Well...............not our beloved forum member MacKenzie ……………….but close…………………….Mac the 19” TT KK….delivered one year ago today!
Still marvel at the quality, functionality & beauty every time I cook on it.
Must also say that I enjoy the KK forum and its members just as much!!!
We had a bunch folks over two weeks ago for our annual fall festival BBQ with the neighbors. We cooked 12 slabs of ribs ( I have cooked as many as 15 at one time ), two briskets, 4 pork shoulders and 48 chicken legs, over the course of 2 days.
Here is a photo of nine slabs of ribs on the rib rack and the other three top side. Everything was a hit.
While we are on the birthday kick, here are a few pixs from last night. We had to go a day early as the restaurant was fully booked for a wine festival dinner.
One has to start the dinner off properly-
Crab cake for appetizer.
Australian Wagu was on the menu and I new Aussie would say, go for it, so I did.:)
As i side I chose mushroom risotto,
The chef tried to talk me into rare but I wasn't going to bite on that one.
For dessert i chose Cherries Jubilee.
A double espresso to end the meal.
Thank you, Dan. It really is my birthday.
Started celebrating last evening with a wagu steak at a restaurant that is about a 40 minute drive from here. I'll post a pix later.;)
Jon, this is a riot because, today IS actually my birthday. When I saw the post title I thought how does he know that? I guess we'll remember for next year. It IS great to have you here.
Just don't overcook it. Lamb gets tough if you cook it past medium. I prefer somewhere between rare and medium-rare for chops/racks and medium rare for shoulders.
Cumin is great on lamb those ingredients will go well I have used Chinese wine on lamb and it works well we have a great Asian infulance down here. Go for it but I highly recommend foiling it to keep the moisture in makes a huge difference with lamb Outback Kamado Bar and Grill[emoji621]
Looks pretty darn good! I was thinking of doing a Uyghur style roast from Xinjiang (North West) in China. Basically a roast shoulder with a (mostly) dry rub heavy on the cumin, some chilli powder, ginger, soy, sugar, shaoxing wine etc. On a bed of potatoes and onions. What say you?
