Is there a rule of thumb about how many square inches do I need in order to cook for a given number of people? I need to figure out how big of a Weber do I want to buy.

Too fucking much sauce. Why not just make spaghetti soup? Learn to dress pasta properly, not like an amerilard, faggot.

Since I'm allowed to grill on the balcony in my new apartment (2. floor), I'm planning to buy a grill.
Aside from normal BBQ stuff, I'm also planning to do bigger projects like Pulled Pork.
A gas grill seems way more convenient given my situation, but I'm kinda concerned about the cost for longer projects. I did a bit of research and e.g. a Pulled Pork session could easily empty a big part of a 5L gas bottle, which would put me at around 8-10 € cost per bigger projekt. But then again, getting rid of the coal ash seems like a major hassle.
What kind of grill should I go for? Any suggestions?
>>8733792
Gas is more convenient, charcoal/wood produces a much better flavor because of the smoke. When you are grilling (as opposed to smoking or slow BBQ) charcoal is also superior because it burns hotter than a propane flame.
I can't comment on the cost since I don't live in Germany.
As for the coal ash, I just dump it outside in my yard. You can also throw it away in the trash (once it's cool, of course!)

A 5L bottle refill should be around 10€ - 12.5€.

I could use a smoke box. Not ideal, but better than nothing.

I have a propane grill because the waifu, "the charcoal ashes are so nasty, let's get gas," and I hate it. I also have a smoker that I do long projects like pulled pork or ribs. I would definitely get charcoal instead of propane if I were you, especially since you want to do longer projects.
Sunday lunch for now.
Going out for a curry later tonight.

is that beef jerky or are you really that shitty of a cook?
Alright /ck/ let's get another sourdough thread going. How have you used your starter lately?
>>8733530
That looks like some Pillsbury shit.
>>8733530
I can't start my own culture that doesn't end up smelling like swamp ass.
Where can I buy a good inoculant for a starter?
>>8733558
I've bought King Arthur Flour's live starter (it arrives in a little container, soft and active, you just begin feeding it flour and water), and I've also bought Sourdough International's dried starters...
KAF's were definitely easier to get started since they were live and fed from the beginning. Sourdough International's advertising shtick is that their starters are all from different regions of the world, and they claim they all have different characteristics. I'd just go with KAF's fresh starter, but they're both about the same price.
Maybe kind of a weird offer on 4chan, but I could also send you some.
How important is it to develop flavor while cooking?
Very. A great deal of the flavor from a dish comes from the cooking technique rather than the ingredients and seasonings used.
>>8733463
That's your opinion.
>>8733454
take a bite out of a raw onion
now take the rest and saute it until golden brown and taste that
now answer your question by yourself
ITT: Fatty things you sometimes do
>I eat bran flakes cereal with a slice of cake in it
sometimes I eat chocolate, sometimes every day even
>>8733359
What? So you just toss a slice of cake in with cereal? Why?
Instead of Dunkaroos, just buy a bag of Teddy Grahams and a tub of birthday cake frosting.
It's Dunkaroos, but big-boy portioned.
What is your favorite cooking show /ck?
Mine is the youtube show Binging with Babish

How has s
he lasted on Food Network for so long? With the same show format, too. Food Network has gotten rid of so many good shows and personalities. What makes Guy so different?
>>8733263
who's to say?
>>8733263
He reminds the baby boomers of their drug years. It's a nostalgia thing.
>>8733263
He's like the Ina Garten of fast food joints!
See this steak? That's right. Looks and tastes great. But did you know this steak is entirely vegan? That's right: all the greasy, meaty, juicy flavor of a perfectly done ribeye, without the guilt. Now you have no more excuses to eat meat.
Your move, meat eaters.
Awww, no fair! You vegans get ALL the good food!
>>8732772
It is meat but vegan???
If the taste and texture and smell were all the same, or at least damn close, and didn't cost double, sure I'd eat it. What's the brand name?
Name a more iconic duo.... I'll wait.

Jeeves and wooster, now fuck off.
Within 5 to 10 years, lab grown milk/eggs/meat will be entering the market.
m.digitaljournal.com/life/food/vegans-can-eat-milk-meat-and-eggs-again-thanks-to-microbes/article/459806
Lab grown milk promises to be the same or better than regular cows milk.
https://qz.com/761572/a-lab-made-vegan-milk-promises-the-same-taste-look-and-texture-as-cows-milk-2/
With regards to meat, as long as it tastes at least as good, and is molecularly similar (to my knowledge, lab grown beef is produced with real cow DNA), it's all fine with me.
For the milk... I have similar requirements for molecular similarity. I don't want to drink milk that is free of lactose.
>>8732415
I definitely would eat lab grown meat. If the growing process just saves half of the resources needed for real meat it would solve so many problems.
>>8732431
This desu, although what I really hope is that lab grown meat will take us from this trap of being obsessed with only beef/pork/chicken to having ethical versions of a wide variety of meats so we can actually increase the diversity of our food again.
Give me lab grown tiger and whale meat.
Why do you guys like velveeta? What is up with that? Is it because you're poor?
God it's this autist again
>>8731825
Yes
>>8731825
because corporate America convinced my parents generation it was good. I always found it pig disgusting and refused to eat it.
How do you like to use guacamole? Just bought some for the first time.
>buying guac
Nigga that shit is dumb easy to make. How lazy are you that cutting up an avocado and mixing in a few things is too much work?
Goes well with other meme foods like corn chips and burritos
>>8731589
You're gonna need to just eat it with a spoon. If you don't like want to do that than just eat it with chips.
Sometimes I'll drink a cup of each in a day, Usually tea in the morning and coffee at night
No caffeine after 1:00pm for me
>>8731503
Maybe it's a psychological think because drinking either makes me go to sleep faster
fuck me, i drink 3 cups of coffee almost daily.
at this point i drink coffee for the taste rather than its effects. tea just isn't my thing.
