Also thinking this will be a great app for a party. Cook it, put it on a stick, and have dip in the middle:

Extra hour will do you for anything that's essentially a single serving.

Rather off-topic, but as this is the only active food thread, my new favourite YouTube channel.

Who says us Brits don't have good cuisine?!

Making this right now and should clarify that the salt % is based on the weight of all ingredients, not just the cabbage.
LDO probably but just in case there is any question in the heat of the moment.

This video and this guy makes me slightly less embarrassed about being an American. In the race to the bottom the Brits are at least making it interesting for us.

Instead of "chips" in the deep fried sandwich, I am going to just buy a roast beef sandwich and deep fry that and see how it turns out.

Looking real good! Has that nice "Chipotle" flattop caramelization thing going on.

My favorite chicken recipe as of late has been Kenji's Serious Eats Peruvian Chicken. Super easy, great with or without sauce - and works just as well in the oven as on the grill.

Have some marinading right now.

Funny you mention that, I did three batches and by the last one the pan definitely had that caramelization going on. Lots more color and texture on that last batch.

I thought they were grilled, is the better way to go cooking them in a pan?

(Ive got the sauce made and a batch marinating)

Could you do these bad boys marinading and freezing them then sous viding them later?

One man's opinion, but I like to 'grill' inside on a fat, naked calphalon pan I have. I'll grill outside, but only on a nice grill that won't leave black juice all over the meat. Which I don't currently have.

I have a cheapo grill currently, and it sucks. I've looked into it because there are reasons for the black juice, but still haven't solved the issue.

Haven't broken the sv seal yet, but I would think no. Worth a try though.

I also temp check and pull ~155-158.

Brits get the fish right. I have to ask at every touristy coastal restaurant if the fish is battered or breaded. Of course good restaurants can cook fish well if breaded of sauteed, but I want my shitty overpriced fish battered and deep fried on the Santa Cruz boardwalk.

Spoiler:
I like Long John Silvers, just don't see them much.

Alternately get real drunk and head over to his house note in hand in an extremely aggressive rage and start yelling at him calling him a coward, rambling about trespassing, shouting about the nerve it takes to be such a judgy POS, and telling him only pu$$ys leave unsigned, name-calling, demand notes.

Finish with a "if this $hit happens again, we're going to have real problems beyond your view of my van - pu$$y".

This should help confirm if it was him or not.

Snipe! The author for this thread appears, where you been man? Let's see some more of your fine cooking! (In before he's been posting often and my dumb ass just now put 2 and 2 together---could of sworn you haven't posted here in a long time)

Anyway, lol at your suggestions, about 20 years ago I would've already done all of them but fortunately I've mellowed out now and dont really care other than killing my curiosity somehow by confirming it was him or whomever

Took a shot at this recipe (read the first few comments after watching for some good lulz):



looked really good but mine didn't come out that tasty nor was it as crispy as hers. My chicken didn't render as much fat so either I had the heat too high or didn't let it cook long enough. Probably under seasoned it as well, garlic and thyme smelled great tho.










This is the second recipe of hers I've tried that looked great but felt flat in flavor. Wish I could try her versions to see what I'm doing wrong

Ok so how many other people made chicken shawarma after 27o's post? I made it last night and it was excellent. I had everything on hand except Greek yogurt and pitas. I recommend making the sauce first in advance and also lightly frying the flatbread. Need to come up with some appropriate side dishes for the next time I make it also.

I did too, it came out great! I made under the broiler rather than searing in a pan, and used a tahini sauce instead of yogurt. I froze 1.5lbs of thighs in the marinade to make again whenever.
