Syzygies - I'm gonna steal your terra cotta plant saucer idea for my 2nd basket storage. That's an elegant solution! Thanks! Hey, you wouldn't by chance happen to be a math jockey, would you? Have seen that term since my grad school days!

Frogs - that is one sweet looking cook! I love stuffing a pork loin. It lends itself to a whole host of stuffings that can impart a wide range of flavors. Very nicely done! CONGRATS!

That should have been one very interesting cook! I've got a 32 and that would be a couple of cooks on The Beast! Give Isla a Happy Birthday kiss and hug from her OKC, Ok friends!

WIlbur - you got me to thinking ... I'm Catholic and as a Certified Crappie Cruncher, it's not very often that I run into people cooking fish on Friday's anymore. I've gotta get some fish for The Beast and give it a run. I"m thinking some good tuna for a quick sear this coming Friday. I"ll let you know if it comes to fruition by posting pics. And oh, BTW, very nice cook!

I just pile everything on a set of shelves in the garage.

Hi KKers! Dennis, don't you have something like this smoking pot about to be available? Sorry if I jumped the gun on this.

DaveyR - that is one VERY fine looking KK you have there! And I like the way it cooks. You'll absolutely LOVE the CoCoNut extruded charcoal for low-n-slow cooks. Almost no ash, very efficient charcoal. I was amazed at my first few cooks at how good this charcoal really is. I give it 5/5.

Great Shot, Frog! Good to see you here. Your KK looks beautiful with the Broil King in the background. How long until you part company as I did with my Primo?

Well, Robert, it's certainly good to see a friendly Avatar! And YES!, we'll have to liven this good Forum up a bit.

Hey Wilbur! Good to see you here big guy!

Hi KKers! I'm the CeramicChef and have owned and been cooking on "The Beast", a KK BB 32", for about some time now. All I can say is that everyone should have an opportunity to cook on a KK! I've been using kamados for a little over 20 years. I started out on a BGE that eventually got Humptied on move from South Texas to NOLA. It was replaced by a Medium BGE as I was now single and didn't think I'd need as much as a BGE had in terms of grilling space. Then along came the Primo XL and it replaced my Med BGE as my go to grill. It was wrecked by some ne'er do well youths and replaced with another Primo XL. During my Primo years, Dennis introduced the KK BB. I just sat there in my chair slack jawed. I finally decided that I had worked hard all my life and I deserved one. Dennis was gracious enough to ship one my way! I thought I understood all about quality, customer service, etc. Was I ever wrong! The KK BB 32" was beyond anything I ever hoped for. But then, you guys know exactly what I'm talking about. My friends as me to explain why in the world I'd ever spend the kind of money on a kamado that you pay for the KK BB and all I do is smile and tell them they'd never understand until they experience it firsthand. My friends who have cooked on The Beast tell me it's the difference between chicken salad and chicken $41t. The Beast is Black Pebbled ... understated elegance! I thought I had a pic but will post one in a couple of days. So in any event, its good to be aboard and in with you good people. Y'all have a great weekend, kiss that special someone, hug the kids, and make some memories with your KK, family, and friends!
