World MOINK Ball Day MONSTER Creation - MOINK Timpano!
We had a great World MOINK Ball Day with a large group of family and friends. I decided to do something a bit over the top for this Holiest of Holidays, so after cooking 60 MOINKS and putting out 30 for appetizers, I made the world's first grill-cooked MOINK Ball Timpano. Some of you may have seen this as the showcase dish on the movie Big Night. Timpano is a handmade Italian pastry that is filled with over a dozen Italian ingredients in layers. My version was made in a giant eight quart vessel and had a final cooked weight of 16 pounds. It took two days to make. After cooking, to get it out of the pan without a tragedy, I had to quickly flip all 40 lbs of pan, Timpano, and cutting board in one fluid motion. I was sweating bullets but it worked.
It was a huge hit with the crowd and half of the beast with sides fed everyone. We served it with a spinach salad and grilled lamb chops. I had the chops for a diabetic and a low-carb diet guest but they both broke down and ate huge slices anyways. The Timpano included: 1 gallon of ragu made with smoked sweet Italian sausage and smoked veal 2.5 lbs. of rigatoni 7 hard boiled eggs 4 pounds of cheese including mozzarella, fontina, provolone, pecorino romano, fresh made ricotta 6 cups of sauteed spinach 5 kinds of plumwood smoked meats including MOINK Balls, sweet Italian sausage, genoa salami, hard italian sausage, and veal scallopini 4 beaten eggs Making the Ragu: Ingredient Lineup: Rolling out pastry to 32" diameter!! - MOINK Ball for scale: Laying down over 25 layers of ingredients: Put on the grill indirect at 350 for 1 hour 40 minutes: Rested it an hour and then flipped it while hiding from guests so nobody would see 16 pounds of food slide onto the floor: Serving the first slices: On the plate: Thanks for sharing in my First Annual MOINK Ball Timpano cook.

What do you not understand about 'cannot be done on the grill'? That thing is amazing, I have made timpano, but, nothing like that.
Also, is that a Kramer knife?

DOES_NOT_COMPUTE.
That is a Kramer but one of the "cheaper" handmade commercial ones - not an original from his hand. I have a few in my kit from both the European and Japanese commercial collections. There's a long story here but to make it short, I had an opportunity to get on Kramer's list years ago to have 3 knives fabricated but it was a lot of money for me at the time and a long wait so I foolishly ducked out. Ironically, as my salary has scaled so has the price of his knives ($500 per inch for my extravagantly desired specs) and he doesn't even accept orders anymore unless your name ends in Keller. I am on his lottery list so I have a whopping 0.1% chance of getting an order in next year. I wish someone would just give me one as a gift. |

I had the chance to pick up an impeccably clean used Kramer chef's knife, for $600, but, could not pull the trigger, now the Shun versions cost almost as much. Oh well, I also had a chance to buy Microsoft stock back in 1978, I think it was.

Smoke Jumper... you are a winner.
While the Lamb Chop was an afterthought and essentially a "side" to the Timpano, I can see that little loin chop is perfectly cooked and needs to be awarded... Smoke Jumper, you are the second Brethren to be awarded the..... ALF Tick of Approval.. Cheers! Bill
