I don’t have trouble most of the time. I’ve gotten a couple thin little cuts
many years ago.
I can do it on a manual or electric Can opener.
I usually take it all out of the can and put it into a bowl or container so I
don’t touch those sharp edges and get cut.
I like to slice it up all at once
That sounds like it would be well worth the try.
It does say to cook 3 to 5 hours. I would think it would be safe to do it
without pre-browning it.

I imagine that smelled awful.
I did something dumb right after I got my air fryer. Being I am in my late
60’s now, I can’t even imagine I did this.
I was here by myself in the house and decided to put some frozen fries in the
air fryer, and then said oh well, I’ll have a frozen burger too.
Oh, wow, that must have smelled awful. Glad we have microwaves for melting
butter and chocolate and stuff.

Oh wow! Thank God you did not set the house on fire!
I bet that scared your Dad! But now it seems like it started out to be kind of
fun.
Too bad it didn’t end up that way. Wonder if the burgers burned or if it was a
little of the grease that dripped onto the burner.

I’ll tell you about one I would like to find.
Some time around the early 1990’s I think it was, a gentleman came to my house
and said he was a retired water man and that he remembered seeing me when he
came to read the water meter. He said he and his wife were moving and that his
sister had

Hi Lisa,
Thank you so much for this valuable information. I forgot, we are supposed to
say thanks and so-called useless things like that, but I don’t write to this
group very much because I’m not new to the kitchen. But especially in these
times, I think it’s wonderful when people let others
Hi All,
That does sound wonderful, but right now I don’t have any packs of onion soup
mix. I do have raw beans, I am not sure what kind, they could be kidney beans
or whatever. I do have raw onions, so I put a couple of them into my crockpot
right at the beginning of cooking so they have
When I copied down the recipe, I took out the slash and wrote the word or in

This NVDA program does not say H T H.

Hi Ron,
Dale Campbell shared a tip that I have tried with the George Foreman Grill.
