What kind of soup you making that it takes 4-5 hours bruh. I always make fresh soups and it never takes me over 1 hour. Those instant powder soups are so bad in comparison.

Starting with raw beef or chicken and fresh, uncut veggies
.. The time adds up quick

Lately have been into making soups and stews

Got a nice, quality pressure cooker... And Jesús Christ it was a game changer

Dice up all my veggies. Cut my meat into chunks. Start a teapot of water. Crisp my onions and garlic. Can make an entire soup from start to finish in 35-40 mins... When before it was probably closer to 4-5 hrs

I have no motivation to cook. I did when I lived on my own. We have a pressure cooker but the wife uses it to make these cheeses rice receipe for our boy.

Make a YouTube vid of you cooking and share lol

Made a Basque "burnt" cheesecake this week, turned out okay but i'm going to have to tweak the proportions on it all, the recipe i was following called for a 9" spring form pan, but when you click the link it takes you to the 10", and comparing the batter to pan height between the video and my experience, he definitely used the 10. on mine, the center never really set well and the top go over browned into the actual burnt flavoring, not just caramelized. I think dropping the batter by about 1/4, and cooking it about 10 minutes less should do the trick

I was told the only proper way to make french toast was to toast the bread first. I gotta try this hack.

I've been playing around with smoking a whole chicken. Think I finally got the technique down

Spatchcock a chicken. Rinse and pat dry. Season. Then throw on the grill ~350 deg F for ~1 hour

Comes out juicy, flavorful, cooked.. and with CRISPY skin

Playing with the smoker/pellet grill some more today

Did another whole chicken for the week

I think I finally figured out how to use it... Made some perfect streaks tonight

Gonna try again to make sure it wasn't a fluke.. I should have taken a picture really

And next will be cuts of salmon... I prefer baked salmon.. But my wife loves it pan fried/pan seared

I finally got to use my portable grill. Drove to the park a couple weeks ago and grilled some hot dogs. The only problem is, I haven't cleaned it yet
