I ran out of charcoal. Had to use dry Hickory chunks. Its a much hotter fire all together.

On the plus side everything smells great now!

SigOther is in Japan, so I got a ribeye and will cook it French style tomorrow - sear both sides and into the oven at 400 for 4 minutes. I have a plan.

That’s probably the best way to cook meats. That technique keeps the juices in.

And when you live in a small apartment and don’t have a grill, you do what you can. Allclad has saved me.

Anything is better than a gas grill imho.

Nice. I want an All Clad skillet someday. For now, I do almost all of my cooking on my trusty cast iron skillet.

Want to know what’s wrong with a parfait? You cant grill a parfait.

12 inch steel pan, but no nonstick - learn to cook without a nonstick surface. And get a saute like this, or bigger - in both cases, buy AllClad seconds - all my pans but one are seconds, and it really makes no difference (and saves a lot of money).

Don’t bother with the copper bottom stuff - it’s overpriced, and it does not heat much more evenly than the stainless. Trust me, I know.

Haha, I’ve done my research. TBH, I am thinking about going to a restaurant depot store and buying commercial quality pans.

We’ve got those stores here (mostly on The Bowery) and you can get great pots and pans for not much money.

That’s the point. :) What do you mean All Clad seconds?

You can order AllClad at 2/3 price from places like this - I’ve done some business with them, and they’re good people: https://www.cookwarenmore.com/

You get slightly flawed seconds (and I’ve never seen a flaw) for cheap.

Not with that attitude you can't
