    Loved this weeks video. A hint for the hash browns, add a good amount of oil to the griddle first. I love using coconut oil because it's great for high temperatures. The potatoes need the fat to fry up.

  • @apriltownsend8463
    @apriltownsend8463 Рік тому +15

    You have to par-cook the hashbrowns first to get the water out because that keeps them from frying correctly. You just put them in a paper towel-lined dish in the microwave and heat them for 2 minutes BEFORE you actually cook them.

    Hey y'all. Please keep my wife Alma in your thoughts and prayers. She has a bowel blockage and 2 fistulas they're telling her she needs surgery ASAP. She's at UAB (University of Alabama Birmingham) looking at surgery today or tomorrow. (We had thought it was food poisoning on Saturday but it's a lot more serious this time.)

    the black stone reminds me of what is used in fast food restaurants. I would definitely suggest doing a mix of vegetable/canola oil and butter so that the oil can get hot enough, get some butter flavor, but not get things too brown too soon. Hashbrowns do take some extra time on the griddle and maybe a touch more oil. Hope that helps!

    Hi Kristin! Your crispy chicken sandwiches looked amazing and exactly like ChikFilA.. yum. The blackstone looks like fun to cook on, you looked like a real chef! For the hash browns I was thinking maybe if you splashed a small bit of water on them and put a cover on them, they could steam a bit, and then maybe drizzle with oil and fry them up to finish. Love your videos!

I can't wait to try your French Dip recipe. It looks delicious. I'm also going to buy the Private Select provolone my next trip to Kroger. I haven't found one that is flavorful. If there is an Aldi's by you I always buy their brioche buns (regular and slider size) for my sandwiches. I really enjoy your videos. ☺️

    I love my Blackstone. Hibachi style fried rice and stir fry are my favorites to cook on there but I use it for lots of things. Pretty much anytime you would just benefit from more pan space and don't want to cook in batches it works great. Quesadillas, steaks, pork chops, huge batches of breakfast food, you name it. Easy to clean if you season it right too.
    I would recommend picking up some sunflower oil for seasoning. It's kind of expensive but I have found it works the best by far, and you don't use much of it so one bottle will last probably a year.
    Edit: Also for hashbrowns, using either fresh potatoes or the shredded hashbrowns works a lot better. Those diced ones never cook right, I think it's because there's so much surface area the steam that helps the thicker chunks cook just escapes.

    Try dill pickle dip with just mayo and cream cheese with tons of diced pickles. Do not bake and use potato chips to dip with…I’m telling you amazing. When I was younger a brand called Nalleys made a dill pickle dip it was so good also at my Walmart and sams they have a dill pickle dip with ranch. It is very good

    Great recipes!🙌🏻. I dehydrated a couple gallon jars of dill pickles-kinda forgot about them but me intent was to use for dip not that I had a recipe thought out yet but that dip really sounds delicious so I’m going to use it for inspiration! I’m thinking it would work out better with the dehydrated ground up pickles-maybe I’ll video and tag you if it turns out yummy🤪
    Girl! Who needs Chick-fil-A /Popeyes with a chicken sandwich that good!!!
    I added red wine to my French onion soup that I canned-it’s amazing and I use it in tons of recipes! My favorite thing to do with leftover pot roast is French dips just like you made-so yum! Now I’ve got to make roast!😋

    Yummy stuff! For the hashbrowns, you need WAY more oil/butter (or bacon grease) and I probably would have hit them with a bit of water and a cover to steam for about 10 minutes. And way more seasoning. It was a pretty big bag of potatoes and they need seasonings. I prefer canned, sliced potatoes for frying over frozen too. Those pancakes were picture perfect though! Yum!

    Hi Kristin! The meals looked fantastic! Those chicken sandwiches look easy …I’ve been thinking of trying to make a chicken sandwich. But my chicken frying skills well let’s not talk about them. Lol. As for potatoes on the blackstone I get simply potatoes. I find them in the refrigerator section usually by the eggs in my Walmart. They have shredded hash browns, sliced, & diced. The diced come in a couple of flavors but I like the plain the best. I also saw someone my husband watches (I’m sorry I don’t remember who) say they parboil their potatoes for use on the blackstone. I personally haven’t tried it but it looked like it worked well enough. Fresh potatoes I use a lid over them & some water to create steam to cook them faster. Hope that helps a bit. It was a bit of a learning curve for me on the blackstone. Honestly when my husband bought it I never thought we’d use it….fooled myself! We use it all the time! Have a great week!
