I have cooked with both ... or maybe I should say all three - uh, all four Let me explain: I have a cast iron skillet that is at least 75 years old and has had the same seasoning on it for over 40 years. I use it often and prefer it for many things. When it comes to stainless steel, that video only covered one type of stainless cookware. He was cooking on an induction burner. That requires the bottom of the pan/pot to be magnetic. Good quality stainless (high nickel content) is not magnetic. So, an actual non-clad stainless pan will not work on the induction burner. Likewise, there is also copper bottom stainless cookware. Again, that will not work on an induction burner. The pan he was using was "clad" on the bottom, giving it a "heavy" bottom. The clad material has less nickel and can operate on the induction burner since the lower nickel content will allow it to be magnetic. Whatever that pan was clad with is what gave it the heat holding attributes, nit the pan being stainless. Cast iron is magnetic. For this test to be accurate, he should have used a gas burner and each of the three types of stainless pans as well as the cast iron pan. I have cooked in an actual stainless non-clad pan as well as copper bottom and clad stainless. I like stainless. I like it for browning and cooking ground beef as well as some other things. However, for cooking "flat meat" (non-ground) like a steak, I refer the cast iron.

I made me a fatboy dough pizza, with ground beef and cheese and bacon, it turned out good.

Chowed down on two big venison burgers and four eggs from my hens. Eatin naturally, the only way to go.

Large plate of steamed shrimp..2 hotdogs..thick sliced bacon..5 eggs ,,green tea

I tenderized the last two gristley Ribeyes I had. And fixed a four eggs omelet. The Ribeyes Came in in a four pack. I'm glad that's over. Saving a dollar isn't always good. lol Nemo, I dunno if you can have it, but I sometimes smear sour cream over my hamburger steaks. Or blue cheese when I have it. It adds a lil something something to it.

If you are finding temptations overwhelming you then you are probably underrating.

hello, finished the roasts and next up is some cut up beef. now i'll have to cook each piece. day 12 and last night I slept longer. still tired easily but am wiser about activity (has a lng-term health issue that's improving). hope to find Portland metro area carnivore tribe soon. so many plant-based believers, poor things. have to be careful who i let speak into my life. hope all are well :0

I don’t add it during cooking but after it’s done and on the plate. Like dipping lobster in butter.

Bullet proof coffee so far.

I will do this today. Never even touched a crock pot before. If I do not survive, you can have all my stuff.

Facebook has always been a thief. They have never really done anything original. It started as a MySpace clone. Google+ came along, and offer Circles. Facebook steals and adds "Friends Lists". Google+ starts Communities. Facebook steals and starts "Facebook Groups". Google+ offers Video Conferencing. Facebook adds video conferencing to Messenger. Facebook tries to steal video from YouTube. Snapchat introduces Stories. Facebook steals and adds "Reels" to Instagram. TikTok becomes a thing. Facebook modifies "Reels" to function the same and adds it to Facebook too. Musk buys Twitter. Facebook starts Threads, basically a Twitter/X clone. Musk champtions free speech on X. And now Zuckerberg is promising free speech on Facebook.

Yesterday was 6 soft boiled eggs and hot link venison sausage. Today venison burger patties and venison steaks.

I detect a hint of sarcasm sir.

Screw these turncoat. He needs to go live with Trudeau. Too much drama crap on FB for me to come back.

Remember men's hormones are easier to balance than female. Make sure you do a FULL vitamin, panel also. There's @realfoodcures @KetoKamp On YouTube that have alot of helpful insight as well as @Drberg.

We're sharing the love, lol. The last couple years were mild. But January 2025 has been brutal to us so far up here in Ohio, and we're only 10 days in.

When I cut out dairy, I will have loose stools. The cheese helps keep things the consistency I desire. I'm not sure why. The rule of thumb is to add more fat to loosen things up, and to back off the fat to stiffen things up. While that seems to be true of excess butter or ghee, cheese is a little bit of a savior for me.

Actually was a supervisor and we reworked the butter, dumping into heated tank, recirculating the hot melted butter to melt added butter, pumper about 1 foot off the bottom because the bottom contained paper and water that would go to waste. Its pretty easy to rework and, in todays world if it could not be reworked it would be hazardous waste that they do not want dumped into the ground. So all the pallets of butter should go back to facility, too much money to not rework it.

