I prefer to use field corn rather than sweet corn for corn on the cob (either baked or grilled). And get it done enough that there are little scorch marks where it touched the grill.

No, over easy is when you still have slimy-ness in the whites, over-medium is when the whites are cooked but the yolk's liquidity is maintained.

Nah, when you don't flip them it's sunny side up and has runny whites.

Over-easy is cooked whites, all runny yolk.

Over-medium is more/half cooked yolk.

Over-hard is fully cooked yolk.

I like my eggs over medium (half-cooked yolk, still slightly runny); but very few restaurant cooks can get it right. Therefore, when I eat out, I order one over well & one over medium; and between the two it usually works out okay.

I never said anything about flipping. You can flip the egg, cook it on its other side for a few seconds and still have it somewhat slimy. Hence, over-easy. Sunny side up is disgustingly slimy

Crack them into a muffin pan(be careful to not break the yolk). Cover with foil. Bake in oven at 335 for about 20 minutes.
No more peeling eggs.

If you order over-easy and you get runny white, then it wasn't done enough.

The "over" part = flipped, which means the white is done. The second part, easy, medium or hard is a description of how much the yolk is done.

:noidea:

Almost any vegetable, roasted over any other way of cooking them


I'm not so sure...

potatoes are great in many versions other than roasted

au gratin

loaded twice baked

fried mixed in with fried okra

boiled baby potatoes in butter

On the grill or fried is the best way to cook

Crockpots are the worst

Grilled makes them dry and the juiced squirt out

Love mashed potatoes when I’m out. Not as good at home

Grilled Steak.

Personally think any other method is a waste of a good steak. Not that they don't taste good, just that it tastes better grilled at a much higher heat.
Have you tried to cook steak sous vide and then finish on the grill just for the char? I bought a Anova sous vide cooker on the cheap to give it a try, best steaks and chicken I have ever made.

The best way to have eggs is to let them hatch, wait 14 weeks, dress them and fire up the grill and BBQ the hell outta it.

Never tried it, but hear the same things about it often.
