What did everyone cook today?

Chef Just FYI, here’s my farinata pan. It doesn’t show very well in the photo, but it actually has little, shallow dimples hammered into the surface. That’s probably the most significant difference between it and a paella pan.
It’s rather hefty for it’s size, actually, at a little more than 2 1/2 pounds.
TexLaw I got my two paella pans from Spain, both have dimples in the bottom, but made from rolled steel, like a crepe pan. I’m going to use the smaller of the two. The large one is 4 foot in diameter and feed about 150 to 175 people with paella.

TexLaw Okay, I’m a fan. The Farinata came out great and no sticking. I did cook it in my Primo. Temperature was about 560 to 570 F. I did use Phase for this first trial and had no sticking. Will be making this often. Thank you for sharing this.

drbrown35801 Can’t tell you how many times I have started a project in a negative mood and right around the grinding I start feeling better and it just improves from there. It is sort of like a meditation!
Jonathon Even using the knife that happens. You would think that would be the most dangerous thing ever, but instead, working the knife causes a calming & relaxing affect.

calldoctoday I was describing this to my wife and she said “oh, that’s meditation, you’re meditating” and I scoffed, but upon further review, I think she is right. Keeping my hands busy with a task they have done so many times that I hardly need to think about it and my mind is free to wander, not worry just wander!

Chef I’m glad it came out well! That is one heck of a pan you have there!

Cleaning out the freezer the other day I found a glorious 2 lb., heavily marbled rib steak. I reversed seated at 225 in the oven for about 45 minutes then seared it on the grill.
Joe Hell Now that is a real steak, well short of a good Porterhouse! But heck, I probably had too many Porterhouses over the years, look at me now.

My favorite steak, just ahead of a rib eye

calldoctoday We’ve been cutting some glorious porterhouse steaks this week!
Joe Hell I’ll take a porterhouse steak any day of the week. My #1 cut for steak.

First time in a long time I cooked up just one St. Louis rack of ribs. Normally cooking 3-4 racks at a time, no company for a week. Even grilled up some corn.
I think I am going to talk with my butcher about getting some beef ribs, it’s been awhile since I had some of those.

I am doing bacon today, but I need some one to tell me how to post a picture.
drbrown35801 You have to go down and click on “reply,” rather than use the “quick reply.” You also have to make sure that the pic is under a certain size (I don’t remember what that is). If it’s too large, just use a photo editor to resize.
