Went to a really nice Neapolitan pizzeria this evening for the FIL's birthday. Tried a mushroom pizza with some sort of truffle pate.
Did not like, unfortunately. The pate tasted like garlicly slime and massively overpowered everything else. That may be how it's supposed to taste, but I only like garlic in small doses. I'd make a very poor Italian. :-) [Reply]

Chicken turned out really good. That Tony's is legit. I was really hovering over these things on the grill with my Thermapen. Breast turned out great! [Reply]

To brine or not to brine that is the question. [Reply]
Sadly my grilling days for the year may be over, it was a record 73 degrees yesterday and a cold front is moving through. I don't have a deck or a gas grill that I can just walk out the door and start cooking on, mine is charcoal off the downstairs patio, not exactly a great setup for grilling in the winter. [Reply]

Every respectable Italian outfit I've been to hasn't had overwhelming garlic.

:-) I'm glad I'm not the only idiot doing this. It's easy. Pull it off at 152 or whatever. Riiiight.

Ok, that one is actually funny.
I often do brine, but not always. The salt and fridge is a dry brine. If it’s good enough for Alton Brown’s turkey, it’s good enough for my chicken. Inmem can fuck off, he’s being douchey here, which is usually his safe space. [Reply]
