This was 5 hours into my 12 hour cook on the KK and is one definition of heat soaking as we are in the middle of a heatwave here in Italy. Ten hours in, the internal temperature started to drift towards 150C so I dialled back the top hat. Temperature settled back down and the pork capocollo was delicious.
I am still amazed by how little fuel a KK uses to do its job. This is my 16KK fire basket after 12 hours of cooking low and slow.
A 3kg lump of pig. The capocollo - pig neck and shoulder. Closest US cut is a pork butt.
Neglected beds of Zucchini have large veggies on the vine, they're not the best once past a size and often overlooked . I scoop out the inards seeds and create the cavity where you can make the stuffing of choice. Today it was a Mexican base with a triple chesse topping and then drizzled with a marinara sauce.
