Not joking about the dog bowl method at all - just poking at bit of fun
at the typo in your original email ("dog bowel roasting" as opposed to
"dog bowl").

David and Mike,
I used to joke about the Dog Bowl and Heat gun method too! Then in all
fairness I thought I had better give it a try. It is a wonderful and
simple way of roasting. The amount of control is amazing. The quality
(that is what we are after isn't it) of the roast is as good as any
other, and it may be better than anything else out there. (I am doing
half pound roast too!) The real problem as I see it is some of you have
spent $100's of dollars on roasters, and your afraid to admit that maybe
a $5.00 dog bowl and a heat gun bought for other purposes can do a good
roast. I have a $150.00 HWP collecting dust in my pantry, so I know the
burn first hand! I can think of no other method except maybe Wok
roasting where you can observe without any obstructions the
transformation of the green bean to a finely roasted bean! So, suck in
the pride and experiment, "ride the wild learning curve" as Gene says,
you might be surprised!&nbs p; This method of roasting in no joke. It
uses the most sophisticated computer out there, the one between your
shoulders, to control the roast. A lot of the fun is observing and
realizing what is happening with your roast, and then changing the
variables using your brain rather than using a dial, a switch, or a
chip! With all of that said, I guess I must admit, I am converted to
Dog Bowl and Heat Gun Roasting. Just to prove it, on Friday I will be
roasting a half pound of ISH in my Dog Bowl!

OK, somebody has to say it - don't you think you'd get crappy roasts in
a dog bowel? (ba-dum-bum)
Sorry, a little hopped up on Songbird right now...
