Looks like the old flat top might have a faulty part. I got it fully clean, seasoned with strait canola oil (which shouldn’t burn until 425°F or even higher) and set it to 375°F.

After about 15 minutes it reached ~360°F but without adjusting the temperature k***s, the temperature kept climbing. I have a FLIR thermal diagnostic camera and at its peak it was cooking the oil up to 470-490°F.

We have two identical flat tops and I ran the other one at the same time with the same 375°F on the k**b, and it stabilized at 360-380°F while this one kept climbing.

I’m not a technician obviously but seems to me something’s up. I had the same settings on the thermal camera on both stainless steel griddles, so regardless of accuracy/calibration, the difference in temperature between them should be an accurate representation since it’s the same material for emissivity.

Gonna have to run some more tests!

Does anyone know of a good brand of leather belt to buy where they don’t stretch and get ruined after a couple months? Maybe I just need to buy a more expensive leather I’m not sure. I wear these in the kitchen all day.

This might be my last post. Just got a major 69th degree burn on the inside of my arm from attempting to clean the flat top griddle. Needless to say, I might be off work for the foreseeable future, and may lose complete use of my right arm.

On Thursday my girlfriend and I enjoyed the Gastronomic tasting menu at New Brunswick Community College!

With the help of the instructors and the direction of Chef Emannuel Charretier, the second year students delivered an awesome experience!

Cod Croquette
Pan Seared Scallop and Smoked Pine Needles
Roasted Lobster and Nasturtium Leaf Coulis
Rhubarb Espuma
Morel Mushroom Cappuccino
Foie Gras, Maple Syrup, and Banana
Squab and Jerusalem Artichoke
Asparagus, Lemon, and Hazelnut
Chocolate, Honey, and Hojichat

A couple of things I haven’t tried before such as Nasturtium, and even more I haven’t had in combination with each other!

“You have horrible knife skills”. If you don’t like me, that’s fine! But if you’re going to make fun of me, at least pick something I’m not actually good at 😂 I have very passable knife skills. Suitable for any kitchen. No I’m not the fastest, or the best. But I’m adequately proficient.
