I have no issue with this. The kid was radicalized without being nudged by the FBI. They merely tested whether he was so committed that he would commit an act in furtherance.

Whew. That was close. I thought the entire thread was loaded with complete idiots. You give me hope now. :cheers:

Imagine being upset that a business became successful enough to replace the dumpster-view seating section.

re: Jambalaya- In what order do you brown your meat?

So you are deglazing with the pork still in the pot and then let the stock cook off to form the fond again

Yeah. The only thing that ever comes out of my pot is the bacon. I fry that first. When you pour a little water/stock in to deglaze you will start braising the pork, which gets it tender. As far as keeping it from burning, I run a low fire and stir often, without scraping the bottom.

When I add the stock and scape the bottom clean I'll usually put the lid on for 15 minutes to keep some of my liquid in for tenderizing purposes. Then remove the lid and let the liquid cook out. Stir the pork but don't scrape the bottom. You need that dark sticky fond to build back up again but not get black.

quote:
then you put chicken in there to brown?

Yeah. I'll push the pork up the sides all the way around to open up the bottom and dump the chicken in. It will release a lot of water that you will use to deglaze the bottom of your pot again. But I don't ever "brown" my chicken. I just cook it for 15-20 minutes until I don't see any raw chicken, stirring occasionally.

I run a low fire until I add my final liquids. When that's in, I crank it to high and stir often to ensure the bottom of the pot stays clean. Once I get a good boil going, rice goes in, fire still on pretty high and stir damn near constantly. Longest it will go unstirred is probably 30-45 seconds.

It's why I rarely ask questions here. Most everybody would rather try to be funny than helpful. I've never been to the FCF so I can't offer any advice.

What I posted in the other jambalaya thread:

quote:
Bacon first for the grease. Fond will start to form in the bottom of the pot. Remove and snack on. Marinated pork goes in next. This is where you will really get your fond built up, which is your color for the dish. It will make a bunch of liquid at first but cook that out, let the bottom get a little sticky, then add some water or stock to deglaze. Let that water cook out again and the bottom to form your fond again.

Yeah we cooked in these simply for the participation part of it. Go have fun, put out a good product and have a couple of beers. Most all of these are judged by folks with no culinary background whatsoever. That's also why I don't seek these out. I just get asked to put a team in often because they know I don't mind helping out a fundraiser.
