you talk about increasing the surface area exposed to the heat. Then again, maybe we're...

    Cooking time for 2 prime ribs

    I sincerely try to diligently search before asking the stupid question, but I have not been able to find any posts that directly answer my question, although several have mentioned it. I have been commissioned to do the honors to 2 10lb prime ribs and use a recipe that calls for approx. 5...
