 If you made a mistake and ordered pebbles 🤭, I am sure that there is time to make the change and cross over to the right side of the tracks.

Stir, stir, stir!

Thank you for a great cooker!!

All I can add is, support your local businesses

Buy local or bye bye local. 

When it comes to cold weather worry more about your temp gauge than the hopefully covered KK.

Temps below full span of the thermometer can throw it out of calibration.

That comes close to the U.S. tax code.

@dstr8 Glad to see you're still around! Used the KK last night...still going strong and looking good.

equal parts apple cider vinegar, bourbon and water.

Are you sure they were equal??

Welcome! You're going to love your KK.

I don't know if anyone on the forum follows cycling, but my nephew is racing in Europe and making a name for himself!

Is there any benefit in keeping the smaller grate in easy reach or can I pack it away on my top shelf?

I put AL foil on it when doing butts and such.

@MacKenzie, I Love the closeup of the ketchup!

I was grumpy and would have loved that bandsaw that you talked about @David Chang!  

 

Might sound a little weird, but how about a reciprocating saw (sawz-all) with a metal blade? Cheaper than a bandsaw and portable.

I apologize for not asking sooner about your method! how does putting the few coals in the pan at the bottom differ from using a few coals at the bottom of the basket?

I just find it easier to place a pan down there on the basket handles rather than emptying out basket itself. 

I've smoked jerky a few times. I place an old pan (meatloaf, pie, etc.) in the bottom and use just a few pieces of charcoal and wood in that pan. Gives better control of flame/temp. Also stay out of the wind. It can more or less pull a vacuum on the smoker making temp harder to control. YMMV

Are we making a similar investment in indoor space ventilation, using heat exchangers to make outdoor air quality the indoor standard in all public spaces? No. We breathe the equivalent of sewage water, and accept common colds and now COVID as an unavoidable fact of life. Yes, we're that stupid.

I'll take my indoor Northern California air quality over outdoor L.A. (Southern California) air quality any day of the week. 

So @tony b did it cook like a beef brisket? How many lbs. was it?

You're fine waiting for daylight to grout. Congrats on your KK.

A few folks in the Bay Area that might take you up on it - @Bruce Pearson and @Paul immediately come to mind.

@tony b are you spending others peoples money again?!

I'm waiting to see how much it cost before I jump in...but I'm interested. 

I cook lamb the same way...only over fresh rosemary cuttings and from the beginning on. Not just at the end of the cook.

Do rub the bird down with Gehee or butter or just put your rub on directly to the skin?

Ghee or butter under the skin, rub +baking powder on the skin.
