I thought it was enough to put my cedar plank over aluminum foil and the burners to the lowest setting… luckily, I had the temperature probe in the salmon, so I noticed the flare up right away and it came out not much darker than in the picture.
Hey !food, wanna share a kitchen disaster in the comments?
I always used to wonder how much of an idiot you have to be to start a grease fire in the kitchen. The other day I managed to preheat my pan way too much for a steak, added oil, and turned my back to grab the steak from the counter.
I now know exactly how much of an idiot you have to be to start a grease fire in the kitchen.
It happens to all of us :)
I have wondered the exact same thing. What type of oil was it? I have a habit of maxing out the heat on my frying pan for steak, but maybe I should reconsider…
I think it was grape seed, but it might have been avocado. I was pretty distracted by some other things at the time.
I’ve started keeping an infrared thermometer by the stove.
