White and yellow onions have been so sweet this year

Awesome site. I still like Dude Foods better, mainly because of how much bacon that guy uses. While pornburger goes high end fancy, Dude Foods goes low end creative snack madness. He is the master of Bacon Weave. http://dudefoods.com Some of my favorites are: Bacon Weave Choco Taco! http://dudefoods.com/bacon-weave-choco-taco/ Bacon Weave Breakfast Taco http://dudefoods.com/the-bacon-weave-breakfast-taco/ Tacone http://dudefoods.com/tacone/ His failed first attempt at smoked brisket. http://dudefoods.com/attempting-to-make-my-own-brisket/

Here's a pic of the cross section of the biggest the hole / slot gets with my Bread Maker. Not too bad. I don't bother removing the paddles at all after the kneading and rest stages.

Holy crap, Colin. Even without the picture, that burger has me drooling. Oh, and I've taken to ordering 2 Flying Dutchman (with grilled onions) with side Lettuce and side tomato. It's a cleaner way to have In N Out "protein style". Eat with a knife and fork (which you always have to ask them for)

Oh, and my next grilling obsession is this burger. http://pornburger.me/2014/04/02/so-kalbi-maybe-burger/

Many Moar Meat Meet

I'm tempted to make Curry from scratch, but holy hell it's complicated.

I did this one stew style, with chicken, diced potatoes, carrots, and lots of onions. Yes, Golden Curry is nice, but different. I like the complexity of Kokumaro the best so far.

Japanese Curry. Using the Kokumaro curry roux bricks. Like it a lot better than S&B.

You know, we can pretty easily replicate this one at MOA4. Even bake fresh bread rolls too.

Haha, that's awesome. Official shirt for grilling day at MOA4?

The paddles in the bottom are really small and low profile in my btead machine, they make small slots in the bottom. It's not enough to bug me for their convenience. I've heard about people using standard 9x5 loaf pans just resting on the bottom of my Zojirushi with good results. It works well since this one has top heating elements.

Bread Machine finally arrived. Gave it a test run making the easiest generic white bread. Quite decent. Basically a huge dinner roll. It makes for a perfect alternative to wonder bread for sandwiches. This Zojirushi Bread machine is extremely easy to use. The No-Knead Bread method via Dutch Oven sounds interesting. My oven is kaput, and was a piece of shit electric oven. No gas. So other alternative is to use my grill. http://www.seriouseats.com/2011/06/the-food-lab-the-science-of-no-knead-dough.html

Fancy. Sage on top?

Lots of Russian River goodness made after lunch awesomer. MOA4, I'm thinking 4 pork butts should fit in Al's Traeger. Or 2 butts and 1 Brisket if a suitable prime cut can be found.

Foil Wrap time. A few hours left. I tend to wrap when it hits 175-180F since it doesn't really get a nice bark until then in my Big Steel Keg.

Wow, ultimate DIY Squirrel BBQ, despite the small portions. Brisket is slowly progressing, it's at the stall now. One of my food temp probes for my Maverick ET-732 is on tthe fritz, giving me error messages and wildly inconsistent temp reads. Will probably have to replace it. I ordered 2 water resistant probes just in case. And if I can fix the malfunctioning probe, I'll have 4 food probes. Will be able to fully use both my ET-732 's if I need to (MOA4).

Now you're having me thinking of creating a sealed controlled filtered environment. Although my wife will kill me if I go that far for yeast.

Not quite as pretty after being trimmed, injected, and rubbed.

Cheese Fondue. Made it with Cave Aged Gruyere and Emmi swiss. Cave aged gruyere is difficult to find and not great quality lately.

Yeah, I read about how any starter imported will eventually turn into local wild yeast.

I do have a charcoal grill with thick pizza stone and a automatic temperature controller. Closest thing I can get to wood fire oven.

Will be there Sunday at the least.

Ric, loved that article. Haha.

How would you describe the taste of Akaskan Sourdough compared to San Francisco? If it turns out well, I might have to bring the bread machine and starter cultures to MOA4 along with the pork debauchery. DEATH BY MEAT AND BREAD!!!!!!!
