  1. Fantastic cook. I especially like the baby octopus. Great use of the Solo Stove Bonfire.
  2. Where my company hauls for gives me a Christmas ham from The Honey Baked Ham Company every year. It's a 1/4 ham and there's only three of us so it's a lot of food. Usually I do a huge Christmas spread. This year the day after Christmas me and Mrs skreef are going down to St. Augustine so I'll keep dinner simple with just the ham and a few sides leaving the leftovers for my son to eat while we are gone.
  3. I clean my gaskets with a plastic bristle brush before every cook to keep the bits and pieces out of the crease. Just a light sweeping will do if done on a regular basis. I'll also wipe it down from time to time. Like @tony b said older KK's have the top latch plate welded so only the bottom is adjustable. The welds are micro welds along the two sides of the upper latch plate. You have to look pretty hard to see them.
  4. Mrs skreef is the chip chef. Sliced extra thin and deep fried. In the end don't forget the most important part - sprinkled with Australian chicken salt. We have an air fryer but deep fried is the only way to go for these.
  5. There's enough food in that freezer I could eat for a year! Are you trying to feed an army?
  6. What has not been mentioned is the 8 mates on the balcony drinking Guiness and standing around the BB admiring it's good looks. Now we have doubled the weight. Reminds me of years ago and a friend's back porch that collapsed when his parents were out of town. Yea bad idea putting the keg out there and everyone trying to get a refill.
  7. Great write up. To be honest we have been making actual homemade chips lately. (American potato chips not French fries). Maybe we'll have to try this out to make French fries.
  8. Excellent cook. Definitely making me hungry.

    Funky Old Cow

    Mine is a Nuke Delta grill. I got it from BBQGuys. It's handmade in Argentina but is a lower end unit. It does not have the V shaped Grates but I do have a set of custom cut Grill Grates for it to take care of the fat issue when needed. I mainly use it for cooking steaks.
  10. The WFO and Santa Maria style grill are still out in the BBQ garden. The PKGO and CampChef are hanging out in the trailer waiting for the next camping trip.
  11. The 16 just wasn't getting used very often. The porch was very crowded. Now I have space to breath.
  12. I know you don't actually think I sold all my grills. Only two grills left on the porch that is. 16" Komodo Kamado, Primo Oval Jr, LG Konro, and special side burner setup have all been cleaned up and are in storage in a spare room in the house. What's left on the porch is my 19" Komodo Kamado and my Blackstone Pro series griddle. Let's not forget my picnic table with a large rectangular hole in the middle where the Konro use to reside - LOL I guess this is a testament of what grills I use the most.
  13. Nice. That was my first hibachi grill before I got the Konro. I still have it tucked away on the bottom BBQ shelf. Works just like my Konro only smaller.
  14. Awesome on the package finally arriving. Didn't know that about Famous Dave's. Those spice blend packages came from a kewl spice store on Jekyll Island when we went camping last time. I bought myself the same set of 4 but I haven't tried them yet. Let me know if you need any guidance on the Travel Bug. If you look at its description and goal we are going to make that Travel Bugs owner a very happy person as we definitely gave a huge boost for that goal. Thanks for your help with that.
  15. Between my CampChef griddle/burner combination and the PKGO I think I'm covered pretty good.
  16. I warned Mrs skreef it was coming sooner or later. She found out how serious I was when we got home Friday and it was sitting on the front porch - LOL. I think she's just about given up on trying to save me from my addiction. I do have my Primo Oval Jr cleaned up and ready to sell. I'm probably going to shed a tear or two when it finally goes.
  17. So you ordered a Lang? If so which model. Just last month I was camping down there and drove right by Lang at 4 pm on a Thursday (they were open). I've been kicking myself ever since for not stopping in. No worries we'll be camping down there again next spring. I'm quite certain Mrs skreef was glad we didn't stop in at Lang. She does know it's on the list for stops next trip.
  18. @Jon B. When they were first announced (early October) I knew it was just a matter of time. Then a video was posted on Guru where I saw that awesome probe port and the hook was set. It just seemed like the perfect portable charcoal grill for camping (boating included). I ordered mine Wednesday afternoon the day before Thanksgiving from Atlanta Grill Company. It arrived Friday afternoon the day after Thanksgiving. A record breaking delivery. It will get it's true maiden voyage Christmas break on a trip to St Augustine. In the meantime I'm geting some practice runs on it. Seems great minds think alike.
  19. I clicked that link. Totally awesome detail you posted. This is probably a stupid question but here goes. Does 10x200" mean 10 frames at 200 seconds (3 minutes 20 seconds)?
  20. That is a picture you can really be proud of. Fantastic.
  21. I swear this is my last one - LOL Of course Lang offset smokers is only a few hours drive from my house. Right down where we like to go camping...
  22. 1952 For straight up grilling they are top of the class and the build quality is right up there. For low-n-slow....... Well I had 2 Boston Butts on the main grate of my 19" table top KK today. Just finished chunking the meat up. A chunk of the bigger butt (26 oz.) is vacuum sealed and in the freezer labeled Camping - St Augustine, FL - Christmas Break. Just needed charcoal searing while going camping to compliment my CampChef griddle/burner setup.
  23. Under normal circumstances I might agree with you but the grate is 17" x 12" which is more than enough space for just me and Mrs skreef camp grilling. Definitely more usable space compared to my old Akorn Jr. and about the same usable space as my 16" KK. And I can actually carry this - LOL
  24. Yup I couldn't resist. The newly released PKGO. PK's latest addition, a table top version for camping or tailgating. Can be used as a single unit with a lid or used as two open top hibachi grills. Dual top and bottom vents. Even comes with a probe port in the back of the lid. Should make a great addition to the Travel Trailer. Had to try it out with a few quick burgers for lunch. "Hi my name is Charles ........ I have a problem ........."
