    Am assuming those lower 6 are steak knives on that. Solid grab. Too many knife sets have way too many knives that you don't really need.

    I get best quality cookware, baking pans and knives. I get cheap dishes and glasses because I break things

    I just got a beautiful unique teapot my favorite cousin, a potter among other arts, designed and made. I told him I am afraid to use it. He said it has a lifetime warranty, if I break it he'll make a new one although it will be different.

    My favorite cousin.

    I hate nonstick pans. I would just get a decent cast iron pan. Between my cast iron and my stainless steel set I can't imagine what I would ever need nonstick for. I also have a nice cast iron dutch oven, it's great but I'll eventually get an enmamel coated one.

    I got the Phillips Pasta Maker. Love the thing, it's really fun and easy. Big tip is to weigh your ingredients instead of measure. Pasta is very particular to exact hydration %.

    We have one of those little Weber Q1200 and love it. For the two of us I use it a lot if the kids are over I use the larger one or Traeger

    He is an awesome artist, pottery, mosaic, murals, photography, tile. Everything is offbeat and gorgeous. His husband does upholstery. They like cats.

    Did some homemade Chex mix on the traeger with sriracha and hazelnuts added to the original recipe. Bacon wrapped jalapeños in the air fryer and now homemade chicken fried steak in the cast iron skillet and were GTG

    Yum!

    You’ll like it. Got mine as a Christmas gift last year and we use it all the time. If you’re a Brussel sprouts fan you’ll love them in the fryer

    have them all the time..had them tonight as a matter of fact but they were steamed in an instapot with pork carrots, cabbage and mushrooms...I'm sold...my son has been using his for a couple weeks now. I can use a microwave to make homemade potato chips but it takes about 8 minutes a batch which would make a bag of chips....

    What are your Super Bowl munchies offerings this year? I'm going with the family favorite cheat ribs. Sam the Cooking Guy has this down and the fam begs for it often.
