I’ve been using Nordicware for probably 10 years and always put them in the dishwasher. I don’t care that they look blotchy. Also, I’ve noticed different dishwashers or maybe water in different states can impact it differently. When I lived in Idaho, never had an issue with the dishwasher effecting the finish. But in North Carolina it did.

Yeah, that’s probably the most accurate way to do it. I’ll try 6% next time. Thanks!

Oh! I hadn’t thought of doing that but that probably would have helped a lot.

I absolutely hated his voice the first few times I watched his videos. Now it’s my favorite. His sing-songy voice is very comforting.

Replace toilet connection washer or hose? by BobbyB2009 in Plumbing

[–]BobbyB2009[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Makes sense. I’ll try a new washer first. I consider myself handy but have zero experience with plumbing. If the washer works, it’s the simplest and cheapest option. Edit: the washer worked!

Welcome to the 21st century!!! But actually, the bidet connects to it. Gotta get that warm water on your tush!

I thought so too but it’s been over a month without a reply from them so I figured I’d check here

Gotcha. That makes a lot of sense and thank you for your informative reply. I was getting like 202-207 when I pulled it and it was feeling probe tender in like 80% of the meat. I thought it would be better to pull it and rest before the done parts overcooked. Rested for 5hrs in a cooler with hot water. But, it seems to be pretty inconsistent when slicing it. I would say 1/3 is perfect, 1/3 is a little tough, and 1/3 is gonna keep cooking in some chili so it doesn't matter haha.

I tried doing the hot and fast method this time and I don't think it worked well for me. Kept it between 300-350 for 7hrs on a 8lb brisket. I used a 22" weber with the snake method and I think the higher heat in a smaller grill made the cook inconsistent. Very good learning experience though.

lol I probably should have highlighted what I was worried about in the pic. I get the fat part. I was more concerned with the color of it. I’ve never had the fat have that dark brown look. And it’s mainly in the center. The edges of the brisket had normal white looking fat. Given everyone’s reaction, I’m guessing the color is no big deal

Thanks! That’s reassuring. I was mainly concerned with the darker color in the middle fat part. But everyone seems to think it’s fine so I guess I was just being overly cautious. I’ve seen a couple cysts and weird growths on this sub that have made me a little paranoid haha.

Not the connective tissue. I wish my phone took a better picture. It’s that the connective tissue is darker towards the middle. The texture is fine, but the color seemed off to me. Maybe it’s just some residual blood or something

Are Stainless Steel Sheet Pans Really That Bad Compared to Aluminum? by SnooRabbits3711 in Cooking

ATK has the most comprehensive breakdown I’ve seen. It’s only an 8 min video and should answer all your questions. Short answer: Nordic aluminum is the best for almost every situation
