Don't listen to them Bruce. They are a part of a world wide conspiracy. A group of secret members who's agenda is to stop the use of beetroot on hamburgers .I for one am in a constant battle with this group trying to stop them from brainwashing the innocent. Go forth and experience the taste and if you dare throw a pinneapple ring on aswell. Lol Sent from my SM-T835 using Tapatalk

What a day! It felt like a Christmas Eve last night for a 10 year old. Delivery arrived late so my hired muscle was sitting around It was a tight fit- 10mm to navigate through 2 close gates. Finally over dodgy ramps on a dodgy pellet jack. This is a temporary uncrating home. What’s the best way to roll it off the support island it’s sitting on? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Got the ramp thanks Paul, I was concerned I’d rip some pebbles off on the island taking the weight off the legs. All sorted. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Love the "support log" under the plywood. Where there is a will.....there is a way!!!!!!!

You are bang on Mac. Small moments when I thought about starting the chainsaw to take a fence post out and thinking, oh well, I'll just fix it later! The fork lift struggled to hold its position on the slope to lower the KK. It kept skidding backwards and needed to use the crate grounded to help brake, then the slope angle wouldn't allow him to set it and back out without tipping the KK. We had to pull two gates off their hinges. The ply bowed, wobbled and creaked under the weight. My mate in the photo couldn't believe we placed it on the deck without incident. He will be talking about this event for years and knows I've been smitten on the KK's for a long time. All part of a fun journey. Now I have to practice producing some good food. Queens birthday long weekend here so I'll line up a burn in and maybe roast some lamb on the way through. Also, grand final NRL this weekend with the Raiders playing the Roosters and we have a German exchange student arriving on Sunday...... Action packed.

I’m with you Aussie, it’s not a hamburger without beetroot. Live on the edge and dive in. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Congratulations!! How does it feel to finally have your very own KK? To have and to hold, from this day forward.

Must have been some very tense moments getting you new KK into the storage area. Great job and it is looking awesome. The real fun is about to begin.

Bruce, yes the glaze goes on after the beets are cooked.

Ok Tony I’ll put the beets on the side lol.

No, Bruce, please, don't go over to the dark side - beets do NOT belong on a burger!

I guess you just can’t beat tasty beets! They sure look yummy. I just got a delivery from snake river farms Waygu hot dogs and ground beef maybe I’ll try some pickled beets on my hamburger lol. Wow balsamic vinegar and maple syrup that really sounds good! Mac please save me a few! Did you put the glaze on after cooking them?

Aussie is coming to dinner. New to me recipe and I did like it and plan to make another batch tomorrow for the freezer. These are good warm or cold, nice to snack on. https://www.onceuponachef.com/recipes/balsamic-glazed-roasted-beets.html#tabbox Peeled beets- Baked and glaze is on, balsamic vinegar and maple syrup. I went back for seconds and normally I would not do that for warm beets but these were tasty.

to me, it is all a bunch of BS you get one kick at the can - take it forget what these knuckle heads say or write. I am all for sliding into my grave with a well worn, abused body. You get no extra credit for being healthy when you die.

This thread was a good reminder to take my smoker apart and clean it. I have been pretty lazy. I left the smoker attached to the KK for weeks and only detached it to shake out old pellets/crud when necessary. I took it apart and soaked in PBW. Most parts came out completely clean. Just had some residual black stuff on the inside of the tube around the holes where you set the fire. That seems fine to me. Another few weeks of laziness coming up...

Dig deeper, that article will be written by scientists who are paid by the international beef association, Teys Cargill, or some other related group. Pretty solid evidence suggesting too much red meat is not good for you. But doesn’t it taste good? I took about 10kg of red meat to my mothers 70th birthday. She lives in a tree hugging community in Northern New South Wales. The community with lots of vegans who boo hoo meat eaters....... that 10kg was scoffed in the first 10 minutes. I’ve never seen so many meat eating vegans before. When asked, they mumbled something about iron deficiencies Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

First cook using the flat top Sausage, peppers and onions like we used to get at the Jersey shore. Did not get a pic of the sausages split lengthwise and finished. But, wow, what a time travel to flavor. Turned out great, had a roasted beet-goat cheese salad with it.
