So I'm going to be smoking beef brisket and I was stuck between hickory and mesquite (out of cherry and apple) I'm not picky and generally use hickory, but I decided to do some research because I almost never use beef either (all our BBQ's have been pork or poultry, beef isn't popular here)
Anyway, I came across a suggestion that said: Mesquite for beef, Hickory for pork, fruit bearing trees for poultry and fish.
Is there any validity to that?
welcome to bbq pitt boys dot com
I use hickory for muh beef. Turns out great evertim

I was actually on a site called "the smoke ring" but as an ex chef I've never heard concept before it was always up to preference. I have a cherry tree so that's typically why I use cherry.
what the fuck is his problem?
Same as every other prick whose main accomplishment was being born in the right family: he's a spoiled prick and everyone hates him

Apples > Oranges
You've lost the plot, kid.

Not much of a contest when you've got these on your side:
apple pie
apple juice
apple cider vinegar (e.g. bbq)
hard cider
candy apple
apple chips
What do oranges have? Orange juice and orange marmalade? Lame.

Peaches > both
Has anyone tried meat analogues before? Do they taste good at all?
Tofu tastes like tofu. Corn protein tastes like shit. That's all I've tried.
tofu tastes nasty to me but gardein is amazing!!!! if you live near a krogers which a lot of people on /ck/ do their brand is also great. I'm trying to make my own seitan as well.

Vegan here, I'll run down the most common types:
>tofu
Tofu is tofu. Not really a meat analogue, but essential for other recipes and uses.
>Tofurkey
Tasty with gravy and stuffing, on its own it's alright. Doesn't replicate the stringiness of turkey but matches the chewiness.
>Deli slices
Chewy and slick. Don't take to heat well for uses like panini or grilled cheeses. Buy once for the novelty...

Anyone have any old cook books? I've another from a couple hundred years ago somewhere around here, too.
Even around a hundred years ago they talked about income not keeping pace with food costs.
Here's the rest of the preface, just cause.
Pls post more OP
Hi /ck/. I inherited these knives from my grandpa. They have no markings except for what's on the photo and I can't read moonrunes. Are they any good?
My grandpa gave me nothing, I piss on his grave every year.

Mix it all up, son.
Cavendish bananas are for smoothies or sandwiches, not fruit salads.

Aren't persimmons a winter fruit?
Oriental grocer near me has dark purple dragon fruit and they are just pure sugar. For years I kept trying the white ones and wondering why anyone gave enough of a shit to cultivate such a bland fruit. Handy rhyme: go non-white, dark is right.

Meat should be cut smaller and distributed more evenly, and some of the onion looks undercooked but I'm not sure.
I would still eat it and probably enjoy it though.
>>7796551
It's not undercooked.
Distribution its almost even D:

What texture is good pie crust supposed to be? I've never had pie, and all the pies I've made so far are soft on the bottom but crispy on the edges and top. They taste good, but I'm wondering if the bottom should be crispy.
I wouldn't call it crispy, necessarily, but it shouldn't be soggy. It definitely should be flaky and golden brown underneath.
Are you baking the bottom by itself before adding the filling and top? Because you're supposed to.
Otherwise it's just going to steam with all that shit on top of it.
looks like a really fine 'go'za OP
I make my pies incredibly soggy because I like them that way. Just to cook things how you like them.
Why are peanut butter cookies the best?
>inb4 you shouldnt bake cookies on a pizza stone
>>7796172
Those aren't snickerdoodles though, those aren't lemon bars, but those aren't toffee caramel cookies.
Snickerdoodles are good
You shouldn't bake cookies at all, the dough is much better.
Hey /ck/ inviting my chef brother to my house for a week and would really love to show off my pantry to him. What should I stock my pantry with?
I'm sorry, what? Does he hail from famine-struck 1840s Ireland? What do you mean by show off your pantry?
put all your dry goods like pasta in big jars
he'll be absolutely awestruck
Buy a shitton of sweets as you always do fatty
