Haven't made these in a while, sweet stuffed peppers with Italian sausage and things, topped with fresh mozzarella and cheddar.

I’ve been waiting for the right day to break out of the cold tundra of Rochester, NY to fire up the KK for some great cooking and today was the day. I bought some dino ribs from a local grass fed farm, salted and peppered them with a touch of crushed red pepper, and put them on the grill at 250° at 7:30 am. 10 hours later, including 2 in the stall, they came out perfectly.

Wings tripped with an everything seasoning and cooked top shelf to mature. Then split, one side left alone the other swashed in a Chardonnay rosemary and thyme jelly after cooked. The thing is, any jelly will do for flavor especially for wings, a little heat on the stove in a sauce pan with a splash of Chard wine, and brought to temp..leave, then toss at end. Any jelly will do, red to fig jelly, grape jelly to merlot etc. The sweetness is suttle but obvious, you can double the exposure by thickening the sauce, your direction. I did add a bit of dry blended rosemary and thyme to spark the sauce while heating and in addition you can lightly sprinkle those crushed/blended dry herbs over afterwards for some taste, they'll stick to the sugar....be careful.

By coincidence, we also smoked some beef ribs (SRF) this past weekend. Similar cook as SteveL outlined. Came out well if I do say so myself, but that's a lot of meat. Will be freezing some for later. John

I"d like to in advance wish everyone a very Happy Valentine's Day tomorrow !! On Valentine's Day 40 years ago in 1986 I had my 1st date with my now wife. I remember it was a snowy Friday night. And I wasn't sure if I would have to cancel the date. But I said to myself no!! And decided to brave the snow drive slow and make it happen!! Then the restaurant I intended to go to the fanciest one I knew of but never been too was closed because of the snow. So we ended up at a 24 hour diner that was open and it turned out to be a great meal! The best date ever!! Please enjoy the day with your loved one's and if weather permits and you don't have reservations then enjoy a very special meal off your KK! And for those who are missing Loved one's may your memories bring you joy and comfort!!! Be Blessed!! gcb

Thanks. Good to be back grilling. Another cook last night. Teriyaki chicken with roasted smashed potatoes and Greek green beans.

tekobo Thanks for the welcome!! I currently have Tiles. Convincing my wife to get the pebble KK will be tough as she has been kind enough in the past year to allow me to purchase 3 new grills. A lonestargrillz 20x42" pellet grill, A 40'' true flame gas grill and my 32'' KK. So I may have to wait for a while!! Here is a picture of all 3. And yes I have a very Loving wife!! 39 years we are married!! I don't want to push my luck! lol

That chick is sitting in a Lazy Boy, and she is lookin b e a u t i f u l.

It was garlic toast actually. No butter, just rubbed a raw clove of garlic over the toasted bread. Sometimes I will drizzle some EVOO on it.

yes still using it. they sell butane grills if you want to do indoors. but they don’t cook as well as charcoal..

Looking good brother! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

SteveL, wow what two great cooks you've done. Everything is looking perfect and I love the shot of your KK with the smoke coming out of the chimney and the snow on the ground. It's so encouraging.👍👍

A nice rack of ribs. 10hrs of anticipation

Excellent job on those dinos! Understand completely about the wanting to grill after the cold weather breaks. We've been in the upper 50s here this week and maybe hitting upper 60s tomorrow! Wish that I could say that it's going to last, but it won't. Highs back to the upper 30s by next weekend.

What? No butter on my toast! Sinful

MacKenzie Thank you! You as well!!

A bit of advice from past experience - I see that you have your temperature probes perpendicular to the axis of rotation. I've had drippings run down them and block the signal as it cakes up on the ends. I try and insert my probes parallel to the rotisserie shaft to prevent that. Just sayin'

There was a photographer back in the 1970's who, when asked why he took a certain picture, replied "Because I wanted to see what it looked like as a photograph." Something like that.

@PVPAUL I have a 21" and when I do rotisserie cooks there's not much room for a drip pan. I take out the lower sear grate, put the heat deflector on the basket handles and put a cast iron skillet on top of that.

Here are the results of my first attempt at measuring the differences in temperature measurements at different distances from the inside of the dome. This was a fairly short cook, so it doesn't really show how the plots may converge. There was more difference than I expected, considering the small distances involved. I stopped because the temperature was getting close to the limit of the part of the thermometer that is supposed to be inserted into food. The the sudden changes in the grate probe readings at 146 and 160 are due to taking some salmon on and off the grill.

Excellent. It finally got above freezing here, so it's grilling time! First time firing up the KK in 2026! Fat pork chop and asparagus. Plated with curry rice and side salad with miso dressing.

Well as it was Super Bowl Sunday I had to make chili. But I did something different this year, smoked pork instead of brisket. It was a hit, all portioned out and delivered to friends and family along with some bread and cornbread,

There is an business near me that sells olive leaf teas. There are lots of olive trees around here, but I haven't gotten around to trying to make tea from the leaves.

The cover of my 32 is frozen to the ground in about a half inch of ice lol

I still make it for my Indonesian customers.. I just can't sell it in the US with the current 19% tariff..
