Tonight- Bistecca Fiorentina. My first attempt at a slow cooked reverse sear steak. Around 1.1kg. Simple salt and pepper seasoning. 225F for 1hr 40min until internal temp was just about 50C; cranked up the heat while the steak rested for 20min. 5min sear on each side (2min 30sec x4 with 90 degree rotations), 54C when I pulled it off. Few foil baked potatoes (in the KK for the whole cooking time), simple salad and chimichurri. Best steak I've ever made at home bar none- no contest. Flavour, crust, and even a smoke ring despite no wood chunks/ chips etc. I am amazed- four very different meals/ meats/ cooking styles thus far, and all of them ridiculously good....

23” colbalt blue. (Bliss)

This happened just after my Saturday Rotisserie chicken, Alabama white sauce and risotto cook. Love summers. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

After a nice long walk this morning we decided it would be a nice day to spin a chicken in the KK. I took some small potatoes and fresh zucchini from the garden and put them in foil with chicken broth and placed that in the drip pan. We put the veggies in while getting a good heat soak going as I wanted to cook the chicken for the last 30 minutes with no pan under it to try and crisp the skin. After doing it that way I don’t see any reason why I couldn’t cook the chicken for the last 30 or even 40 minutes without a drip pan or foil at all under it. the entire cook was done at 400 F. We were really happy with the results, unfortunately I forgot to take plated pics but here is the chicken 😁

Yum yum that looks delicious

Great pizza Troble, thanks for information on pans

@Seasport my mother in law bought two of those for Christmas last year. She said she got them from Costco but that she’s also seen them at Cost Plus World Market made pizza again tonight. My gurus are now officially off cheese pizza and on to pepperoni which is good. So I made two pepperoni for us and one pepperoni & black olive for my wife and mother in law.

When we started looking at the KK back in March, I was thinking a 23” but my wife convinced me to go up to the 32”. By chance, while texting Dennis with some questions he let me know that he had a 32 available (a cancelled order) on the ship so I pulled the trigger. The alternative would have meant waiting until the fall. Others have commented about this - IT IS HUGE (and ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS). I cannot imagine needing more cooking space; even the 32 is overwhelming, but we do not do much large-scale entertaining. Good luck with this decision!
