A small simple meal for me and Mrs skreef. (Delivered Hawke to college today). 400* indirect with the firebox divider installed. Cornish Game Hen on the right with drip pan below. Zucchini Gratin on the left side. (cooked this dish in the WFO this past weekend, wanted to try it in a kamado). What you don't see is 3 small baked potatoes under the heat deflector on the left.  For first cook on the Oval Jr it was a total success. Very pleased with myself. The Zucchini Gratin is becoming one of my favorite vegetable side dishes. 

Hi folks. I'm new here. I just took delivery of a vibrant blue 32" this week.

So I made the switch and purchased the 23 Ultimate! Cant Wait!

After the WFO oven I swore no more grills but Mrs skreef learned not to believe that line of crap a few grills ago - LOL For the last few years me and Mrs skreef have been taking an Akorn Jr on vacation with us. Our honeymoon, rental cabin, sisters house, the beach, even NASCAR. The Akorn Jr has served us well but when Primo came out with the GO Cradle for their Oval Jr I knew I would eventually get that setup.  We had that lunar eclipse a couple of weeks ago and it made my wallet have a mind of it's own (that's my story and I'm sticking to it ) Well it finally arrived at my local dealer and I picked it up yesterday. The inner workings and a few extra parts. Here is the GO Cradle. 9 bolts/nuts and about 10 minutes to assemble. Fairly study with nice two hand handles.  Altogether now. I had some time before dinner so I fired it up to play with the vents. First stop was low-n-slow. 240* was easy enough. I let it ride there for almost 2 hours until we were done eating dinner. After that I bumped it up a bit and let it ride there for 30 minutes or so before shutting down the vents and going to bed. Very pleased with it's performance and will be cooking dinner on it tonight. It's basically Jr on steroids.....

For sure mate.cheers last time I was in L.A .I went to Disney land as you do .but decided to catch a bus to the outer suburbs I can't remember where but it was dodgy as I ended up in the poorest part of town .seriously and went into a pub got so many evil looks like who are you but it turned out great once I said how's it going mate. I'm from Australia I didn't get shot lol Outback kamado Bar and Grill

LOL - as this point the only thing that is going to help that fund is the lottery. But Mrs skreef is expecting me to pull the trigger on a true outdoor kitchen one day (before the 42).

Am I the only one who was afraid to click on this based on the title?

To eat all the food in the house and have Mom do his laundry - typical college student!

The meal look great. The zucchini looks amazing

I see they do have a splitter for the fire for this size. Awesome. https://komodokamado.com/collections/23-ultimate-accessories/products/23-ultimate-charcoal-basket-splitter

I just had to make something after seeing CK,s WFO buns so got out my Lekue and made mini bagettes. This is a no fuss no muss bake.

@Aussie Ora I completely agree. It's not if, just when. I'm very patient when making these kinds of purchases. Looking forward to sharing my KK cooks here. The community here is fantastic, not to mention Dennis. I'm in.

Nice cook looks very tasty! Did you post the recipe for the zucchini gratin? If it’s your favorite it must be delicious

Just 2 for a while. But Hawke usually comes home every other weekend.

I can see a Continental roll in the making nicely Done Mac .if you not sure what a Continental roll is. https://www.theurbanlist.com/perth/a-list/perths-best-continental-rolls Outback kamado Bar and Grill

What a great story. Jasper looks like he was a feisty little dog. Fitting that he should have TWO boats named in his honour. Good dog!

Tee hee. I don't think this is helping the 42 Fund. Just sayin'...

Good story. can’t wait to see the finished boat

Great story, Jon! Sorry to hear that Jasper is no longer with us, but sounds like he had a very good life! So now we know the backstory to your profile "picture." LOVE IT!!!

I was too slow, the owner, I really nice guy, sold her today. Going to keep working on the WAF (wife acceptance factor) :) so I’m ready if another comes up. Hopefully the new owner joins the community here.

A decent cover will do the trick. We get an average of 12 feet of snow per year and my cover has kept the cooker nice and dry. I do try to cover the cooker while it is still a little warm.

Nothing no to worry about! I am a cold weather guy and have one in the mountains of Japan and one in Jackson Hole. No problems handling the coldest of cold or grilling way below zero. Just buy a cover and no worries.

Aussie if you come to Calif. stop by and we can cook something and have some adult beverages lol

I enjoyed looking through it; it's very similar to the one that our supermarket puts out periodically. I loved that all the recipes are metric and the Aussie names for various products. From conversations on here, and other past sources, I suss'ed out most of it. Example, in the salad recipe it called for "rocket," which I know that's what we call arugula.

Sorry if you have taken the time to look at shipping costs. At this time, I won’t be able to buy.
