Man, Finally got the oil to fully soak in! I tried it last night, it is wonderful. Very different feel than a $5 hardwood wal-mart board! I didnt even see knife marks after I was done. Thanx for everones help!

I've used bar keepers friend and it works great, so I strongly recommend it. Really cheap too!

Quick question, after fully oiled for a few days, and used, it is regularly washed with soap and water right? Sounds dumb, but I just wanna double check before I ruin anything. Thanx!:chef:

I just oiled it! Can't wait so everything can be absored and I can start chopping away!

I know now exactly what you mean! Great anaolgy! Unfortunately, I got the last one. Im anxious to try it out. All my experiences have been with "wal-mart" laminated wood boards. I notice that these give off powdered wood when you are chopping/slicing/dicing with a really sharp knife! I'm...

GB, I got it for $6!!!! at Ross. I could swear that the price was changed, or there was a mistake, because a small plastic board was more expensive! I'll take a pic with the price tag in a bit so I can post it. What is the difference between the grains, and why if I may ask? I would like to be...

Hello everyone! I just wanted to thank everyone for all their input on the difference of cutting boards on another thread I had posted. Well, I was at Ross today, and I stumbled on a nice butcher block! I thought it was going to be pricey, but I got it for $5.99!!! It is this one...

Thanx GB, I think I will definitely give that one a shot, especially because I am new to this! Thanx again

What would you all recommend for a sharpening stone?

Thanx Michael. Yeah, I'll will be keeping up the blade with a sharpening steel. My parents had some really old sharpening steels there that were given to them by my cousing that used to work at a butcher shop. Luckily they are some F. Dick steel sharpeners. I did some research on them, and they...

Well, after doing some research, and going into my local restaurant supply store, I decided to go for a Dexter Russell 8in Chef knife. I tried it out, and I love it. I just have to be careful because it is pretty sharp! Like I had mentioned before, I'm a dietetics student, so I could not afford...

I'm really tempted on buying a 7'' Sontaku by kitchen aid from target. I'm a starter, and I will be taking some food handling courses for my dietetics program. Since I am a full time student I cannot afford a really good blade. I like the feel on my hand, not extremely light, but not heavy as...

DailyRecipes, did you mean Rio Grande as in Rio Grande Valley? Just wondering, cuz I'm from there, and Cat fish is also the choice of fish.

Hope you all like my recipe, thought I'd share. It's simple and healthy! 4 large tomatoes, cut in half 2 TB olive oil 4 6 oz. Salmon fillets ½ lb. Sliced mushrooms 1 lb green beans trimmed ¼ cup grated parmesan cheese 1 lemon sliced In large roasting pan drizzle tomatoes with olive...

Thank you so much. I will have to explain that to my finacee, cuz she bought me this really nice tempered glass one. It has a chef w/wine bottles! HA! Thanx again!

Besides material, are there any other differences? I mean, does a maple cutting board make the knife slide smoother vs a tempered glass cutting board? Are tempered glass cutting boards any good? Will they dull the knifes? Sorry for so many questions. I'm about to get married, and am buying my...

Where would I be able to find a blank cookbook. Something that I can actually do my own righting on. I was thinking of buying just a blank journal book, but maybe there is something nicer out there. Thanx!

Welcome aboard! I'm too am new here. By the way, what brand was the knife, how big? I've been looking into buying one as well. Thanx!

Congrats on your ss! I to am new to SS. I have a 7-ply 10 piece set. Pricey, but well worth it. Most of my cooking had been on cheapy $10 pans. Man what a difference! Only thing is, of course normal staining, which will easily be taken care of by using Barkeepers Friend SS cleaner.

This is the way I make mine: Sirloin Ground Beef Finely Chopped Onion Bacon Shredded Motzerella Cheese Worcestershire Sauce First partially cook bacon on seperate pan. Add bacon, chopped onions, shredded motzerella cheese, and some worcestershire sauce to ground beef. Form patties into...

Thanx again! Now I can rest my mind! This is what happens when you are new to things! Just wanted to clear it up. Just asking a lot of questions since these things cost me quite a bit of money that I will be paying for the next 2yrs! :rofl:

Guys, still kinda curious on the whole stain thing. I took some pictures so you all pros can give me some feedback. Is this normal after every cooking session? I mean, the pan is clean, it's just the stains. On here I cooked some ground turkey burgers. Look for yourself and give me some...

Great Info Guys! Thanx a bunch for helping a newbie! I love my pans, I just wanted to get the proper care for them. Thank you:rofl:

Sorry for the stupid questions guys, but I believe this is the best way to learn without ruining my pans. My stainless steel pans came with some stainless steel accesories, like a spatula, spoon, etc.... Can I use these on the pans, or will they scratch the inner part of the pan? Thanx again!

Thank you for your replies. I didn't know that SS pans would be this much work! Again, thanx!
