Food

Glad it was alright, it was the local ice cream place, I know there's better elsewhere in London.

Nic was telling me, send the pics over, she was excited!

Looks tasty, guess this could benefit from proper read though.

Also, apparently -

if ever there was a time and a place for freak combine harvester 'accident'...

*prays*

rather than pray for that, maybe someone needs to go put a comforting arm around the designer who had to produce that poster!!!

trufax. all it needs is for the letters to be all shakey, chuck in a couple of badly drawn rockets and cat faces, a quirky cover of a cure song played on a ukelelelele and you've got the credits for a shit indie rom-com starring some cunt called 'Summer'.

I love those movies...

It is in the states...

but they'll eat pretty much anything with waffles i think.

which brings me to this book I now own...

The Phoenix on Cavendish Square does a chicken, maple syrup and bacon waffle sandwich which is deeeeelicious

Bibimbap.. Interesting

harsh, but fair!

I wanted a dirty kebab shop chicken shish tonight. There are no decent dirty kebab shops in my ends so I made my own. Pickled the cabbage and grilled the marinated chicken on skewers with pepper and and onions and everything. I'm really impressed with how accurate and more importantly tasty as fuck it was. Missing only the pickled chilli.

In case you hadn't noticed, most of my adventure cooking is home-made takeaway junk. I'm getting good at it *burp

This is getting dangerously close to hipster ironic behaviour.

Although; well done.

Probably because Aubrey Plaza is in every one of them

Nothing ironic about it! It was filthy delicious. I ate two.

am now looking into PIDs for my Weber Smokey Mountain, either the Rocks Stoker or CyberQ both communicate via wifi so I can control the heat in the smoker and monitor the temperature of the meat that is being cooked

i can't find a UK vendor for the Rocks Stoker

Wow that is a step to far IMO

You can knock something up similar with a pi at alot less.

If I knew how to compute maybe

Someone on here can do it if I can code my Pi to do my electric oven up to 500c and monitor my fridge.

As far as I understand PIDs require some programming and training.

interesting, so you get a kit with temperature probe, controller and fan.

probe records actual temperature, the controller has a temperature desired, or setpoint, and the fan is ramped up and down to produce greater or lesser combustion rate, or heat input.
For the three term controller (PID):

P(proportional) is gain factor, where for every unit of temperature not at setpoint (or deviated) the controller will output a corrective signal of unit*gain

I(integration) is reset, where the area under the deviation curve for a defined time period is integrated and a corrective factor applied as an addition to the corrective signal of unit*gain+reset

D(derivative) is pre-act, where the rate of change of the deviation to required rate of change is compared, and a corrective factor applied as an addition to the corrective signal of unit*gain+reset+pre-act

tldr? - the fan would be whacking out 100% output until the desired setpoint is reached, then will fall back and 'idle' to maintain the temperature. Using the PID will determine the time it takes to reach desired% fan output

Tis all g(r)eek to me.

Have ordered the cyberq

Long term I think I'd like another even bigger smoker though my partner is not sure she wants any more BBQ gubbins in our garden.

Have also ordered meat from a small independent slaughterhouse in Cornwall for party next weekend, two beef briskets, 2 pork shoulders, racks of baby back ribs, and 8 beef short ribs. All coming from small holding farms with high standards of animal welfare.

the great cornish meat exodus of 2015

Few dishes mean summer to me like caprese does
