I was sauteing (real stick) butter with minced garlic, low & slow, so no burning & there was a major crash in the living room. The dog & 1 cat ran past me; I left the pan unattened on the burner for maybe 2 minutes, it was nicely browned when I got back.

Now what kind of butter you use? I but kerrygold 2 sticks package maybe once a month, more often if popcorn gets involved.
