Re: VersaGrill
I can't get a PM to send' date=' Fetz, so I want one too. PM's are just stuck in my Outbox and won't go![/quote']I remember having a similar issue. I may be incorrect but believe I was told messages sit in your outbox until they're read.

Re: Opening Day Babybacks
That makes sense ... I had assumed foil first. I may have to try that approach just to compare. I'm lovin' the no-foil product but who's to say I might not like the foiled boyz more?Thanks
Based on my personal experience. If you like a little tooth be careful with the foil. Not suggesting you can't have tooth, just saying be careful as I've ended up with fall off the bone when using foil.

Re: Limoncello Rosemary
Oh, oh, oh.... Limoncello!! One of my favs!! In fact there's a bottle in the freezer as I write.
One of my favorite resturants, visited often during my numerous trips for work, was in Vicenza, Italy. They offered a home made semi-frozen version of Limoncello that you drank. OMG, was it out of this world. I sure miss those trips.

Re: Can Post more pics now!!
@fcnich. I forgot to tell you, when you use the extruded lump, some folks find that stacking them in the basket with the center hole vertical (like little chimney's) works best.

Re: Firing Up the KK in Long Island
Welcome aboard SmokeInDaEye!! Nice looking cooker, I like the matte black. I couldn't help but notice what looks like a Kingsford emblem above the handle. I know Dennis built some KKs for Kingsford so now I'm curious; did you win it?

Re: Norwegian Meatballs in Dutch Oven

Re: Gas Lighter Useful or Not Worth It? Thank You
Thank you. Do you remove it after the charcoal is lit or leave it in the KK but have it turned off?I see you've made your decision. But, just to follow up I remove burner after lighting the lump. Another reason the burner is so convient in my case is having a NG outlet on my patio with a quick release disconnect. I forgot about not having a tank to deal with.

Re: Norwegian Meatballs in Dutch Oven
Sounds great. I have to try this one too! Especially since I recently found out I'm probably more Norwegian than German! Thanks fcnich!

Re: Using a Dutch Oven (cast iron) on the KK? Anyone use the
Sorry, I can't speak to the enamel finish but, the Lodge cast iron works well for me. I use their dutch ovens and skillets.
@Paswesley - Nice pot!

Re: Low and Slow With Lump Question
Hello Cookie. Been awhile, hope all is well. I'd try a different lump. Sounds like the mangrove lump you're using may not be quite 100% carbonized yet.
Hopefully Nakedwhiz with all his expertise will pop in here with some insight.

Re: Gas Lighter Useful or Not Worth It? Thank You
I have one and love it. Would definitely purchase it again. I only use it to light charcoal. Well that's kind of a lie, I've also been known to start fires with it in my outdoor fireplace. hehe

Re: First and second cooks.
You can get gloves like these locally, or online. I use them to handle hot meat and to move and remove hot grills and thermometer probes:http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000XA ... B000XAL1QE
These aren't leather, but some kind of cloth lined silicone.
I was getting ready to share another idea for handling hot meat / pulling pork (throw away latex gloves over cotton gloves) but, then I realized you included handling hot grills!
WOW! I'm impressed. I won't admit how much I paid for gloves to do that with.

Re: My Steak Technique
Interesting about the salt and rinsing it off. I had not heard that before. Thanks for the tip. I'll have to give that a try.

Re: I'm interviewed about KK on Kingsford's Grilling.com
Great interview, Dennis!! "morally ambiguous" definitely put a grin on my face.

Re: My kk arrived !!
So today for lunch I decided to take Fcnich up on his invite over. Thanks again, fcnich!! You make an awesome BBQ sauce!!! Fcnich is so nice he sent me off with a container full of his own homemade BBQ sauce!! I definitely want the recipe. Perfect timing for the left over Sunday ribs I had for lunch today.
Carter and his wife Sue are a very nice couple in deed. And the KK, OMG, just as everyone says, talk about beautiful, much better in person than in photo. The spring assisted hinge and dome latch are quite impressive features to say the least. And the hole for probe wires, wow, talk about a cool feature. I could go on and on about the covered wheels, SS upper grate with 3/8" tines! (wow, that's some heavy steel), port for Stoker/Guru, how nice the dome/hat mating surfaces meet together, how smooth it turns, etc. features go on and on but, I'll leave it there. I can't give Dennis enough kudos for the quality cooker. Great job Dennis.
The craziest part is 20+ years ago I lived 5 houses up the street from Carter and Sue. I lived there for three years and we never met. Carter did remember my old 1967 lime green Camaro though!! hehe

Re: Foreign objects in lump charcoal
I found a Railroad spike in my last bag of Cowboy!! My biggest concern/unanswered question is; were the creasote loaded railroad ties the spikes are normally pounded into part of the charcoal???

Re: New Leg-less Komodo..
Naked Whiz Table Plans might be a good place to start. http://www.nakedwhiz.com/tableplans/tableplans.htm
I've built covers for some quite fancy renditions of the Whiz's table where folks have incorporated drawers, pull out baskets, exotic wood slab tops, marble inserts, vertical pan slots, cabinet doors, etc.
