Looking forward to it. Hoping to phase out my coated pans. Keep some aluminium for sauces and boiling but replace larger pots and my frying pans with cast iron gradually.

so So I cooked some pork chops on the salt block thing. All I did was add pepper because I wanted to see what the salt block would do. It made it crazy salty. Now granted they were thin slice pork chop but still they were almost inedible they were so salty. However they were really tender.
That sucks:( Reminds of back in the day the wife Bought a smithfield Ham,cold smoked and aged for like a year.
This was going to be Xmas Dinner for 15 people,followed all the instructions, soaked it water for 3 days,overhauled the water every couple hrs.

We had our daughter, son in law and a couple of grandchildren over for dinner. Didn't even get a chance to take a photo of the rest, it was already nailed. I think I got two chicken wings....:cry:
Man that sucks. Atleast with me it was just experimenting with some cheap chops.
They were quite thin so about a minute and a half each side. I think maybe the fact that they were thin played a part in it too. Maybe if they were thicker then it wouldn't seem so salty as there would be more meat that hasn't contacted salt. I also fried an egg on it as well to because I saw someone do that on the internet and it came out pretty good but it seemed like it took forever compared to using a pan would have taken half the time with just as good of a result. I think I will have to continue to experiment with it.
Either that or I break it up and I have table salt for the rest of my life.
