Equipment

  • - Dutch Oven: A heavy-duty oven-safe pot with a tight-fitting lid, ideal for slow cooking and braising meats like Beer Braised Beef.

  • - Slow Cooker: Perfect for recipes that require long cooking times in moist conditions.

  • - Roasting Pan: Large enough for braising, suitable with a lid on to cook dishes like Beer Braised Beef and Onions.

  • - Wok: Useful for stir-frying or sautéing vegetables before the main braising process.

  • - Meat Thermometer: Ensures meat is cooked to desired doneness during braising without overcooking.

  • - Heavy-Duty Aluminum Foil: Used for tenting dishes while braising to lock in moisture and flavor.
