Daff

And I noticed that during the opening, with customers, she went back to spreading sauce on the bottom! Typical.

Dutton told Josef earlier in the series that Montana didn’t have free land like Oregon did. Josef didn’t want to work through the winter to earn money to buy land in Montana. Based on that exchange, I assumed he was staking out his claim in Oregon, just not within sight of Thomas.

It was easy to miss.

Kendal hasn’t learned a thing..moreover, I’ve never seen a reverse sear applied to chicken or pork. It’s used on good cuts of beef, in combo with short time in the smoker! (Low temp)

I agree with your post, but the cup isn’t plastic, it’s made of biodegradable plant material (degradation before consumer use?). Also how does it hold up to hot water? He mentioned coffee , he must be too young to remember how BAD instant really was!

They all spoke and performed better this episode because they didn’t have to contend with each other. Left to their own devices, they’re all capable of running their own show. I do wonder, though, what effects the electronic/digital printing process has on the safety of consumables. That’ll take long term research.

Congrats to Wayne, but dude, two checks for doneness would be poke the center or use a toothpick! How much time did he waste lamenting and staring at them-with the oven door open?!?

His voice over the radio waves alone clued me in to the time period.

There are: Ernie Dicken’s puppies Mrs. C keeping house for Geordy and Cath maybe a mystery or two and the new, somewhat improved Larry

Maybe he’s got a kickin’ dry rub to go with it!

I thought that too. Laughed when Ramsay said, “I want that bottle of sauce!” I’m thinking he wants to sell it with his label-but the description of it so very much resembles a dozen others out there. It would be a nice consolation for Kendal, though, if he’s sent home. (As described, it sounds like my fave: Dinosaur Roasted Garlic and Honey)

I think it’s to capture a wider, younger audience for his brand using tech. He seems to be looking more at the business side than food prep and presentation. I’ve always loved his quick videos where he cooks one item, showing step by step, puts it on a plate, and says, “Done!”

On the initial test presentation, he had a huge pot of underdone, lumpy mashed potatoes..there’s no salvaging that.

Perhaps this will be the first time Ramsay throws in the towel and says none of you deserves the quarter mil-offer rescinded!

Yes, seems like her experience was bleak and joyless except for Tony.

I think that restaurant scene was a one-off, meet the sister. They just gave her a cameo.

July 30 is a Sunday, therefore, July 27 cannot be. Happy this is back, though. Plan to buy some of the books.

Probably for the same reason motorcyclists wear leathers in the heat. One scratch (cattle horns, snake attack, thorns) could result in sepsis and death.

I agree, but typically, it’s a male trope.

Trixie! Obviously played when Helen George was pregnant. Liked the voice.

Apples have long been used, especially in the NE apple country to flavor meat, and temper harsher flavored veg. Sauerkraut, onions, cabbage, all root veggies blend well with apples.

Hearing her explain her heritage at the initial gathering, I got the impression that her parents were busy making a living and providing for her so that she would fit in. Perhaps too busy to maintain cultural practices. She’s definitely feeling “lacking” and the liaison is giving her incredulous looks (but he’s a bit kinder and more patient than the others).

Stranger, I believe. But it was a ridiculous plot contrivance-are we going to find out the victim was deaf? Who boldly walks out into the road without looking in the presence of loud, full throttle, motorcycle noise?

One more: I make Johnny cake and baking powder biscuits all the time-from scratch (wouldn’t sully my grocery cart with boxes of Jiffy or Bisquik).

And kudos to you for that inclusive list! Not a thing on there I don’t love. I do have to mention one pet peeve. It should be illegal, punishable by repeated ocean dunking and revocation of restaurant license, to serve shredded lobster “salad” and call it a lobster roll on your menu. One more: absolutely love red Reubens on pumpernickel with thousand island dressing (pickled red cabbage replaces sauerkraut).
