Buy a new lodge pan for $20. It is a perfect excuse to get another one!

would a good soapy scrub on one of the pans and a re-seasoning make it better for dishes that required a less slick surface? not sure if you would want to do that, and I have never had to scrub and start over with my cast iron, but it seems that might be a good option. One well seasoned "non-stick" pan and one with more stick to it.

I tried pork tenderloin in the sous vide for the first time last night. I poked holes and stuffed garlic into one of the loins and just salted and peppered it. the other loin was rubbed with dinosaur bbq Cajun foreplay. Both came out perfectly cooked and slightly pink. (I cooked at 140 for 1 hour) The only complaint is that the garlic was still raw when the meat was done. Next time I will roast the garlic a little before inserting it into the loin. Has anyone tried any of those pre-marinated pork tenderloins? I know they aren't ideal as far as quality and ingredients, but it would make it really simple to just grab one at the grocery store and throw it in the tank. They are already vacuum sealed too.

I'm also considering a searzall attachment for my torch. I don't have a grill as an option for my searing. http://www.bonappetit.com/columns/test-drive-columns/article/searzall-test-drive

I just got myself the Anova a couple weeks ago. I love it and have made some amazing steaks and good chicken and pork chops. I'm still working on mastering the sear techniques. So far I have just used my cast iron pan and peanut oil. I purchased a torch and will be trying that out soon. Has anyone else used a torch to sear their meats?

It sounds like I should get the Anova sous vide before any other gadgets.

I'm trying to find out if you can fry things that are dipped in a batter or if it can only fry "dry" items. I have a friend that was very skeptical and just bought one. Chicken wings and fries were a huge success on the first night apparently. I will provide updates as I get them.

I am considering purchasing an air fryer. I have a couple friends that like them, but they are a little culinarily challenged. Does anyone have any insight they would like to provide? I would primarily use it for things like wings, fish fry, french fries, etc. Can you even use them for freshly battered meals like a fish fry?

Looks like it is fake... http://www.snopes.com/marian-robinson-pension/

I'm watching NFL Gameday Morning and the Buffalo vs San Fran coverage has not said a single word about the Bills and a ton of time spent on Kaepernick. I can see talking about the kneeling vegan for the majority of the game preview, but to not say a single word about Buffalo is asinine. One team is 1-4 and the other is on a 3 game win streak. How about a few minutes of Bills talk? Disappointing but not surprising.

Says the guy who started another unnecessary Kaepernick thread to tell everyone how they should protest...

Check out the idiotic crap he talks about on twitter. The guy is a moron and so is his girlfriend.

I usually hop on the train to Hawthorne and walk a quarter mile to the bar. I live right near the stadium and the traffic really doesn't get that bad during games. Nothing like the area around the Ralph!

If you can ever get out for the game, you should stop out to Duffy's in Paterson. There are even a few kids that come with their parents to watch the game there.

Maybe I caught them on a bad night, but it sounded like one long crappy song. It was also in a gym with horrible acoustics so I'm sure that didn't help. If it was outside, the smell of patchouli and clove cigarettes probably wouldn't have been as nauseating.

I'm in Lyndhurst and watch the games at Duffy's. Just curious if you are part of the North Jersey Bills Backers? I never know if the posters on this board are people I've met before at various tailgates or bars!

Rusted Root at St. John Fisher was one of the worst events that I have ever attended. It was a 2 hour hippie bongo session that sounded exactly the same for the entire show. The patchouli stench made an already miserable experience even worse.

You can easily get to NYC and MSG from the Hoboken/Jersey City area by train (assuming the Hoboken PATH train station is open by then). It takes about 15 minutes from Hoboken to Penn Station and it only costs a few dollars. Hoboken is a lot of fun and instead of views of NJ, you have views of Manhattan.

Black Crowes always put on a great show. The first concert I ever saw might just be the best. Aerosmith, Metallica, Black Crowes, and Warrant. It was at the old Silver Stadium in Rochester. It rained for a while and Warrant didn't get to play. Everyone cheered when that was announced. I'm slightly embarrassed to admit this, but Bare Naked Ladies are incredible live.

Jets 2 - Bills 0

I've officially reached my "shut the f*ck up and do your job" point with Rex. He should answer every question with a yes or no and avoid cameras like they were a salad.

I would choose the seats at the 50 yard line.

Steak sauce...If you need to put steak sauce on your steak, you are doing steak wrong. Also tripe.

They are flying rats Just a fancy name for crow Why is their poop white
