Yum, I use the 10 min marinades, because i dont have time to do the others!


This makes no sense to me. Chuck them titties in there before you go to work, return home and win at life.

I buy bulk, so I love a premarination. Cryovac. Freeze that bitch. Posted Image yeah. If it's vac-sealed you can defrost it in ten/twenty minutes.

OK. So that when you use this information on others, I will give it a quick disclaimer.

It is ALWAYS going to be better to defrost at a slow rate, fridge temp even...

With cryo sealed, you know that you aren't going to get any water in, so you can fill a bowl with water and defrost it in there - for chicken, probably twenty minutes, fish is about ten, steak will still take a half hour - but still killin' just leaving her on the bench.

Some smart arse will likely tell you that it's not 'correct' to do it this way, but it works sweet as a nut in a pie covered in maple syzzzzzurp with some icing sugar on top.

I ain't dead yittt.

The microwave WILL partially cook your food. If you go DIRECTLY from the microwave to the pan - you're generally OK. But, I'm talking DIRECTLY, have that pan hot, salted, and oiled when your three beeps are sounding.

"It's only cooked a little bit" - I've heard this before - the cooked bit isn't the problem, the bit that's partially cooked in between, is!

You should never put 'hunks' of meat in the microwave for defrost, you must only be putting uniform single layers into the microwave.

Also, if you're not using commercial crockery, the glaze will find itself a lot hotter and add to uneven heat distribution.

I Posted Image'ing hate microwaves... but I love Mexican food...

First thing to consider before buying a vacuum sealer - how big is your freezer? Long lost seem to be the days us Strayan's had a god damn bench freezer in laundry for fishin'trippery - so ask and answer that question first.

Secondly - the vac/sealer I bought cost me around $70 - BUT - remember the bags are not reusable, so there is an ongoing cost.

Thirdly - it's the only way to go bro. Seriously, we've broken down about 40% from our 6 monthly expenditure simply because of bulk buying and breaking down into meal sizes.

Do you vac seal your own meat?


....hahahahahhahahaa.
