Today I am having my brand new gas stove hooked up. :yahoo:

I'm a pretty adventurous cook, and have a stocked pantry, so am willing to try anything, just as long as it doesn't take me four hours to get the meal on the table.

What shall I cook for my inaguration dinner on my new prized toy?

Grilled cheese with tomato and mayonnaise. :yay:

:lol:

I think you should blacken meat of some form and make a pan sauce. That, to me, is the ultimate reason one would have a gas stove and proper hood vent.

Durrrr Thanksgiving Dinner. You really wanna test that ####er out!!! Turkey, mashed taters, green beans, gravy, fresh cranberry chutney, & rolls :smile:

:superjealous:

:lol:

That, to me, is the ultimate reason one would have a gas stove and proper hood vent.I may do this, although I did grill a marinated London broil on my electric cook-top last night for dinner (used a smokin' hot LeCrueset ridged grill pan).

:lightbulb: Maybe I'll make some bone-in pork chops with a balsamic-dijon sauce, grilled asparagus, and some oh-rotten potatoes. :drool:

What time is dinner?

Frozen pizza! :smile:

:love:

The prior homeowners must have only cooked frozen pizzas, because that is why I had a crappy kitchen with a horrible layout. Those folks didn't know good appliances and a good design if it had knockem them in the head.

:lol:

It must have been torture for you to have that stove in storage all this time. Have fun cooking, make a big mess for Bob to clean up! :yahoo:

Oh thank god.... :whew:

Pan fried scallops. :yum:

:howdy:I was going to suggest pork chops! Pork chops with onions and gravy and Liver & Onions are on my menu for tonight. Hubby loves liver & onions, but he and my son are the only two who eat them, so daughter and I will have the chops! Have fun with your new toy!!!

Oh thank god.... :whew::cannedchicken: :high5:


:roflmao:


I was in the grocery store when you texed that picture, and I was *this* close to buying some for you as a joke. :lol:

Pan fried scallops. :yum:

Ooh, I think I'll make that tonight for dinner! With a preserved lemon and butter pan sauce.

Not that I have a fancy dancy gas stove and proper hood vent or anything... :frown:

I was looking over the canned tuna and saw the "chicken". :lol: And man! There was a lot of it - two brands of canned tuna and 70,000 brands of canned chicken gristle. I was flabbergasted.

the beauty is, not waiting for the burner to heat up, no matter what you cook




:FlameON:

Tofurky with a roasted basil tomato puree...


:barf:

We are having a fig, prosciutto, mozzeralla cheese homemade pizza topped with arugula and fresh shaved Parmesan cheese tonight, and I ain't got no fancy oven. :frown: I bet it would taste better baked in a fancy oven. :bawl:

BTW, serous question, is your whole house gas or did you have lines run to the kitchen? I've told the giant several times I want to "upgrade" to a gas oven but we don't have gas anywhere else in the house.

Not that I have a fancy dancy gas stove and proper hood vent or anything... :frown:But I can't do it tonight. Already have sausage thawed and potato salad made. Tomorrow night and Giant always has fresh scallops.

I just posted about this last week too! You can simply have one line run to your home for the gas stove. I am looking into it :-)

Nice. :yay:

I say you gotta make a risotto, something where there's a lot of stirring, pan shaking, lotsa noise that says "HEY, I'M COOKING WITH MY NEW STOVE".

:lol:

Oh thank god.... :whew:
I prefer my pork chops boneless.

Sure I miss all the exciting conversations while I'm gone. :kickingrocks:

Let me know what you information you discover please. :kiss:

This past January, we had a gas fireplace installed to offset a hellacious electric bill :bawl: , and to provide a "back-up" heat source. Today they are enhancing that gas line to add on this new gas range, as well as a tankless water heater, and also a future change-out to a gas clothes dryer.

We used Taylor Gas. :yay: :yay:

tankless water heater

I LOVE mine! Hooked that bad boy up to the generator during the hurricane and had instant hot water for my shower. :cool:

I can't wait to use mine. We have this ginormous jacuzzi tub that I've been in twice since we've been in the house, because by the time it's part-way filled, I've gone through the ordinary hot water heater.

Yeah, I always thought I wanted a ginormous jacuzzi tub until I started staying at resorts that have them. Once I realized how much water to took to fill it each time I don't think I'd use it very often just in my personal home. I even feel guilty using up that much water each time when I do use the tubs at the resorts...:lol:

I prefer my pork chops boneless.

oh that's just..wrong.

I'll bet if you check her kitchen cabinets, she has a secret stash of canned chicken, too. UFB.

Hot dogs on a stick!

Ha! I buy boneless, skinless chicken breast. So there!She probably puts ketchup on it too. :lol:

Of course... you don't? :eyebrow:

Did Taylor Gas have the water heater or did you have to buy somewhere else?

How much? (If you don't mind sharing?)

I'll have you know that dinner was a rousing success. Nothing terribly adventuresome, but it was still delicious. Steak, baked potato, fresh asparagus, grilled onions and mushrooms. :drool:

Sounds delish!!

Taylor does sell and install them but we bought this elsewhere. We went big, 12 gallons of hot water a minute for as long as you have gas.

I've seen them for as little as $500 ours was considerably.more.
