Haha. Does it help that I served it with thick, juicy burgers?

That's the wrong gif. Here is the correct one

I hardly ever use my cast iron anymore since I got my carbon Steel's, but damn... that's a lot of cookery.

So what's best way to restore this piece I picked up recently? Only $30 when I feel these huge pots are much more expensive new.

Took my first real shot at a vegetable dish and it came out great.

Red Onions, Red Bell Pepper, Yellow Bell Pepper, Garlic, Brussels Sprouts, Small Potatoes, Cajun Sausauge and Bacon. Seasoned with the pan drippings from the bacon/sausage, Garlic Powder, Italian Seasonings, Salt, Pepper and Balsamic Vinegar.

It turned out so well I made it two nights in a row and last night I made it at a friend's house and added chicken wings. Everything came out great but I need to figure out how to get more flavor on the wings.

I’ve done this with skirt steak and can confirm it’s real good

How'd you make the wings? Just roast them with the rest of the dish? They're basically just skin and white meat, so if you want to add more flavor, your options are breading, deep frying, sauce, or smoking. It just doesn't seem like the right dish for wings imo

While he is a good chef, and has good recipes and plenty of talent, he is an annoying sumbitch to watch.

I just placed them on top, flipped them halfway through. THey came out perfectly cooked just not much flavor. I was thinking of marinating them for a few hours before next time.

Marinating is a myth, they won't absorb the flavor, as apposed to brine which will at least keep them moister. You could toss them in some kind of sauce just before serving like a lemon pepper, garlic, butter, etc. Get some kosher salt for your brine.

The sauce idea might be the ticket. The texture and juiciness was absolutely perfect and I hate making chicken due to how easy it is to fuck it up.
