I’ve done that, it’s just never took the seasoning off for me. Though, I have a wood grill that gets to approx 1000 degrees that I normally do my steaks on. I’m definitely having steaks for dinner this weekend. Have a whole prime rib eye that I cut up from Costco. I’m going to give them the Koji treatment, which gives…

I don’t know about a metallic taste, but I made a homemade sloppy joe once that ruined the patina. Maybe the pan wasn’t seasoned enough, I don’t know. I will just stick to making tomato based sauces in other pans.

I’ve never had it so hot that the seasoning strips away, but I have had it where acidity has taken it off. When that happens, at least for me, I have to put it in the over on self clean to strip all of it off and start over. If I don’t do that, the surface is not smooth any more due to the areas that came off.…

+1 I use Grand Marnier or Cointreau in lieu of triple sec. It adds just the right amount of depth to a margarita that put it over the top. People always ask me why my margaritas are so good and they don’t realize how simple it is: fresh juice, agave, NO CUERVO!

Gwen, have you found that making dishes like this in your cast iron ruins the patina? I made a tomato based dish once in mine and the acid from the tomato destroyed it and I had to season it all over from scratch!

Didn’t Feinstein have the information a few months earlier? Could it not have leaked from other sources? I love reading these comments because it’s either he’s 100% guilty or 100% innocent. Kind of like our country right now, so far divided. I’ve been back and forth on this story just trying to read the facts, which…

The Chun Li looks verrrrrrrrrry suspicious....

To be clear for the people asking, milkshake IPAs are not what they sound like. They are brewed with lactose sugars. They are a little sweeter than some beers, but I’ve had some that were not that sweet at all. It definitely is not anything like an actual milkshake!

Not sure how I feel about this home cook change, though it doesn’t affect me as I’m a PA res. The reason for using commercial kitchens is to ensure sanitary conditions to prevent the spread of food borne illness, etc. I think a home kitchen, if being used to sell to the public, should actually have stricter rules than…

I agree. As someone who doesn’t play multiple games at once, I had to decide what games I was going to be playing this fall. I’ve been playing Destiny 2 with friends and Spider-Man solo until Red Dead 2 comes out. I figured this Tomb Raider would be more of the same from the last two, nothing new. I’ll definitely…

This is us.

“I enjoy a good meat tube”. - Something I didn’t think I’d read in my entire life.

I’m over weight, probably by 60 pounds. I do not have any real health problems other than slightly elevated BP. Though being over weight, I struggle with fitness, finding clothes that feel good/look good. Worrying about weight limits on step ladders, lol. I don’t have any immediate health concerns, but I still have…

Thank you, Jim. This is exactly what has pissed me off about craft beer as of late. I have always liked beer and trying different styles and types, but the complete snobbery that it has turned into has me almost completely turned off to it. When I read descriptions that say it has “notes of summer meadow” and bull…

I’m planning a brunch for this weekend and this may just make it to the list (aside from the glaze, not sold on that). Instead of tomato powder, i might add some sun dried tomatoes to give a little different flavor as I will be serving bloody marys as well as mimosas. Thanks for this one! Can I not be in “pending”…

These games have a payout factor similar to a slot machine. After so many turns are played it pays out. Limits are usually set by the person who rents the machine depending on the prizes offered. More expensive the prize, the longer it takes to pay out. But it’s totally cool, you keep determining when it’s ok to steal…

I agree, i’m playing alone and i’ve tried to use the online groups, but almost no one wants a solo player who hasn’t done it before. I wish there was in game matchmaking for this.

I also started recently playing when PS offered it for free (without expansions). I’m at level 265 and am considering purchasing the expansions, however, I want to COMPLETE them all in order. They just implemented a new system in which you need Masterwork Cores to infuse ALL items and they are nearly impossible to…

Traditionally, it was made with a sugar cube that had to be broken down. So you would muddle the sugar cube with the bitters and a little water. You would then add a twist at the end (there’s the fruit!). A later version added the fruit directly to the muddling, but is not the original recipe, but is common. Even…

Yup! Just had it last week here in PA. That stuff is great!
