Red’s Rib Shack in Maryville, IL has great snoots, ribs, pulled pork, chicken. And I’ve never found a bristle (pig whisker) in one of their snoots, something that is all to common at other joints around town...

! Sorry—I just bristle at the “good-for-you, bad-for-you” gustatory notions. Food is like sex: There is good food, and there is bad food. There is no such thing as “safe” food, or “safe”...

-413-443-3546 CMB-U 16" brush w/bristles

, and it turns out it is the best thing I’ve found to clean graters: It sort of looks like this, but doesn’t have a handle – sort of a tight horse shoe shape of bristles:...

Yes: narrow wire brush. I found the perfect one in the Walmart hardware department: it looks exactly like a toothbrush, with brass bristles. It has held up for years as a single-use tool just for cleaning the grill fry pan. The...

Okay, just bought myself a 11" round cast iron grill pan. I’ve been using it very successfully. I bought a toothbrush-size brass bristle brush to clean any stuck on areas. Here’s my question: It has always bothered me...

I don’t have a chinois (the conical shape, right?) but my fine mesh strainers clean fairly well with a soak followed by a scrubbing inside and out with a soapy fine bristle brush. The chinois might require a specially...

is no fun. So this time, I reached for a silicone pastry brush. It was a christmas gift, I had not used it before because I thought "This can’t possibly work as well as my bristled brushes..." Still for this application I...

bristle at the word iceberg. Other than the nice bakers, the sides are not much. & they understand martinis. Altho the long-time bartender has disappeared, the new guys also know their stuff. & a bonus — when you’re...

-frou “bbq grill brushes” and go to your local hardware store, go to the paint department, and get a heavy duty paint scraper. Long wooden handle, strong durable metal bristles, even a flat scraping side — total...

Agreed – as a fan of German food, I bristle every time some poor soul posts on this board looking for German restaurants and somebody recommends Jacob Wirth’s. But I quite enjoyed an assortment of appetizers we...

Although I thought I had let it dry thoroughly after washing, some mold has formed in the bottom half of my stove top espresso maker. I’ve tried everything I can think of (including vigorous scrubbing with hard bristled...

Sundays — absolutely. And you are quite likely in Bavaria to see plenty of traditional dress (ie. lederhosen, drindls, and boar bristles on hats) on Sunday. We have memories of quite the show at the Tegernsee monastery...

All griddles are tough to clean, and the LC does not allegedly require seasoning. What you need to do is get a stiff brush, not rough wire but stiff bristled, and let the pan sit with some hot soapy water for a little while...
