Irish Calzone on the MAK
« Reply #-1 on: March 14, 2013, 11:52:48 PM »
Kinda hungry...kinda bored with the usual things that came to mind. So - it was "scavenger hunt dinner time".  ;D
 Looked in the fridge....and here is what I cam up with:
Some corned beef (fat removed) and cheese....


O.K. - scrap the shredded cheese - I found some real Irish sharp white cheddar...better ;)



And...some peppers for sweetness and color....



Into the MAK griddle ( my new best friend on the deck ;) )



It's getting all happy an a nice color. 40 minutes total. Set temp was 350F, and it was in the 20's outside. Not bad at all.



Did I mention it was a big calzone?



I put some brown mustard on it...Oh Yeah.....


This was worth doing again.

Thank you much - I used some marjoram to lighten the heavy, saltiness that you get with both corned beef and sharp Irish cheddar. That and the sweetness of the peppers balanced it out pretty well.

I don't know the "fearless leader" guy.... ;D...But thanks for the compliments - I would have left it for more browning, but is was COLD outside, and I was concerned that the bottom would be too brown ( AKA- burnt  ;)) had I gone as long as I really wanted.

For me -the lesson learned about use of corned beef in this kind of application is to remove all of the fat possible. You will still have plenty of moisture. If you don't get enough of the fat -you will have a greasy, soggy mess. This one turned out good, as you can see from the crust being flaky, and not heavy from excess fats.