I really like this way of eating! I used to eat all day long. Now two or maybe three times a day and it's so delicious and satisfying! Today was chuck roast at 11:30 am. Then at around 5:30 pm burger stuffed with some goat cheese followed by two eggs cooked in chuck roast fat.

I can remember eating cheese by the bucket, or at least it seemed that way. Now, not near as much, but on occasion. Once or twice a week I will brown sausage in a pan, toss in three or four eggs and then add a few chunks of block cheese. Back when I ate lasagna, I wanted the top layer of cheese to be as thick as the lasagna itself. Big fan. The grill cheese sandwiches were as much cheese as bread. Part of the recipe that got me to well over 300lbs. Scott

I just watched the video. I've never heard of the casomorphine. Extremely interesting I took a few screenshots of the lists. So far I'm enjoying this forum. I've learned a few new things.

I started January 1st on the BBBE diet and so far, so good. I was 209 when I started and I had my annual physical today and I was 205. I told my doctor about my diet and she said I shouldn’t do it longer than 2 months. She wants me back for cholesterol bloodwork in 3 months. I’m doing it for 90 days, or more than likely longer. I’m expecting my numbers to be good, except for LDL which is already high and I’m on a statin.

I've had a power outage and when your water heater is electric, this is a blessing. You can heat up the kitchen, by boiling water, have hot water, and yes, still cook. And, it just cooks better.

Welcome Ronnie. Typical to get easily dehydrated in the beginning. You are no longer eating carbs or fiber so there is less in your body holding onto water so you are flushing more out of your this is also why many experience leg cramps because in flushing our water we are also flushing out electrolytes. You may need to start taking a supplement such as LMNT or KetoChow. After a time as I did you may find that simply upping your salt intake may be enough. Looks good but make sure you are getting plenty of fat. A good starting point is to get 70% or your calories from fat and 30% from protein. This goes back to my statement about electrolytes. Not to worry, this is normal. You are used to eating things, vegetables, fiber and highly processed foods that don’t digest in your body so your body is constantly excreting them through your bowels. We you eat fat and meat, the most nutritious food you can eat, the majority of it is being used and absorbed by your body so naturally there won’t be much left to expel. Many people experience diarrhea for two to four weeks in the beginning as their gut biome adjusts to just digesting meats and fats, I know I did but after that break in period i becomes more normal. I just because you don’t have the urge to “go” doesn’t necessarily mean you’re constipated. True constipation is when you you have the strong urge to go but it’s stuck and won’t come out. Not having an urge just means there’s nothing there. If you do encounter constipation which I did for quite some time you can take a magnesium citrate supplement or use an herbal laxative tea but in time that should straighten itself out as well. I took me a year for my body to fully adjust to eating carnivore but the health benefits were definitely worth waiting it out. I’ll add that I don’t have a gall bladder so that may be why I struggled so much in the beginning. I’m normal now and for me as a carnivore that means having a bowel movement about once a week, sometimes twice and I’ve been known to go ten days. The general rule of thumb is pay attention to your fat intake. Harder stools, eat more fat. Looser stools eat less fat.

I have an all clad ss which I use cooking for wife when my castiron is busy. REAL ss pans are great, consistent for cooking fast, castiron I crank the burner to med high 450f and sear it then finish it in oven about 250f for 25-30 minutes for med rare but more Bleu.

Yesterday it was grilled venison tenderloin, backstrap and German sausage.

I have never seen anyone ever utter these words before. Thank you for that lol.

oh damn gotta get a green card in order to win the price? fine... imma find a wife real quick.

No doubts. I think we are all different to a degree and a part of the problems with our medical system in general is the cookie cutter approach. True story. My mother-in-law didn't wear glasses much more than readers. She went to the doctor way back when and her glucose was high. She was immediately put on medicine to control her glucose. Her glucose remained low to very low for 20+ years of her latter life. When she needed glasses later in life my wife was going over her prescriptions and the optometrist as well as the ophthalmologist assured my wife by checking the eyes my mother-in-law did not have glucose issue and showed no signs of ever being diabetic. They consulted with a new doctor and weaned her off the medicine. She never had issue with the weaning or being off the medicine as her glucose stayed low to sometimes very low. Odds are she ate something before the blood test that day, her glucose spiked as normal and that was the number that was caught. The cookie cutter approach is to prescribe medicine. And to a point, I get it. The pills are prescribed because they work but seldom are pills the temporary solution while searching for the more permanent solution. In my mother-in-law's case she took medicine to unnecessarily control her blood glucose for 20+ years. Later, she passed with Dementia and Alzheimer's. I'm not a doctor, nor a researcher, but I want to think one played a significant role in the other. So, yes. Me on milk with my auto-immune disease is probably different than you on milk with your autoimmune disease. Hopefully the two us can work thru the issues and let the carnivore approach help us get to a better place.

fellas, lately i tried to make mixes of my hated dry 80/20 ground beef to make a tastier burgers. Adding minced lard was already a great improvment, but i would have never expected how great they turned out by adding minced liver. Oh gosh, those were good burgers.

