If you eat your ground beef less than medium, I hope you get seriously sick from E.coli.

As to the person who said mayos more dangerous than eating raw beef, all I can do is because that is one of the most ridiculous things I've heard all year.

Guess you're right.. I do however like the craft of making food, it's creative and makes me happy and leftovers are always awesome

You can't smoke anywhere public here.. been so for about 10 years. I have no idea about France, but we smoked everywhere in Spain

That is just horrible, then again if they paid me I would not care, it's my resources that they are ruining and my work and I do not get paid for it..



Yeah, I understand that. The only time I get spun up about it is when I'm cooking for a group of people and I spend time cooking for them, not being able to partake in the conversations and socializing because I'm cooking, and I ask how they'd like their meat grilled or something and then I go and cook it and when I serve it and finally sit down and eat with everyone, some asswipe says "Oh sorry [Cawlin] I forgot to tell you, I like mine well done!" and they expect me to get up and let my food go cold as I go and burn their food for them... or "Oh I can't eat this because I can't eat onions!" and I'll ask "Are you allergic?" "No, I just can't stand them, it's not the flavor, it's the texture" or any of the other myriad of infantile food complaints that their parents never made them grow the fk up and out of.



BBQ'ing is a lonely task unless you're a bunch of dudes and the women are inside fixing everything else, then it's awesome.. standing around the grill catching some sun sharing lies and a few cold ones.

Cooking inside isn't a problem in my condo my kitchen and my dining room is the same room so I can socialize and cook at the same time.

Yeah, I do not do vegan or allergies.. or I do not tweak my recipes after it, if there is a dietary issue I simply make something vegan enjoyable without sesamy seeds or whatever the allergy is.

My brother is tricky, he's gluten and lactose and he does not like pork.. f'kin moron that guy is, pacifist does not like weapons either or fishing or whiskey..

Depends where your mayo and your beef comes from.

Like anything else. No food is inherently dangerous raw. Well, almost no food. It all depends on how it's been handled.

The funny thing about this is the mis/disinformation.

See, the bad e. coli that will make you sick doesn't die until it gets to 160 F (72 C).

Rare for beef is at around 120-125 degrees, medium is 145 degrees. Well done is 160 and up.


You aren't killing e. coli if you're only cooking to medium. So all of you who think that rare is begging for disease where medium isn't, are just being silly.


As for the mayo thing - it's a question of raw eggs, spoilage, and salmonella. Spoilage won't necessarily make you sick, but it will taste like siht. Salmonella is pretty rare nowadays but if it's present, it's there whether the mayo has spoiled (not the result of salmonella) or not.

See, now I don't care if a vegan or someone with some sort of allergy wants me to prepare something that they've brought. If I invite people over, I will tell them what I'm planning on serving so if they have any issues I expect them to speak up if they have issues and bring something that they can eat. One friend regularly brings over these nasty vegan burgers whenever I am grilling and asks me to throw those on for him, which I am happy to do.

We would probably get along just fine Cawlin. My best friend is a lawyer AND a banker and a staunch conservative Republican.

I have no problem cooking for people who don't like certain things...if I know about it before hand. Lots of people don't like fish or seafood or have allergies to certain things. My above mentioned friend is also a vegan (how the hell that happened I'll never understand) no problem cooking that way either. It's the "I can't stand onions" or the "I hate peas" crowd that are shit out of luck, eat around them or starve.

As to the mayo thing, it is the most often mishandled item in every kitchen. Comes in big plastic tubs that get left sitting around open for hours, people dig into it with filthy knives and spoons and even bare hands when in a hurry. It gets sneezed into, eaten over, spilled into, and filled with all kinds of crap that is just scrapped off the top then the rest of it is used.

Go work in a kitchen. Then talk about food safety.

I see people in kitchens mishandlefood all the time.

For instance, they will touch raw hamburger and put it n the grill.. Then without washing their hands, they will take bread, tomatoes, etc.. Contaminate the raw ingredients.
