Yeah, when boiling HDs the usual way, what I used to do was drain out all the water, score the HDs diagonally all around, then “fry” them in the now-dry pot ’til they’d leach out some fat, cook in it, and brown a little bit all around.
It’s goooooood eatin’!
Gotta scour out the pot afterwards, ’cause the fat “boils out” to dark marks on the pot, but it’s worth it
Wish I had those roller-type HD cookers like you see at ballparks, 7-11, etc. Crank up the heat, let ’em cook ’til they’re shrivelled up like slim-jims, and… oh, man, I’m getting so hungry now…
I got one of these off Amazon a few years ago. Works perfectly. That or the grill is the only way I like em. You’re right, the longer they are on there, the better they get.
Got this Lodge LGP3 Rectangular Cast Iron Grill Press today. . This thing is heavy at 2.1 pounds! I’ll be using it to keep bacon flat and for making smash burgers.
Got a gallon of WD-40 and a SureShot Sprayer for the WD-40. It works much better than the standard aerosol cans for my needs. I’m using it to coat my drill press exposed steel surfaces and any steel tools that may rust in my garage. It has a much wider spray pattern and finer mist than the aerosol cans. You simply fill the can three-quarters full, and pressurize it with 120 psi and you’re off and running. It works great.
Ordered my 5th Brickwall Filter. I’ve been using these to protect my electronics since the mid-1990’s. Never once had a failure with anything protected by one of these devices. Trust me, it’s light years better than MOV protected surge protectors. Not inexpensive, but it’s cheap if you have expensive equipment that needs to be replaced if there is a major surge from a lightning strike. That said, it will not protect against a direct strike, nothing will.
