  1. Great Site.. Thanks VERY BIG! Argh.. Makes me realize what I can't get here.. Great site, thanks Ann... I'm loosing sleep thinking about how many new flavors I can get into a big $150 box at this place.. I bet it will also raise the brows of the customs agents here.. Gotta build a spice rack for their tubs.. Thanks again..
  2. Grand prize for their big competition this summer.. From what I understand many of them will be to perks/for employee recognition, one of them is for Chris Lilly, one for their headquarters and one will be part of the grand prize for their big competition this summer.. http://www.kingsford.com/competition/competitions.php I hope I'm not giving out secret information.. Yes very proud to be the Charcoal BBQ of Choice by the Largest Charcoal Company in the world.. They will carbonize a million tons of wood this year.. try to wrap your brain around that number...
  3. I just shipped a dozen Gen IIs for Kingsford.. Four of them were custom tiled with tiles to match their bag. The nameplate was CNC cut and then the individual pieces painted and reassembled. I'm very pleased with them to say the least..
  4. I got the scoop from Sai.. So Sai told me exactly how it's done.. First the chicken is stuffed with herbs and tied up.. Then it's set on a beer can half full of beer. Chicken is set on the ground and a metal bucket placed over it. Rice straw is placed around it and lit.. Straw is added during the cook which lasts 20-30 minutes.. It is not pre cooked.. There you go.. Right from the (Thai) horses mouth.. If she reads that I'm done..
  5. Rice hulls are also great for smoking chicken and fish.. The famous make a huge pile of rice straw over a tim bucket with the chicken inside and light it way.. burns VERY hot and 15 or so minutes later you have a very crispy bird inside.. I think they pre boil them a little bit.. Actually has a great smoky flavor.. Rice hulls are also great for smoking chicken and fish..
  6. You have an '06 Supreme OTB with only a 1/4" main grill for a while there I thought I was a man alone upon an island! There are a couple of other issues here.. You have an '06 Supreme OTB this came with only a 1/4" main grill.. Today all KKs come with three layers of 3/8" grills.. 3/8" rod is 66% more volume than the 1/4" rod.. so for searing you have much more heat which cools much slower and heat soaks much faster.. When the big bad 3/8" upper/sear grill combo is reversed and put down above the coals believe me you have no problem getting grill lines.. At 600º dome it's way over a 1000º down there.. better be using long gloves as fat flare ups can be absolutely dangerous.. I'll have more of those big bad 3/8" upper grills. Give one a spin and then get back to me..
  7. Re: Bhut Jolokia I bought both the seeds and dried chilies about a year and a half ago.. Sai actually ate one of the dried ones straight two different times and said the experience was very "special" and I definitely should not try it.. Something ate the starters.. It's great for adding to oil.. gives off a very smooth deep, beautiful heat.
  8. never been called the manufacturer! Yeowch.. never been called the manufacturer! The walls are just 3/4" of dense refractory hot face compared to more than 21/2" firebox which can expand and contract freely up to 1,500º in the charcoal.. The done temp is a far cry from the actual heat down in the raging charcoal.
  9. Please keep your charcoal inside the firebox Please keep your charcoal inside the firebox.. The firebox is designed for the extreme high temps that charcoal gives off.. Put your charcoal inside the basket and grill on that webber gill.. That should be plenty hot..
  10. Please keep your charcoal inside the firebox Please keep your charcoal inside the firebox.. The firebox is designed for the extreme high temps that charcoal gives off.. If you want to put something inside the basket that's fine but please keep it all inside the firebox.
  11. Lookin' Good.. I have not done the glaze for a while but I really like it.. These shots remind me why. I used to mix a lil bit of apple juice, white vinegar and maple syrup together and paint it on in the last stretch.. But those ribs look great.. Next time you need to try a lil brining before makes them Uber juicy..
  12. Nice to have the Curmudgeon back! Thanks for dropping in Mr G
  13. I always with the war.. I'd surrender the plate and let her win this one.. My philosophy is to let my lady win most of the little battles.. so long as I always with the war..
  14. Ever seem them growing? How cool is this?
  15. Siamese cats.. My significant other is from Thailand.. So I've seen a lot of Siamese cats but those are amazing.. Are their eyes that blue in person? Absolutely beautiful..
  16. Re: First KK Ribeye Success! Love to hear it..
  17. Using your indirect heat effectively.. May I make a suggestion.. Rather than crowd the lower grill and place ribs above the outside of the drip pan in the semi-direct heat zone, try to place all your meat/ribs above the drip pan's shielded area and then use the upper grill for the balance of your meat. You will find your meat is cooked more uniformly. The very edges of the grill outside the drip pan will have more airflow and be a bit hotter.. Best to always put the thickest part of your meat on the edges if possible as opposed to the thinest part which needs less heat to finish at the same time. Just a minor adjustment for more consistent results..
  18. Re: Dennis you still making flooring? Absolutely.. Still my core business.. Waiting for the deposit $$ for a 80,000sq' hotel job in the Maldives.. But I'm dreaming of the day I'm selling enough KKs to stop working in wood. 22 years is enough..
  19. Re: Prawning 101 We don't have any Gestapo like Admins or moderators here.. Feel free to talk about all the wanna be competitor ceramics.. comparisons welcome and even encouraged.. We do not talk about religion, politics or Richard Johnson's activities.. (builder of the portland cement POSK)

  21. Spell checks shortcomings.. I obviously need a spellchecker that proof reads to ensure my typos are not real words.. Good call on the wife's rings and stuff like that..
  22. I did.. I thought it warranted it's own life.. I also want to know how one goes pawning..
  23. Re: My thought for the day...... That's because you still have your teeth! The day will come when you may/will want your food a bit mushy. Or maybe not..
  24. Re: mysterious Oddly trimmed piggy ribs.. Looking pretty good as well..
