I prefer cast iron to nonstick, once probably seasoned they’re awesome at holding heat and don’t stick they need to be correctly cleaned though ie no soap…the one I used above is probably too large for your stove it’s oblong and I use it on a conventional gas hob over 2 burners (a hot cooking end and a cooler holding end) Amazon have plenty of cast iron pans and skillets some with handles which might suit your use case

I’m probably more insane when it comes to cast iron than I am with headphones. I own just about all the boutique-ZMF equivalent pans, skillets, griddles, and carbon steel I can find and I’d only normally ever consider nonstick for an egg pan. This is 100% intended for the super sticky marinades and sauces KBBQ is known for without sticking and burning. Also reduces smoke too somehow.

Would guess its the sugar that gets burnt. Korean BBQ is delighful, get the party started with that kim chee soup.

Got to put the grill through the paces tonight. I completely overdid it and didn’t even cook half the meat I prepared, but it was a fun process and really good

Thanks man. New phone did a forced perspective thing I didn’t realize because it recognized food, but my fingers were covered with meat and sauce almost immediately after the pics were taken

Looking like a professional kitchen with those food pans all stuffed with yummy toppings. At a minimum you knocked it out of the park on presentation! I suspect it tasted as good as it looks

Thanks, but it’s just a nice cutting board that happens to hold those kitchen trays. I usually have an ipad or cookbook propped up in the upper area of the cutting board for the recipe I’m following. It’s a fun meal to make because you can start the prep days in advance. I overdid it here because I was testing home recipes vs. premade store recipes. Unfortunately the made from scratch versions won in every case. I think I’ll reduce my homemade pickles from 4 to 1-2, but that and the ssam sauce was my favorite part of the entire process
I almost had a steak on there. However, my burner disintegrated! 
Spent several hours shopping online. I am liking a company called Huntington out of the US. American made and a pretty price for some simple models. Carried up here by Home Hardware.
I don’t like to go more than a week or two (year round), without grilling something. I have to get on this quickly.

That’s me. In fact, I tend to BBQ less in the high heat, and way way more in February

I need to get me one of them cutting boards, have a link on where to buy? I could eat pickled stuff all day, but have never attempted to do it on my own in earnest. Lazily throw some onion and cucumber in some red wine vinegar for a few hours and call it good. I’d like to experiment a bit more on that front. Homemade recipes are almost always better I find, but time can be killer right? Happy it all seemed to work out for you👍

So, if you only cook 1-2 times per week, in non-Covid scenarios, I can’t recommend this cutting board. I do R&D for a food company, and I was able to write it off, but I’d be cooking at home 5 days a week minimum, so I wanted this regardless:
It’s pretty much the Susvara of cutting boards, but now that I own it I would have gone with either the Mono or Basic version. I loved the idea of the prep containers on all 4 sides, but unless your island is the exact same dimensions, you’re only using 3 of the sides at most. Great design though, and the prep containers are restaurant standard, so you can buy the cheapest version you can find and be good with it. My standard setup is uncut veggies in a bin around my lower waist level, waste/compost to the right of that. I line up prepped vegs on the left, seasoning up top, and a tablet, cell phone, or recipe book if needed with the angle joint in the upper right if using

I’ve made a bunch of pickles in my life, but recently this is the version I’ve based things off of. Sometimes sweeter, usually spicier, but a good starting point and perfectly fine to stay right here. A mandoline would be best, but if you have a sharp knife, just take a little more time to slice as thinly as you can
Edit:
I use a recipe similar to this for American bread & butter style pickles which I make more than anything. I usually use a serrano pepper for a little more kick than a bell pepper would give, but the recipe as written is pretty solid:

That is one slick cutting board! The basic and even the mono are reasonably priced for what they offer. 25% off on order over 200 right now too in the US store. The Phoenix I would need more space and to save a bit to justify, but these are all wife approved. We have actually been needing a new wood board so good timing. I worked in kitchens thought college and my mid 20’s so the organizational aspects that board system offers are awesome. Thanks for the links for the recipes too, definitely going to try out the Korean ones in the next few weeks.

I often want to duck when I link the price to someone, so I’m glad you see the justification. 100% not for everyone, almost meant for a small deli even, but for those who do bulk prep, recipe testing, or do run a deli, the long term benefit repays itself. I still don’t know how it happened, but I ordered at 10 pm on a Sunday in NJ and it was delivered from Germany at 2 pm the next day
Yeah I’m seeing options on Amazon for about 1/3 the prIce, but will those last as long? Is the craftsmanship on par 
? If I can afford it I’ll always choose quality, something that is going to last years. The basic is completely reasonable in price, especially when I consider how much I spend on audio equipment and music in general.
That’s some crazy fast shipping! Wonder if they have warehouse in the NYC area or something?
So, all anecdotally, and what I’ve consistently read in cookbooks, is John Boos Boos Blocks, and the Frankfurter-Bretts are the best of the best. I may have had bad luck, but I treat my cutting boards very well and my Boos walnut board split on me. I went with the standard bamboo for the Frankfurter, and bamboo is usually a little easier, but it has been a dream so far in the year I’ve owned it
And no, I would have thought so too. I tracked it from Germany to NY to my house in NJ in one day during the height of the pandemic. They must have preferred customs clearance
You can also 100% buy a $5 bamboo cutting board and as many $1 dollar ramekins as you need for your food prep, but people who think that way stop by this forum and keep on moving
