Steel Cut Oats

Yesterday my 50 pound sack of steel cut oats arrived from
Honeyvillegrain.com
These oats smell wonderful... McCanns are dry, hard, dusty, and totally
devoid of any odor whatsoever. Last night I set up a full crockful in
my slow cooker (3 cups oats + 14 cups water), this morning I woke up to
the creamiest dreamiest oatmeal I ever tasted. Good bye big rip-off
MaCanns... helloooo, wonderful 85¢/lb Honeyville!

I just took a look at their product list. They have bagel flour
listed there, which is something with which I am not familiar. Do you
know anything about that? Is it a higher gluten content?

Sounds great. How will you store it, have a mouseproof
bucket?

Now that is funny. Anywhere within these walls is mouseproof. I have
six cats. <g>

You see that face... that's all the mouseproof anyone needs. Once
Mooch's fire control locks on any mouse is a goner within
milliseconds... the US military has been after me for years, they don't
have anything comes close. She's been known to time things just right
so she can get two mice at once, Mooch likes to conserve energy... she
doesn't move much but when it's her time to strike she can move quicker
than human eyes can follow. The Special Forces thinks she has Flash
Gorden ray gun eyes, she doesn't even need to move, one look from Mooch
mice simply have a massive coronary.

Now, Mooch does, indeed, have the look. I'll grant you that. (laugh)

amazing between the gorilla glue and this place, you're a fountain of
info. i saw some things sold there in grains that i have not been able
to find anywhere in consumer quantities. i don't think i have seen oat
fiber sold before, come to think of it. never even looked for it
although wondered why the others grains could be found as fibers.

You have the freezer space. ;-)
Not everybody does.

I store a lot of dry goods in the bottom of the refrigerator,
but only because I have a 40 cuf Hobart.......

I have a lot of grains in my freezer, but not 50lbs at a time in
there.

I order my SC oats from Honeyville, too, but pay more and have it
shipped in large metal cans..they look like oversized tomato cans on
steroids. It is sealed and kept fresh until I need them. We store them
in the garage in the cartons they are shipped in and bring them up one
can at a time.

It costs more, but I am not about to schlep 50 lbs of anything
around the house.

Used to live about 20 miles from McCanns. The product available there
was *much* better than what they ship to the US.

I do have a large freezer luckily. But it's full because I have all
that stuff in it. I usually stock up on freezable stuff when it's on
sale and I'm constantly juggling things around to make them
fit...lol... At least this way, I know whats in it. :) ....Sharon
