Hello KK family!! Just an update to my last post. After experimenting with Kingsford's Professional Briquettes in my KK with great results . I then tried Costco's Kirkland Professional Briquettes 30 lbs for $14.99. I used 1/3 of a basket. The results were also fantastic. High heat long burn low ash. I grilled Flat Iron steak marinated with Teriyaki , chicken Kebobs, Brats with roasted potatoes. I was grilling at 450 degrees. I Would Highly recommend both of these Briquettes . I Was very Impressed with how they both preformed. I Also had 1/2 basket left of useable briquettes. George Baralis IMG_4716.mov

sourdough batard on a steel with a steam bar on the mid rack. all vents closed once bread was in. this steam bar produces a lot of steam it was coming out from the bottom vent. with all vents closed, it went from 260c to 220c in 20 min. this got me a blond loaf fully expanded, but no color. so maybe i should have started at 270-280c. i snuffed out the fire in doing this and finished the baking in the house oven. i normally don't bake bread unless i have a lot of left over fuel and the kk is already hot. but it's still more practical in a house oven.
