Thanks, still working on temp control but I'm really enjoying it.

Congratulations!

Hit Korin and a couple of local joints in NYC with a pair of fine fellows yesterday.

And for the Gene'

Nice, Nenox. Someday I'll own a Nenox.

What stones are those?

Is that a Hattori 120mm petty? If it is I have that same knife. I like it quite a bit.

What is the Gene?

**Jim** · 12-11-2009, 01:32 PM

Shawn,

The small knife is a Misono Molybdenum Paring Knife.

The knives with wooden Saya Covers are cheap picnic knives that were being closed out.

The stone is a 8000 Kitayama.

The "Gene" is a coffee roaster.

Very nice Jim!

Congratulations!

I think I'll need to test that stone....

Santa came in a brown suit!

Thank you so much for the thoughtful gift!

**Scotto** · 12-23-2009, 09:33 AM

I freakin' love those cheeses. Enjoy, Jim!

**Gravy** · 12-25-2009, 08:13 AM

Santa brought me some lumps of coal !!

20 lbs. of Hardwood lump Charcoal!!

Also a BGE apron so when I step out behind the house in the middle of the night to check smoker temps. I'll look a little more presentable than in just my boxers.

Too many goodies to mention this holiday season, but here are a few. The knife is a Masamoto VG-10 gyuto, 240mm. Mrs. Scotto has good taste in knives!

**Sullybob** · 12-25-2009, 06:17 PM

Great knife and an even better cook book. I like his take on quiche, yummy

and pretty much everything else.

**Jim** · 12-26-2009, 02:47 PM

Congratulations on your knife Scotto, I know you are going to enjoy it!

**ouch** · 12-27-2009, 06:42 AM

So is that flashlight bright enough for you?

Nice knife! (I'm not going to ask how many you have at this point.)
Nice book!
Somebody's been a good boy.

Congrats! Have you ever tried Wicked Good Lump? It is my favorite and burns forever in the Egg.

Got a hand crank pasta machine.
Cranked out some lasagna, probably not the best test, but the easiest to roll out :-P

Made a pancetta & artichoke heart lasagna with a cream sauce. Good stuff!

Have not tried that brand, but will keep an eye out for it.
I do see it listed over in the review section at www.nakedwhiz.com

So far I've tried:
Lazzari (regular)
Lazzari Mesquite
Full Circle
Mali (US)
Big Green Egg
