I tend to do this post at this time of year. Select standing rib roast
is $5.98/pound this year. This is just a heads up until you do better.
I can remember when it was a whole lot cheaper, but still...

I was planning on going tomorrow to check if there were any left.
Thanks for the heads up.

Did you also notice that Winco had Hormel In the Bag Pork Butts for
sale at $.98/pound? That's a really good price for me in my area.
Sale good through 12/26 (as is the price on the prime rib roasts)
I got a beautiful prime rib roast.

No, I didn't. I was zeroed in on the Christmas main course. It sounds
like you may be making posole?

I will be making posole sometime in the next month or so. I just made
it a couple of weeks ago. I've always made Manhattan Clam Chowder for
Christmas Eve. I only recently found out that posole was a
traditional Christmas Eve dinner with Mexicans.
I have plenty of other uses for pork butt. Chili Verde, pulled pork,
pork with saurkraut, etc. Grind it for use with meat loaf, etc.

Saw the name Winco and had to chime in. I don't have much money and am not a connoisseur of pottery and so forth. I bought a few aluminum pieces of cook ware at a place in town called ChefSmart. The items I bought are from Winco. They were very inexpensive. I have no complaints, but want to ask you if it's normal every time I dry out the pots to get that odd colored stain on the paper towels? I guess it's from the aluminum. It's a light tannish color, can't describe it any other way. It was in the large fry pan that I burned the Italian sausage I mentioned in another post. I am not blaming the pan, it was my fault. But do these aluminum pans require lower heat, or what? Also, are they safe in the oven, and if so, to what temperature. I usually heat them after cleaning and throw in a little oil and swirl it around to coat them. But what I want most to know is what that coloring is, and if it's normal, and also if the fry pan can be placed in the oven, and to what temperature max. Thanks.

Ya know...the whole "act" is pretty untrustworthy after you posted about
plastic surgery and killing a marine off.

Couple that with your now reneged on claim that you died and were near
necrotic before being revived and ...well...

Head case.

Just sayin'.

I honestly have no idea. The Winco that I'm talking about is a grocery
store chain. If they sell manufactured goods, this is the first I've
heard of it.

It's a troll that lives at Pottery Barn. No Winco's in my area but
sounds like great prices on rib roast!

Alright, alright - cookware, whatever. You know what I mean.

I didn't know that. I bought the pots and pans at a place called ChefSmart.. The name of the cookware is Winco. It's cheap stuff. Then again, I'm a cheap guy. Not really, just can't afford everything I want. Thanks, I was not aware of the Winco grocery chain, although now that you mention it, it does sound familiar.

No big deal, just sending along this link to verify there is a Winco that sells manufactured goods. Not saying it's good or bad, don't really know, that's why I posted to begin with, because what I bought is aluminum and very inexpensive and after I use it and clean it, when I wipe it with paper towels an odd coloring comes off. As I said, all the stuff I bought is aluminum. Thanks to all for your responses.

https://www.google.com/search?source....0.7Bxx6GEHs9w

That's a pretty long link. Maybe it won't work. But if you google "Winco pots and pans", it will take you to one of their sites. Only trying to show that there is such a place with such a name, not judging it one way or another....................

I like to use fry pans in the oven so an all metal handle is important to me. It should be of a rolled sheet metal construction so you can grab it with a pot holder easily. I've used my wok in the oven too. For that I have to unscrew the wooden handle. As an added bonus, pans with a metal handle are typically better constructed.

I have several Woll pans. The handles just clip off.

That's a very snappy idea! I have to make do with what I have. When I make a pizza, I use a Mexican tortilla grill on the floor of the oven. When the bottom is done, the pan is lifted by slipping a knife through the handle and under the grill. It's exciting because the knife could break or the grill could slip off the knife. I like to add a little excitement when I'm cooking.

Is this what you're using:

Or the traditional earthen wa

https://www.amazon.com/Ancient-Cookw...ds=comal&psc=1


Either works, but allow me to recommend this to you:

https://www.bedbathandbeyond.com/sto...%20pizza%20pan

Wilton® Advance Select Premium Nonstick„¢ 14-Inch Pizza Crisper in Gunmetal
For an exceptional baking experience use the Wilton Advance Select
Nonstick Pizza Crisper. An infused, nonstick coating and steel design
allows for even heat distribution and clean food release. Make your
favorite baked goods quickly and hassle-free.

10.99


It's light, nonstick for easy cleanup, the air holes make for a super
crispy bottom, and the price is insane!

Admittedly less drama in and out of the oven though...

Well, I see that you did finally fix that oven that was broken
forever.
