I was extremely happy to see that email !!!! I got one of their last boxes of Post Oak but missed out on Peach. Those are the only two i use, well occasionally some grape vine but I get that free from a friend.

this place was also the best ceviche of my life and the mussels/shellfish dish was out of this world. I’ll be attempting those in the summer @Troble , the above was from an older post you had in this thread. Just hoping you followed thru in your pursuit of making Peruvian Ceviche? I’m hoping “Yes” and you can share your recipe! Tonight my wife and I went to a Peruvian restaurant and had their ceviche and loved it. I’ve only had / made Mexican style ceviche and want to work on learning Peruvian style ceviche. I loved the contrast of the sweet potato with the acidity in this style. Gracias!

Some good news. Got an email from the owner of Fruita woods. He's sold the business to Denver Firewoods. They are in transition, so we won't be able to check them out just yet. But it's nice to know that we will have some options again for getting smoking wood chunks/splits. From the email: I am proud to announce that one of my suppliers has elected to take over the websites in effort to keep fruitawood.com and fruitawood chunks.com ALIVE!!! I am confident the Denver Firewood team will be able to continue providing you the same quality wood I have for the past 16 years. I am in the process of transferring the websites and all necessary information over to them. Please allow sufficient time to update the websites and get inventory available to start accepting orders.

Thanks DennisLinkletter, I picked up a used kamado and need to do some repairs. I already have a tub of Acrylic Grout I purchased from Lowe's Home Improvement store and was wondering if I could use it - https://www.lowes.com/pl/flooring-tools-supplies/tile-tools-supplies/grout/acrylic-premix/4294856532-920575991071. I would be just filling tears/cracks with a surface application. Would this work?

Wow.

One of my favourite meals to cook on the KK is paella. Especially since moving to our new house, which has an induction cooktop. Steel paella pans are never perfectly flat, so induction cooking is a pain. And then there is the mess. Cooking a paella outdoors, over fire, is one of life’s great pleasures. And that’s all traditional paella was- a rice dish cooked over fire in a pan. Having spent some time in Valencia, I’m well versed in traditional paella- and often make a traditional inspired dish with chicken, green beans and sliced Roma tomatoes. At other times- I go maximalist. Tonight, with my parents visiting from interstate, was maximalist. Chorizo, chicken thighs, baby calamari, prawns and mussels with Roma tomato, saffron, spicy smoked and sweet pimenton, fresh rosemary from the garden and green beans on top. My friends always complain that I say that each iteration of a dish was the best ever. They have a point. Nevertheless this was the best paella ever- smoky, spicy, redolent of the aromas of fresh seafood and herbs, the bitter crunch of the soccsrat from the bottom of the pan. Sharpened up with a healthy squeeze of fresh lemon over the top. Heaven.

one of the last cool evenings to do cold smoking.. maldon salt cultured french butter salmon

Genius. That'll work.

I've been on a bit of a journey the last few weeks to get this thing ready for a move to Australia. We're getting to the point where the juice may not be worth the squeeze for a few logistical and personal reasons. So I wanted to see what the market might be like for a 21" Supreme in generally good condition. Price is negotiable, but I'd like it to cover a chunk of my replacement cost for a new KK. (You'll see from a previous post that I had some issues with some green stuff at a few seams-- I've addressed this and will be resealing everything today.) Here's what's included: 21" Supreme in Matte Black Pebble purchased in 2018 2 SS/teak side tables New black cover purchased and arriving today New Tel-tru thermometer Basket splitter Rotisserie (8" cradle with 6" reducer) and new unopened cordless OneGrill motor BBQ guru New plugs New one-piece main gasket (not yet installed) All original spare parts Probably some other odds and ends If you're interested, please reach out here or at (john period boomgard aat g mail) and we can discuss price and logistics. Grill would ideally be removed by May 1.

The KK missed yah, and no that doesn't look like Iowa corn, they say Iowa corn is as high as an elephants eye...but how would I know, never been to Iowa, only on a map.

Well, I dodged the proverbial bullet—at least the 32% one for 90 days. I will still get hit with a 10% at the end of this month, which still hurts, but I won't be losing money and need to reevaluate everything. ARGH.

Please give me a call if you have any questions.. Too expensive for me to ship an assembled crate without a grill in it. I suppose I could ship one in pieces; there would still be the trucking from Vegas. Call if that interests you.. Would arrive in June.

Home from vacation and it was warm enough to fire up the KK for dinner last night. Pork Chop and Corn. This early in the season, I'm guessing the corn is from FL? It was OK - a bit tough (expected if shipped from that far away), but it did have a bit of sweetness to it, so not all bad. Direct, main grate, 325F, with a chunk of peach. (BTW - just got my box from Fruita. Sad to see them go!)

But of course, I have two and you really don't have to look hard David they're all about. Manufacturers are abundant although I'd be hard pressed to say where all the matierials might have originated. My Goldens is boldly stamped made in the USA. Don't worry, be happy....things are coming around

Link to another member uncrating, this should be enough to have a skilled person create a crate for you. It is for a 23", but should be able to scale it. Remember, the spin top comes off and the upper collar is trapped in between wood strips in the crate, the first pic shows this. Another link to a 23, with different angles, etc for reference.

baby back ribs havent cooked on the kk in a long time but still nailed my temp in two adjustments..

104% tariff on china in a few hours.. is there an 100% american made smoker/grill that exists these days?

I wonder if this is something @DennisLinkletter might have available ? Or sell this one and buy a new one ?

Crazy times. Hopefully Dennis can navigate the challenges.

I cannot find any photo's of the crate, sorry

I may have some photos from when I received my various cookers. I will look for them. I did find a picture of the support blocks, it only shows down to a 23" size, but you should be able to use the design modified to fit under the cooker.

Bit of a long shot, but is there anyone on the west coast that would be willing to part with their crate for a reasonable pile of cash? I'm shipping from Seattle to Sydney and would love to find something purpose built for the journey. Barring that, are there any crate designs I could share with a local builder? Thanks!

Does anybody have a photo of a lamb/goat in a roti cradle?
