I've decided to buy a popcorn maker instead of just the Pop Secret microwave stuff I normally eat after having popcorn at the Fine Parking lot at the Denver Airport a while back. It was really good!

Is this the one you recommend? How about kernels? Where do you order them and what brand. I looked on Amazon and there's a lot to choose from.

Wabash Valley Farms Stainless Steel 6-Quart Whirley Pop Stovetop Popcorn Popper

 

I know it's not what you are looking for Patty but this thread made me think of the old Jiffy Pop that we used to make on the stove when I was a kid.

 

That's the one that Scoots and I use. I love it. Get it here: https://www.whirleypopshop.com/
Also, I recommend these kernels: https://www.whirleypopshop.com/produ...t-popping-corn
After popping using just a little vegetable oil, I sprinkle with salt and pour on some melted butter.
YUM!

 

Gene is right. I have the Wabash Farms popper. I have worn out one of the aluminum poppers and replaced it with a stainless steel popper. It was a good investment!

I also use the Wabash Real Theater kits. They are very close to what you get at the movies and they are very convenient.

^Yeah, we used that once or twice as a kid and it was always burned. Of course, my mom could burn water.

^Thank you, Gene! I ordered both but not at that site.

 

Thank you, David.

 

^Scoots, I tried those Theater kits, but I found I liked the popcorn with just salt and butter better. Different strokes! But, no matter which, popcorn popped this way is far, far superior to that microwaved stuff.

 

Absolutely!

That is so cool. A friend has one like that and he makes great popcorn with it.
