Not picky, I just know what I like! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Achto 26,554 #210 Posted December 25, 2023 (edited) Smoked Deviled Eggs. To make this it is best to have outside temps of 35f or less. Today, Christmas Eve in North Central Wisconsin it was about 45f but I decided to risk it anyway. Make up your Deviled Eggs as you normally would. (We mix the yolks with yellow mustard, Hellmanns mayo, salt & pepper.) After you have your Deviled Eggs made, sprinkle some paprika on them, add some crushed cook bacon and a thin slice of fresh Jalapeno. Now cold smoke your eggs for 2.5 to 3 hours. These things are like crack to me, I ate half a dozen myself today. Edited December 25, 2023 by Achto 3 1 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ebinmaine 63,137 #211 Posted December 27, 2023 Trina's been experimenting with a her-bilt outdoor charcoal setup. Cooking area is roughly 20 x 30 inches. This evening she made a couple hunks of chicken. Seems to be working great. Wednesday we're hosting a gathering requested by her daughter so the family can get together. Trina's gonna try cooking a whole turkey, splayed open. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
davem1111 1,932 #212 Posted December 27, 2023 Wow, hadn't seen this thread before - good stuff! If anyone here has gluten intolerance, or cooks for anyone who does, I have some things I can share. I made gluten-free cranberry scones for Christmas brunch, and they were delicious - you'd never know they were gluten-free if you weren't told. I make gluten-free muffins of some type just about every weekend. My wife, daughter, and son all have gluten issues, and I've gotten somewhat healthier and slimmer since I've cut down on the gluten over the last 11 years. I think all it does to me is makes me a bit gassy, so I still splurge sometimes. But no gluten in our house. I also use Monk Fruit/Erythritol sweeteners a lot, but not for the kids. Cooking gluten-free is a challenge.... gluten AND sugar-free is a BIG challenge. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have a feeling that the gluten isn’t always the issue, it’s the chemicals and pesticides used on gluten type fields that really mess with people. Anyway, we have one child who has cut out the gluten. It has healed her gut in pretty amazing ways! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anyway, we have one child who has cut out the gluten. It has healed her gut in pretty amazing ways! 1. Use "King Arthur Measure for Measure" Gluten Free flour, at least for anything non-savory. Many GF flours have bean flour in them which tastes terrible in something like muffins or cookies. I now use this for everything, including gravy, etc. 2. Google is your friend, but isn't very discriminating when it comes to quality. We've used a lot of recipes from these sites: https://www.mamaknowsglutenfree.com/ https://www.kingarthurbaking.com/recipes/collections/gluten-free-recipes (there are a few other favorites but will have to look for those later). 3. She has some reviews of the flours here, and it may depend on what you're trying to make as to which is best. I haven't done any yeast baking lately but the King Arthur is supposedly not great for that, so I may pick up some of the other kind(s). https://www.mamaknowsglutenfree.com/best-gluten-free-flours/ One thing to remember is that gluten is what holds a lot of baked goods together. Using Xanthan Gum (which is already in most GF 1-for-1 flours) helps but GF items are usually more crumbly and gooey or sticky. In some cases, adding more egg and less liquid than the recipe says, helps get a better texture. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
