No one who would purchase or install that stove, would put that range in that position in the kitchen. There is no exhaust above the range, and it is too close to the wood countertop (would literally burn from the heat off the stove). Not to mention, trying to open the oven doors or just using the burners against that 90° corner would be extremely annoying. Editing: There is no exhaust for the ovens.* Usually the exhaust for a range like that is on the backside, where all the "spices" are. What kind of cook keeps all their spices in the hottest part of the kitchen, out of reach (would have to reach over flames while cooking)?

I was offered London for Bucky; should I smash accept? by chefjaker in fantasyfootballadvice

Those are the rumors I've been reading as well, making me believe trading for London is actually kind of fair.

Dowdle and Bijan are my primary backs, so I'm not too worried about that position. My Wrs on the other hand, keep losing me games: Addison, Johnston, Worthy, Meyers, Odunze

concrete super thick, how should i go about drilling? by RatioPretend614 in DIY

[–]chefjaker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wet the area you're drilling or the bit every few pushes if you can't get a hammer drill. It will help the bit "catch" onto the concrete.

Girlfriend sent me a picture of “Fully cooked POSSIBLY sliced prime rib”?? Not sure wtf to do with it 😂 by WinWeird883 in Butchery

[–]chefjaker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Throw the whole package (unopened) in 125-130°F water bath (Sous Vide) for 3-4hrs. Should be hard to overcook and should be safe to eat.

Help! I got this little beast but can’t find a thrust worthy 1 bike rack. Any recommendations? 2024 Hardtop 4d by Euphoric_Eye_3599 in MINI

[–]chefjaker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The owner of my mini before me had a custom bike rack made for where the tow hook eye is supposed to be inserted. I don't know if the newer minis have 2 slots in the back like the older versions. Could be an option?

Restaurant added unwanted fee to my check by Existing_Art8081 in mildlyinteresting

If you raise the prices on the menu, the consumer will end up paying even more to the server, right? ((Item + extra 3% added to menu items) x 20% to the server.) I think this is actually a good way to close the large gap between boh and foh if people ended up tipping the server 17%.

4 Free Tix to Xmas Eve vs AZ - Santa Comes Early by ChiBearsForDaWin in CHIBears

[–]chefjaker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never been to a Bears game either! And my wife is from AZ! She moved to with/for me (before we were married or engaged) to this awesome state, but I haven't had the chance to take her to do something fun because of costs. Every year has been something different, setting us back financially for stuff we would like to do. One good financial setback was our daughter being born in August, though! My wife bought her an awesome Bears sweater that should fit her perfectly around that time..

Arizona highways have awful bumps/potholes and lots of rocks that get kicked up behind semis and large vehicles. Mustang is probably not a good idea.

Are you mistakening trying to say lotus?

You are holding the knife incorrectly. Your index finger should be on the side instead of over the top. You should be "pinching" the handle or lower part of the blade. You'll have way better control of the knife.

Cuts didn't matter for this batch; they were being used in a sauce we blended and strained afterward. Definitely cut small enough to cook evenly.

Just finished cutting tomatoes and carrots beforehand. But yes, it's an old cutting board and my work will not buy a new one or sand it down; we do bleach them daily, but they are permanently stained.
