I noticed that the website is slower to react than before, (last few days VS last week) I was tempted to click the LIKE button or POST REPLY button a second time, and then finally I would see the page load up correctly. BYC is getting a workout with many peeps being on it at same time.

I got a workout eating my lunch just now.
Baked pork chops with baked potato wedges. Chop looks dark not due to being burned, but the generous BBQ sauce that dried on it. It permeated the meat well as can be seen on piece broken off. The potatoes were dusted with seasonings including paprika. Can be seen where they overlapped and missed the paprika. All was slow baked at moderate heat and turned out

Does anybody make their own fries or hashbrowns??? I'd like to start, but am looking for pointers.

I started a batch of chili yesterday in the slow cooker. The house smells AMAZING!!! Will snap a pic for you later Connie.

Whenever we do potato wedges, they are always done in oven or on Outdoor Grill. We do not have a deep fryer. I know it is possible to just use a regular pot with oil in it and stove top. That would possibly cause a smokeout inside the house, more than I would like to deal with. I do like to make potato pancakes. When I did in kitchen I smoked the whole house. Now I do it on side burner of grill. (outdoors) The aroma and smoke just drives the neighbors HUNGRY.

There is an establishment near me that serves only hot dogs, fries and tamales. Also soda drinks. There is always a line waiting, at least 20 or more when I pass by. If I do stop in , I'm never there more than 10 minutes. Things move there at production speed. I mainly like their fries. They are freshly peeled and fried. There is a crew at it continuously. What you are eating was a whole potato 20 minutes before you arrived. Everything can be seen from where you are waiting for your food. The frying goes thru a series of different fryers, as I see the baskets being rotated to the next fryer. There are multiple fryers there also for the volume of their needs. The exhaust fans overhead are running full bore.
I'm not sure if they do their frying this way, but did read at one time about an alternate way to do fries. First step was to dip fries into boiling water for short. (not sure of time, maybe a minute or two) Drain and then finish in oil. You would need to be careful to drain well as putting water soaked potatoes could cause some spatter.

Hash browns, we just buy frozen bags and use quantity as needed. I know that potatoes start to change color quickly when shredded, or processed in blender, when I set out to make potato pancakes. (I'm getting hungry for some now)
Not sure how the frozen Hash Browns are processed, but they are blond, not purple.

You are making chili now. You are probably wise not to include your location in your profile. I would be knocking on your front door trying to invite self for dinner,,,,,,
