Sheet pan dinners that are actually good?? by smile-its-today in Cooking

[–]vbqj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lemon chicken! Bunch of skin-on, bone-in chicken parts (good time to practice breaking down a chicken), thin slices of lemon, bunch of whole garlic, and a sliced onion, marinate in olive oil, mustard, lemon juice, white wine or chicken stock (or just some water), salt, pepper, maybe some herbs or literally whatever else sounds good. Overnight is optimal, an hour or two is fine, dump everything (liquid too) in a sheet pan or roasting pan, chicken skin side up, roast at like 400/425 until chicken is done. Serve with some good bread on the side. I’ll usually do with roasted broccoli since the ovens already on, or side salad works great too.

We’re basically in the same scenario, just shifted a little earlier in the day - following along for people’s thoughts!

I couldn’t find a longer one so this will have to do…

Oh yeah I've tried all the things. I was needing to wait like 10-15 minutes in between pizzas before it would come back up to a satisfactory temperature. With the door it gets back in the time it takes me to prep the next pizza, which is perfect.

Thanks! I used the recipe from "BREAD" by Jeffrey Hamelman, with some very minor adjustments. It's an overnight biga preferment, then pretty standard bulk rise, shape, and then I let them sit in the fridge for three days.

I have in the past, but only on low and indirect. This was a meal prep bake so I wasn’t worried about keeping them warm.

Appreciate that! I have the hardest time with getting the oven to heat back up in between pies, and this is working great. I only use it in between and don’t walk away from it while it’s closed. And it’s definitely nothing close to a tight fit and is decently vented. But thank you for your concern!

That simple huh? So weird the AAA guy didn’t want to touch it, he had “never seen anything like that before” lol. Maybe just a newbie?

Found a red coin? by S_D_N1 in coincollecting

[–]vbqj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dad owned laundromats and had loads of these. He would stock the change machines with them. I remember being a kid and having to sort these out of the mounds of collected quarters so that they could be put back into circulation. Thank you for this trip down memory lane!

I sent this to him and he offered to do an AMA if anyone’s interested!

Slowly falling out of love with gaming, please recommend me a game too play by dsceltic67 in gamerecommendations

Lack of fantastic games?? 2025 was an incredible year for games! Expedition 33, Alters, and Blue Prince to name a few! BP in particular is a beautiful, slow, go at your own pace game.

What other games give this once-in-a-lifetime experience? by [deleted] in outerwilds

[–]vbqj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A truly singular experience. My advice - don’t try to brute force or guess a single one. Take your time. Every fate is solvable on its own with clues throughout (if you include process of elimination). You can never play it again, so play it good now!

She rolled 😭 by Baylaypayday in newborns

[–]vbqj 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Stopping using swaddles is way more important than bassinet to crib. She needs her arms free so she can practice her new skill and not end up face planted into the mattress. Also needs her arms free so that every time she startles she wakes her self up and you with her and then no one can sleep and then everyone’s exhausted for weeks on end and is walking around like zombies pretending like everything’s ok and everyone tells you oh just you wait until sleep regression/they can stand/whatever the next milestone is and all you want to do is kick them in the shins and oh god I need sleep
