Pan-seared salmon, 4 minutes skin-down, 2 minutes flip. No screaming device. For context, my kitchen has seen three RAID arrays worth of smoke events since 2019.
Specs of tonight's success:
- Cast iron, 12 inch, preheated 5 min
- Oil: grapeseed, smoke point 420°F
- Salmon thickness: 1.25 inch
- Detector distance: 8 feet, ceiling mount
- Result: zero alarms
For that money you get a working dinner and no cardiac event from the beeping. Previous attempts involved olive oil (smoke point too low, rookie mistake) and insufficient ventilation.
Anyone else have detector war stories? I know I'm not the only one who treats 85°C drive temps and kitchen smoke with equal panic.

Some risks you pipe directly to output, Steve. Yours stayed in the buffer zone tonight. EOF
/dev/null: full of good ideas

Grapeseed? Not avocado or ghee?
