I use espresso in rubs on occasion too but the coffee beans would make a kewl experiment. Next Low-n-slow I'll give it a try and report back the results. Charles - Prometheus 16.5", Cassiopeia 19" TT

Nice. Great looking chicken too. Charles - Prometheus 16.5", Cassiopeia 19" TT

Had to make up for tony b's laziness to give you all something to see. While Mrs skreef was using Cassiopeia I fired up Prometheus for some of these potatoes. I followed the directions he posted. Nice soft inside with a slightly crisp but not overly done skin. Just enough residual salt so I didn't feel the need to add more. Will use this method in the future for "oven" baked potatoes - LOL First picture is just before I pulled them after the oil cook. Charles - Prometheus 16.5", Cassiopeia 19" TT

No - not coffee under tones - a nice subtle smoke but not coffee. Just like Apple tree lump won't taste like apples. Same applies to smoking wood chunks. Peach tree smoking wood doesn't smell (or taste) like peaches. Same holds true across the board in both smoking chunks and lump. One day I'm going to make a foil pouch filled with coffee beans (put onto hot coals) and see/taste what happens. Charles - Prometheus 16.5", Cassiopeia 19" TT

LOL - give up the blankie ........... Charles - Prometheus 16.5", Cassiopeia 19" TT

tony b You had a lot of spelling mistakes in your last post. Shouldn't "oven" be spelled "kamado" Charles - Prometheus 16.5", Cassiopeia 19" TT

Good story, glad it had a happy ending. So far I'm had very stable results with using just the vents. Doubt I'll ever spend the money on a controller. Charles - Prometheus 16.5", Cassiopeia 19" TT

Great post bosco. I think we all felt that way at some point. Some more than others but all of us to some degree. Charles - Prometheus 16.5", Cassiopeia 19" TT

Sorry should have said it ........ A thin piece of sheet metal. Charles - Prometheus 16.5", Cassiopeia 19" TT

Pig on pig - is there any other way to roll? I'm really enjoying it Rakesh. A few more killer cooks to go before we're out. TY once again. Charles - Prometheus 16.5", Cassiopeia 19" TT

I would but it might get a little cold on that long trip. Charles - Prometheus 16.5", Cassiopeia 19" TT

It's sort of sad when you actually get excited about finding Junk in your bag of lump ......... LOL B&B Oak This piece makes up for it a little bit anyway. Charles - Prometheus 16.5", Cassiopeia 19" TT

Me too. Right now I'm using my 16.5" in the 19. It'll be nice to have both. Charles - Prometheus 16.5", Cassiopeia 19" TT

At this point the only time I like using the stone is if I'm doing a mid temp baking type cook where I'm not using the baking stone. All other indirect cooks (low or high temp) I'll use the double bottom drip pan as a heat deflector. Sometimes if a piece or two of lump sticks up so it doesn't sit flat I don't worry about it. I put the drip pan in anyway and as the lump burns down the pan will settle down onto the handles. Charles - Prometheus 16.5", Cassiopeia 19" TT

Looks good. I'm sure it will be a hit. Charles - Prometheus 16.5", Cassiopeia 19" TT

Very exciting so far. Can't wait to see more. Charles - Prometheus 16.5", Cassiopeia 19" TT

Sunday was in the mid 70's. Out riding the motorcycle. Forecast for Christmas is mid 60's. Charles - Prometheus 16.5", Cassiopeia 19" TT

Considering I like full skin mashed potatoes (sometimes I leave them a little chunky) not sure if this would appeal to me either. Charles - Prometheus 16.5", Cassiopeia 19" TT

Looks like you got your work cut out for you. Charles - Prometheus 16.5", Cassiopeia 19" TT

Country ribs looking good. Charles - Prometheus 16.5", Cassiopeia 19" TT

Can't wait to see some pictures of it in it's new home. Charles - Prometheus 16.5", Cassiopeia 19" TT

Great cook bosco. Love the loaded kamado picture. Charles - Prometheus 16.5", Cassiopeia 19" TT

On more than one occasion I've thought about getting a really big needle and sew it shut with butchers twine. Toothpicks are good but I think sewing would be better. If I pocket from the end the problem is much smaller. Charles - Prometheus 16.5", Cassiopeia 19" TT

It was good but it'll be better next time. Charles - Prometheus 16.5", Cassiopeia 19" TT

I really need to get some. I hate when stuffing/cheese oozes out. Charles - Prometheus 16.5", Cassiopeia 19" TT
