I like the idea - less mess if changing baskets.

Hello,

  I am moving to GA and our shipper after telling us they could transport now says they cant transport any charcoal products.  If you live in Chicagoland area and are interested in acquiring mine - please let me know.  [email protected]  I have approximately 50 boxes off the top of my head.

Thanks,

Mark

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Mark

Congrats on your KK.

Hello

I am looking for any insight from KK owners that use KK Coco char and also hickory, oak etc wood chunks for smoking items like Pork Butt. I have heard to use a full basket of coco and just want to see what you have found that works when adding smoking woods. Do you put on top, intermix etc? I have found the coco is awesome but a little hard to get lit. My KK will be here in Nov but I do have some Coco and have been playing around with on my Weber charcoal grill. Any tips as I want to use my KK primarily for smoking and will use coco for smoking and lump when I am grilling. Thanks Mark

Re: Great application for a Big Green Egg!

Allows utilization of something that wouldn't get utilized otherwise. Ingenious!

I talked to Dennis yesterday and my grill will ship this month and he sent me some production pics. I love the blue and can't wait to get this work of art as I know will even be more amazing in person. It is fun to show friends at work and hear the superlatives they say - awesome, amazing, piece of grilling art etc. I am giving out Dennis's web site address left and right and have sold some charcoal for him. I must be like a TV preacher on crack lol n68746

Re: Vacation - Bali it is!

We had a fantastic time in Bali! We went to Vincent's and the food was excellent but they were out of tiger prawns so that was a bummer but still neat place. I highly recommend Bali as it is a neat and eye opening experience. Meeting Dennis and seeing the factory was the best part!

I don't care what anyone says - it is not irrational to fly half way around the world to see a grill. If it is we were on vacation

Re: Better late than never!

My wife and I had the privilege of meeting Dennis and touring his factory. He is a great, genuine person and we enjoyed our time with him immensely. Very much looking forward to getting our 32" KK, teak table & coco char and extremely happy with the whole process. Dennis is the real deal.

Hello

I have a 32 inch KK, a cabinet and as of now 40 boxes of coco char coming and should be to me in July/Aug. If anyone is interested in adding to my palette to take advantage of shipping rates - let me know and it can piggy back on mine and save you some $$$$ due to volume shipping.

Re: 23 & 32 KK side by side pics

I am lucky have a paver stone patio with a cement base below so weight will be no problem to support.

Re: 23 & 32 KK side by side pics

I decided to go with a Cobalt Blue 32 - way bigger than I need but you only regret too little room and I will grow into it. Soooooooooo excited

Hello, My wife and I had the distinct pleasure of meeting Dennis and touring his factory on May 1st. We had a great time and I wanted to share some pics with Dennis's permission. So excited to be getting either a 23 or 32 just have to decide which one Thanks Mark n68725 n68726

Re: Doing my part to Help KK

I just posted in bbq brethren about our awesome tour of the factory and a pic with website!

How do you clip the grate clip to the cooking grate with it being so thick?

Thanks

Re: In Da house on Monday!!!

I was thinking the same thing - lots of teasing going on ha ha. People are busy and I am inpatient - I admit lol

Re: Vacation - Bali it is!

Converting US $ - where should I convert money and how much do I bring for a week? Seems like many places want paid in American money instead of IDR?

Thanks for all the excellent information posted.

Thanks

Mark

Re: Vacation - Bali it is!

2/3 rds of our trip we are in Candiasa - looks like a neat place away from tourists like us lol

Re: Big Bad 32!!

No - we are going to Bali in April and will meet Dennis and then decide for sure.

Re: Big Bad 32!!

As a prospective 32" buyer - any pics and/or insight would be appreciated.

Just finalized our tickets for Bali! We arrive on afternoon of April 26th. My wife travels a couple of weeks a month for work so FF miles are saved for International trips like this - funny that the miles were earned on AA and every leg we fly Cathay Pacific which I hear is an amazing airline so grateful for One World Alliance. We are so excited to meet Dennis - I have spoken to him and emailed so many times that he feels like family. What a great guy and I am very thankful to be able to take this trip. I told my wife I enjoy talking to him just like a good friend - dont laugh you guys know what I mean. I guess it is his sincerity in a non-sincere world - refreshing.

Leave Chicago on April 24th non-stop Ohare to Hong Kong

Hong Kong to Bali

Bali to Java (Suburbya)

Java to Bali

Bali to Hong Kong

Hong Kong to Ohare non-stop

Home sweet home May 5th

Update - I edited my original post. We extended our trip and consolidated our flights which will be great so we dont have to stop in Tokoyo or LA.

THANK YOU!! for all the great information you guys posted below!!
