I know I keep forgetting to take some pics. Had to take a TV over to my parents house tonight where the KK is located so grabbed a few. Couldnt get a pic of where I sanded down the grout as my phone was dying and couldnt use flash. Here is the nylon attachment I am using. I ordered 3 more that should be here Sat. All the extra parts came in today. Heat deflector, Guru Plug, Thermo, New Dual Draft Door, and Larger Gasket I cant remember if I posted pictures of the finished shelves. I grew up building antique style cabinets with my pop. We used the distress look a lot so that is what I did. I used a red mohagony stain. Put on 3 coats then used 120 grit sand paper in random spots. Then covered with 5 coats of clear. And here is a random picture from a gift I bought myself this past weekend in the Bahamas. I had two nice Eco Drive watches that was stolen out of my truck a few years ago and havent had a watch since. I have always wanted a Breitling Navitimer but as an avg cost of $7k+ It was more of a dream. Well one of 50 Breitling boutiques is located in Nassau so decided to stop by and take a look. That is when I saw this 1884 limited edition Navitimer. Only 1884 in the world ans this is number 1150. Couldnt walk away from it so I picked her up. Between the Pitmaker Vault, 2 pellett cookers, KK, Watch, and the competition BBQ trailer I have been cut off from the Mrs. Lastly an update on the pup. This is main reason why havent been getting much done. Taking care of her with cleaning wounds, pills, etc has taken all my time. Got call from vet this past weekend and 2 of the 3 tumors were benign and the largest one came back as a very rare tumor that is usually only seen a few times a year. Luckily they only grow back 4% of the time and they gave her an 85% chance of living full lifespan so I am very relived to hear that now. Will get more pictures of tile cleaning this weekend.

Done a Trip Tip with some jelapeno and cheese sausages used tonys lanes beef rub tasted really good Outback Kamado Bar and Grill

Talk about rich.

"Just" boneless skinless chicken breasts and skillet taters. Loving the real estate on the BB32.

Well, I started. I got one screw off each rod on the door. They came off quite easily, in fact. My sockets are too thick to go on top of the other ones - the nuts are right next to the rod. Will need an open-end box wrench (9/32"), but of course I don't have one that size in my toolbox. It wouldn't be a project without at least one trip to the hardware store!

Apples, oats and ginger. Practically health food.

Here's another way if you don't do SV. Smoke a pork shoulder, picnic, Boston Butt. Pull it apart by hand and remove all the fat, skin, connective tissue. Take all that discard and render it down in a skillet. You will have a skillet full of crispy bits and fat. Reserve all that. Throw however much pulled pork you want to prepare in a cast iron skillet. Put in some of the reserved fat and crispies and toss and pan fry it till the pork has a little crispiness. You can marinade the pork before smoking it, and / or season it with any spices or aromatics in the fry pan. I served this to a little old Mexican lady who declared it the best carnitas she ever ate. To take it to a party, throw it in an electric roaster and put it on 180º when you get there, it will be even better after it heats like that for a while.

Get nine ribs. Foil three, pink paper three, run three naked. You'll have your answer.

Has anyone done a Jerked Pork Butt? Garvin

Not a whole butt, but I've done lots of jerked pork - ribs, chops, and roasts. Something as big as a butt, I'd consider injecting it in addition to slathering the outside. If you want to get OTB with it - try some jerked seafood - shrimp, fish (snapper) and lobster are all really tasty.

Oops.. I'll need to remove that and refund your purchase..

Same rods as came standard on my 32". They work great and easily installed. That door will never move again!

Sounds mighty toast.y! Thanks!

I just wish I was enjoying a piece of that cheesecake right now.:)

Aussie, those are two tasty looking cooks and I can see just how juicy the tri-tip is.

So...I ordered and received the locking rods and the above linked heat shield. The rods are great! Unfortunately, the heat shield doesn't fit -- a bit too wide. Seems to be sized for the front vent heat shield, not the gas port door.

Keep the in-progress pics coming. We like seeing the restoration in action.

I've been doing a variety of cooks (as usual). Trying to get better at posting. I always seem to see something on here that gets me in the mood for something so hopefully I can do the same for someone else. First, "Chicago style pizza" from ATK which I now know is not authentic because if the cornmeal. It's still a tasty pie.... Current favorite veg Best salmon to date Steak and spaghetti night. I learned the valuable lesson to never go below 1.5 inches in thickness. They were cooked the the right IT but I couldn't develop the crust in time to maintain that IT. I have 2+inch steaks that I am going to do an experiment on later this week I gave ckreef's cracker crust a whirl and I was surprised how much I liked it and how filling it was. It's not an imitation crust because it comes together so quickly, it's something all on its own. I'll definitely be doing it again. Family loved it I smoked two corned beef points on Saturday. Turned out pretty well but you definitely can't taste the smoke as well as regular brisket. I just realized that last plate looks a little sad. It was tasty and we had some delicious bakery bread with it as well.

For chains - 5 Guys, followed by In & Out. But, Ken, I do have a soft spot for Arby's curly fries. Mickey D's dropped off in my book when they stopped using beef tallow to placate the silly vegans! We have a local spot that makes THE BEST FRIES that I've ever had. Perfect frites - better than what I had in Belgium! I can't even get close at home, using duck fat!!

I've always been a fan of "Will Work for Beer!" Best and most stable currency in the world.

That's the guests beer fridge in my games room lol I'm a bourbon drinker but get given beer for jobs I just throw them in there it's been raided by my mates .I'm a member on a site down here called Perth beer economy where we trade in beer for goods and services Outback Kamado Bar and Grill

First cook should be the highest purpose of a KK. Don't grill something... Smoke a pork shoulder; and feed any and all who will show up some spectacular pulled pork. You will be the f...ing champion of the neighborhood. In perpetuity. All will bow to you.
