re: Leidenheimer french bread
Posted by kclandcruiser on 4/7/21 at 8:55 am
I've made the KA recipe a few times and have had good luck with it. Not exactly the same, but pretty dang close and worth doing. Definitely going to have to try the other recipe you posted...
re: Hurts Donuts reopening in the CBD (maybe?)
Posted by kclandcruiser on 1/5/21 at 12:48 pm
I'm not a fan and am fairly close to the one in Kansas City. They always seem stale and overly sweet. Would much rather have a traditional donut from a local place than anything from there...
re: Recs for steakhouse in KC?
Posted by kclandcruiser on 12/28/20 at 11:27 am
I would suggest Antons or Stock Hill Grill. Anton's butchers and dry ages their beef in house. Stock Hill is more of a swanky vibe and has an awesome bar/lounge area for cocktails. I think a few others mentioned in this thread have either shutdown for a break or closed.
It'd probably be a saf...

[quote]Not quite. Mahomes won’t be that lucky forever. Those risks he takes will start turning into turnovers. Also not sure what their cap space looks like but can they afford to keep Hill, Kelce, etc. when contracts come up?[/quote]
Mahomes signed through 2031
Hill signed through 2022

re: Omaha Steaks or Kansas City Steaks?
Posted by kclandcruiser on 12/17/20 at 10:01 am
You might be a little late on the draw to make it for Christmas, but Creekstone and 44 farms seem to have a great product. There's most likely a high quality beef seller somewhere close by to you. Also, like previously said, a whole prime ribeye from Costco or Sams is hard to beat...
re: Want to sous vide a roast/hunk of meat for Sunday.
Posted by kclandcruiser on 12/3/20 at 10:02 am
Go with the tri tip. Like the above advice said, sous vide the day before and throw it in the fridge overnight. But, I would differ on throwing in the SV for an hour to heat up. I like to sear with the meat cold so I can get a better/harder sear without having to worry about overcooking the meat...
re: Made Bacon for the First Time
Posted by kclandcruiser on 9/1/20 at 4:18 pm
The basic recipe I go with is:
Salt: 2-2.5%
Curing salt: 0.25%
Brown Sugar: 1.25%
Then, I typically add (1) 1/4t of pickling spice and 1/4t of black peppercorns per pound of belly.
From there, add any other flavorings you want. This is a good base where you can experiment from there with...
re: Made Bacon for the First Time
Posted by kclandcruiser on 9/1/20 at 1:01 pm
Looks like a good first run!
For the smoking side, I always try and dry it out on a rack in the fridge for 24 hours to form a pellicle if I have time. Then, when smoking I start out as low as I can get my smoker, usually somewhere around 140-160 then keep it at the temp for 4-6 hours and bump ...
re: Grand Rapids Brewery Recs
Posted by kclandcruiser on 8/25/20 at 9:19 am
I highly recommend Brewery Vivant and Speciation Artisan Ales.
Speciation does a lot of really cool naturally fermented beers.
Brewery Vivant is in an old funeral home and has great food and atmosphere...
re: Cooking steaks
Posted by kclandcruiser on 7/31/20 at 8:46 am
Sounds like a fun undertaking. One thing to add, I'd probably rest the steaks off the heat for a few minutes to slow down cooking before tossing into the cooler and then have someone open the coolers up every so often to vent them so they don't build up too much heat.
This comes from a lot of ex...
re: Educate me on sour beers
Posted by kclandcruiser on 7/23/20 at 12:27 pm
AC, great run down on sours! I'm a big fan of Cantillon and 3 Fonteinen. A good gueze with barbecue or a fatty cut of meat is a thing of beauty.
I was lucky enough to try a Cantillon that was bottled in 1976 a year ago and the taste was almost indescribable. Naturally fermented sours vary so g...
re: Thermapen sale...$59

I have the Smoke x4 by them and really like it. I've only had it for a month and used it a few times, but it has been great so far.
I had decent luck with an inkbird bluetooth unit for about a year before the battery stopped taking a charge. The app with that would get cumbersome though. I like ...
re: What’s on the menu for the 4th of July?
Posted by kclandcruiser on 7/2/20 at 9:31 am
Ha no teams, probably only have 20 or so people to feed. I have a 500 gallon offset pit that I bought 2 months ago and haven't had an opportunity to fill it up. Decided Saturday was going to be the day to let her rip. Everyone will be going home with plenty of leftovers. ...
re: What’s on the menu for the 4th of July?
Posted by kclandcruiser on 6/30/20 at 10:33 am
Sounds like some great menus. Mine so far is:
8 racks of spare ribs
2 pork butts
6 whole chickens
Couple pans of beans
6 lbs of sausages
Thinking about throwing on a brisket or 2, but not sure if I want to deal with getting up at 2am to get that started...

I've recently taking a liking to the Emmolo Merlot and see you've mentioned Caymus a few times in this thread.
Any other suggestions that you might be able to make similar to that one?...
re: Anyone here have a blackstone griddle?
Posted by kclandcruiser on 5/27/20 at 12:59 pm
If you want to get a flat top for your grill, I'd recommend looking into a set of grill grates. They have holes in them for the grease to drip down while keeping flare ups at bay. Amazing for smash burgers or searing off skirt steak. Difficult for fajitas or anything sliced up since they don't ha...
