My Wusthof chef's knife was my first relatively expensive knife, and it is still my favorite.

Would You Rather Have Good Bad Pizza, or Bad Good Pizza?

Good bad pizza because bad good pizza costs money. I went to Varasano's in Atlanta while he was still experiencing "oven issues" (which might still be ongoing; I have since moved away). The pizza was way too expensive for the quality of pie I received. Conversely, good bad pizza is satisfying in a greasy, guilty sort of way.

tampa bay area recommendations?

World of Beer is fun. It is a really small chain, and they have a great selection.

Thanks all! I really appreciate the feedback.

Charleston, SC?

My favorite experience in Charleston was Pearlz oyster bar for happy hour. The prices were great, and it was packed with locals.

Ask the Food Lab Anything, the Thanksgiving Edition

Last year I spatchcocked my turkey. I stuck my thermometer in the thigh as I would normally do had I left the bird whole. I pulled it at the right temp and let it rest while I threw my casseroles in the oven. When I went to slice my bird, the breast near where the wishbone would have been was completely raw! I was wondering what could cause this and how to avoid it. Maybe throwing some more veg under the breast to make sure that it is propped up? Or should I measure the temperature in a different place with a spatchcocked turkey?

Help French Delicacies..?

The rillettes you can just spread on bread and consume as is. Soo tasty.

As for the other two, the first is a jar of duck gizzards in fat, while the second is 4 or 5 duck legs in fat. You really prepare them in much the same way: plop the whole affair in a pan over low heat to melt the fat. You can then remove the meat and crisp them up, either in another pan or in the oven.

Whatever you do, do not throw the leftover fat away! Duck fat fried potatoes are one of the most delicious things on earth. Just cube up a few potatoes and fry them in the melted duck fat. Enjoy!

How to cook with savory jellies?

This isn't so much incorporation into a meal, but try adding some cream cheese to your toast and then topping it with the jelly. Or do the same on crackers. So this isn't exactly creative, but I can go through a whole lot of the stuff this way.

I have some extra braised short rib....

I second the short rib grilled cheese idea. Govind Armstrong's version was featured on Oprah a while ago. Just do a search for it. I made it last year, and even my short rib-ambivalent boyfriend loved it.

Definitely tomatoes since I have limited space. It also doesn't hurt that I could eat them at every meal while they are in season.

Win Tickets to FRIED at the New York Wine & Food Festival

JCT Kitchen in Atlanta. Ford Fry (I mean, how could you go wrong with that name?!) pan-fries it, which is the way that it should be done.

A tomato sandwich. Pretty simple, but I've eaten them ever since I was little.

Romantic Dinner Ideas

Oh would that I were able to find verjus. My grocery store is extremely limited.

On an unrelated note, I have been laughing all day at how ironic it is that all three of my main dish components required wine: shrimp, beurre blanc, and risotto. Oh well!

Serious Eats Amateur Wine Taste-Along Report: Vinho Verde

I love to see Vinho Verde getting more attention. I didn't know anything about it before I moved to Newark, where it is widely (and cheaply) available. While I can't wait to move home, I plan on packing a few cases of Gazela to come along with. And then snicker when I go to Total Wines where they are selling it for $7 or $8.