Smoked Caribbean lobster and smoked venison burgers.

Big plate of thick sliced Bacon...ground beef patties..left over Ham and Cabbage..green tea..

I used pork rind panko. Get you some Mac’s plain pork rinds and run them through a food processor until they are just crumbs. Then use it just like you would corn meal. Dip the catfish in an egg wash and roll it in the panko. I like to let it sit in the fridge for about 15 minutes to a half hour before I deep fry as it helps the breading to stay on better. I use tallow for my fry oil but bacon grease or lard would work well too.

Yep, i would love to hear other people opinions about this topic cause i also never had problems with anxiety and i'm currently experiencing a feeling of imminent doom and constant anxiety, but nothing as bad as the eczema i got. I didn't use dairy in first place and my next try will be to avoid also egg yolks and no just the white. that's all i can think about, any other ideas?

Welcome. I tend to steer clear of the heart related questions and leave it to people with actual experience. The first weeks and even months can be a constant adjustment as your body 'heals'. I think everyone has to do some experimenting to see what works for them as an individual. Carnivore is as much about what you are not eating as what you are eating. It is more of an elimination process. I would think it is a part of the adjustment. Best of luck, and again, welcome. Scott

Scott you have reached what I would call nirvana of carnivore. The things that you used to love no longer appeal to you. That’s called freedom.

It is funny that how that works. A person can be standing in front of you with a Big Mac, super-sized fries and a soft drink then tell you how Carnivore is not healthy. " If I say I only eat meat, salt and water". in immediately transforms everyone into a doctor. Scott

I went to the local butcher the other night and got me some grass fed NY Strips. I was hoping to get some liver but they were actually sold out. But I did get something unique - Deer bratwursts that have a touch of jalapeno and cherries in them. So they have a couple carbs per link as a result but the combination sounded very intriguing. I will be trying them tomorrow.

Venison Sumer sausage and cheese omelette.

Hopefully with blessings of OP lol

If you want to put something in your burger meat, you can crumble a bit of pork rinds. Welcome to the club and good luck.

Welcome. I too had to look up rusk as well. LOL I use hamburger form the grocery store about half the time and the other half I make it myself. If the chuck meats are on sale or any meat at a good deal I try to stock up. From there I buy some beef fat and grind my own, usually about 60/40 meat to fat. occasionally I will grind up bacon with it for a little twist. Good luck and post your successes. Great support group here. Scott

As a Dutch person, it's my national duty to own one and it's great. It was a little pricey but it's something that lasts forever.

I guess I am lucky on that one too. I don't have any allergies. An allergy to pork would be life altering. The lack of sausage would be brutal. Plus pork chops. Plus ham. Plus shoulders and butts. Plus whole hogs. There would be an empty spot to fill. If you have those allergies, thoughts and prayers. Scott

Obviously, I'll keep on with the Carnivore diet, that is my main resolution. Another, going for US citizenship.

My wife made a dish in the crock pot that had chicken broth, melted cream cheese, shredded chicken, and more. It was a bit thick, almost like a dip or spread. We put it in a bowl with some shredded cheese and I ate it with pork rinds. It was pretty delicious and still carnivore, save for whatever seasonings she used.

I didn't mean to take your post off topic. My wife just started about 10 days ago. She dropped 6lbs the first week and her first week went really well. The start of the 2nd week has been filled with cravings. She says it feels weird because it is not 'I'm hungry and I and craving this or that. It is more like I am just thinking about what I would have been eating around this time of the day". The more I read other people's experiences I think I have been a bit lucky with cravings. Scott

When I have a deer processed I’ll get some German sausage made with jalapeño and cheese. Good stuff.

"body found floating by the docks?" yes it is! I also have 9 fingers as well, but its my fav book series.

Yep. These were on lump coal. Last week on wood and the week before on the Traegar pellet grill. Quick and easy. It is like my new 'go to'. Scott
