mine is pulled beef brisket.. i dry rub it and it tastes like bbq

it's awesome

You sound like a working class chump. I bet you thought it would be a great "investment", how you would come home to a warm, healthy supper to finish off your long day. Maybe, you even had a couple thoughts about all the other nifty little uses you could find for the thing, how it would help you cook healthier meals in general, shed a couple pounds off the old gut, boost your confidence around work and with the ladies. Yeah, maybe that slow cooker would start your life cooking again, wouldn't it? I can see your strained hands holding the box and reading through it carefully at the store. A little bit pricey, but you're the type of guy who thinks everything is more than you can spend, aren't you. And look what happened to you. Look what the slow cooker did to you. Fucked you over, and made you clean it like a useless bitch. You don't even fucking like stews. Piece of shit, you've been repeating those three words your whole life, haven't you. Yeah, how was work after that piece of shit fucked you over? I bet it was on your mind the whole day, you probably didn't say shit to nobody. Can't be telling people about your mistakes. How your little fix yourself plan, failed you. Don't want people to start thinking you're the failure. You're the piece of shit, all along. You don't want that do you? You don't want to be the piece of shit everybody secretly whispers about, do you? Was your father a piece of shit like you? I bet he never had a slow cooker. He had a woman, a house, a damn good job. I bet it's slow cooking you the fuck alive, isn't it. Comparing yourself to him. How one day when all the steam runs our of your life, you'll discover how you're nothing more than burnt shit to be scraped off and thrown in the trash.

I don't get what good a crock pot is. if you want to brown your meat or onions you have to do it on the stove, so why not just use a normal pot at that point?

At a place I used to work we would confit the chicken quarters (well, thirds) in reused oil with a shit ton of rosemary, garlic and seasoning until it was just about done.

We'd then move it to a tray to cool, put it into portion bags, and then when an order came you'd just dump the portioned bag into some buttermilk, dredge it in seasoned flour, and move it to the fryer. It only took 4-5 minutes and came out perfectly crispy on the outside and juicy in the middle.

If you have sous vide shit I'd probably just do what they do on chef steps, though.

>whats chefs teps?

They're like steak teps, but use the lesser quality meat and get called "special".

This is what we did with the left overs. We cut out circles. Put a circle of foie gras on at and a dab of onion jam.

>tfw you accidentally give your gingerbread house a butthole

>garlic aioli

Basically the same as saying "cheese pizza", meaning it's plain, or perhaps has extra cheese.

>steak burgers

Kind of dumb, but it's a way of telling people that the meat was ground on site and didn't come from 200 different animals

>with au jus

It would be more pretentious to put one thing in French, like when Giada overemphasizes her accent on Italian words. At least in 'murrica "au jus" is used as the name of the sauce.

>>7289713
I disagree, not all pizzas need to have cheese. Pizza is about the type of bread its on

I don't need you to say garlic aioli, I know there is garlic in it. tomato ketchup is less redundant than garlic aioli because at lest you can make it with other things.
garlic aioli = chickpea hummus, as in, yeah no shit

>>7289749
What other kinds of ketchup are there? I know of banana, mushroom, and carrot ketchup.

>>7289676
Put them in the oven.

With butter.

>>7289676
garlic and ginger with sea salt will get the skin nice and crispy. There is no substitute. Or make tandoori with tandoori spices thats also delicious

where in Kentucky are you gonna be senpai?

>Good places to eat across an entire state

Be specific senpai, If you were in Hickman and I recommend a restaurant in Concord somehow I doubt you're going.

Ill be in a placed called Hickman for a week.

>>7289580
why do they want that

>>7289607
I second this question, why would you want to watch the typical kfc customer going to the bathroom, that sounds horrifying.

>Bathroom Cameras

Is this a joke

It's not easy I can tell you. If you are really set on the idea I'd recommend just buying various raw ingredients within your budget then just basing meals on those on the fly.

You will not be eating your fave comfort meals every night but I've been doing this and it is a superb way to hone your culinary knowledge/creativity. It's also freeing because you dont need to buy from a list

>what makes a good salad?
Vegetables, sometimes fruit, meats and cheese as well.

>How do I tell what vegetables and dressing to combine?
Most combinations will work fairly well, just experiment and find out what you like.

>any good dressing recipes?
I usually just make vinaigrettes with oil, vinegar, sometimes some honey, sometimes mustard, salt pepper, sometimes minced garlic or chopped fresh herbs. You can use different oils, vinegars, mustards, herbs etc. to get different flavor combinations. Again, experiment and see what you prefer. Or just use google.

Salad should be simple. Start off with a few tasty greens for example arugula-spinach-chard. Dress it (EV olive and balsamic vinegar never goes wrong) and serve with a chicken breast or whatever you like. Again, simplicity is all, too much and you won't appreciate the greens at all.

Once your comfortable in what you like add other things you like: root vegetables, nuts, cheeses, etc. Don't fall for the Caesar salad conception of things, you don't need piles of dressing, croutons and shit, and lettuce is to salad as thin sliced white is to bread.

buy a salad spinner if you haven't already

my salad consumption went right up after i bought a salad spinner

my fave dressing is simple: apple cider vinegar, olive oil (or whatever i have), white miso, whole grain mustard, and just a hint of honey

spend a few $$ on NICE cheese (not the shit from the milk aisle) blue is nice, or feta.. they're all good

nuts are also nice.. pine nuts, pecans, walnuts, coconut

fennel is great .. it taste like licorice/celery

grape tomatos

boiled egg - buy one of those cheap wire egg slicer things they work great

bacon fried hard

avocado

The hand grinders work okay, but I'm looking forward to getting the grinder attachment for my wife's kitchenaid mixer. If you get a hand one, get a higher quality one. I have a universal No. 2 grinder and while it works it definitely leaves a LOT to be desired. I've used it to grind bone in chicken quarters for a raw dog food diet though, no complaints on durability.

1-3 cigs a day, sometimes none at all if I'm having particularly good day.
No food pairs well with cigarette, except maybe if it's something so vile you want to destroy the aftertaste in your mouth fast.

>>7289353
Nice, I used to try some dunhills but they always leave a weird taste in my mouth afterwards.
