Eric Stonestreet Tries to Keep Up With a Professional Chef | Back-to-Back Chef | Bon Appétit

@alphant1 ​ @alphant1 I think you're misinformed into how sexuality works, it's not something you can be influenced into being and nor is it something you can choose to be, the representation will not influence anyone to be gay, but rather help those that are gay feel included and represented. plus some people find gay characters appealing so it's a win-win. in my book :)

[@davidfuller581]

@cphginger Breville stuff is expensive - it's good quality, but it's not cheap at all. Their countertop pizza oven is $750.

[@GeorgeSemel]

Well 1500 dollars for a countertop burner, it's no different than If I was to have Wilson Combat trick out a Glock 19 for me, or One of Ernest Langdon's Berretta 92 or PX-4 compacts. if it's something you want well then buy it and don't give rats damn on what others may or may not think or say about it. I just looked it up on Amazon$1409.13 out the door with tax ( I am in CT 6.35%) and shipping. Not terrible, not cheap either. 1400 dollars is only about 2550 rounds of 9mm if you like to shoot you can go thru that in a couple of months or sooner if you complete in some of the target matches. I expect something like this burner would last for years. And think of cooking that fish!

[@gabelstapler19]

@cphginger That's actually on "sale", they cost $1800 when they first came out... It's a restaurant grade induction burner with a couple feedback sensors (one in the burner surface, another as an optional probe you can put in liquids) that you can set to any temperature, down to 1 degree F resolution and hold there indefinitely. It is a cool piece of equipment, just beyond the scope of most home cooks. Search for: Breville Polyscience Control Freak Induction to find out more.

[@MrSteelermania]

I mean our 36" Wolf stove cost $13,000 so a $1,500 burner is not outrageous these days

While I'm sure Eric can afford it, to clarify, the Breville Polyscience Control Freak Induction counter top burner is $1500.

It blew me away how much it costs. At that price you could get a whole induction rangetop... However Brevile stuff is pretty nice though so I'm sure it is the best in class for stand alone induction top burners.
