  1. Motors.. From looking at the photos of motors online only, it seems that the mounting bracket and drive socket are pretty standardized.
  2. strongly suggest bringing along another set of hands.. I would strongly suggest bringing along another set of hands.. It will just make the loading that much easier. Komodos do a lot of things well but being moved vertically is not one of them..
  3. Boat landed the 20th.. Boat landed the 20th.. 3-4 days for US Customs and the Homeland Security boys 1 day in the warehouse and it's on the road to you..
  4. The Today Show Dry rub I just made up Chris' Today Show dry rub and it was awsome.. When he talks about complex he's serious. The recipe calls for 14 ingredients! I added a half tablespoon of finely ground, very hot, sun dried Thai chilies.. Hey I'm in Asia.. When you taste a pinch it's really multi dimensional! If that makes sense.. I did a 3+ hour brine to plump them up a bit and give them a lil' acidic zing.. 1 quart apple juice or apple cider 2 quarts water 2 cups apple cider vinegar 2 cups coarse salt 2 cups packed brown sugar 1 cup packed palm sugar (3 cups brown sugar ok too) Rinse very well.. • 2 slabs St. Louis-cut pork spareribs • 10 tablespoons dark brown sugar • 3 tablespoons paprika • 1 tablespoon black pepper • 1 tablespoon garlic salt • 2 tablespoons kosher salt • 1 teaspoon chili powder • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano • 1/2 teaspoon rubbed sage • 1/2 teaspoon dried marjoram • 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley • 1/4 teaspoon white pepper • 1/2 teaspoon of finely ground, very hot, sun dried Thai chilies.. My Addition! • 1 cup white vinegar I did not do the vinegar water dip but will next time.. Had a best friend here from Atlanta and neglected to take photos.. But they were more than great..
  5. Target Temp? What's the target temp?
  6. Puurfect answers.. Puurfect answers.. Thanks Jeff You could always hire a crane like this guy did in Holland to get it up to his 5th floor garden.. Need it in your back yard? just lift it up and over the house!
  7. Two Position latch - Closed and Snug! I'm pretty confidant that you did not notice that the latch is a two position latch. When the top is lowered the latch catches and holds in the first position. You then need to firmly press down on the handle and firmly press the latch handle towards the body... This forces the bearing to roll up to the next position on the catch which is very tight and snug... Sorta a cam action..
  8. Yeah that's what I meant uh.. post. I went to Cuba on a missions trip, nothing to do with the missionary position Huh, the missionary position? That was "some kind of missionary position" as in post.. Yeah that's what I meant post, post, post. Yeah missionary posting that's what I meant! But I like the way you think!
  9. BIG THANKS! Three years of wasted time I want to be the first to thank you for all the time and effort you've give to this forum. There is no way the KOmodo or this forum would be where it is today without you.. BIG THANKS!
  10. Thanks Rick.. Thanks Rick.. Live and learn.. Good looking pizza Dave..
  11. Passion / Play! Growing up on the beach in So. CA, I watched the movie "Endless Summer" in the 70's and thought it was the cat's meow to follow summer around the world. After graduating from HS I convinced my parents that a bit of travel would help me grow up before going to college. In I spend 7 months with backpack and surfboard traveling thru the south Pacific and SE Asia by myself.. Caught the travel bug. I lived a couple of years in EU then almost a year in NYC back to LA then ended up shipping my first container from Asia in Aug of '87 By June of '89 U had moved to Indo.. Time flies..
  12. Welcome Home Curly! Hey Curly.. Great to have you back. Word on the street is that you had left the cabin to take some kind of missionary position in Cuba! I still defend the roti for it's self basting capabilities.. It also must heat therefore cook the bird more evenly. The best, most crispy chicken skin I've ever eaten was off rotisseries roadside in Thailand. Even if you turn the bird you still have cooked it from only two directions/positions. Another great trick for breasts is to firmly compress them with your hand just before you put it on. This will make the thickness of the breast more uniform, so it cooks more evenly. Curly's back!
  13. Ahh.. dough at room temp.. Sounds like it was too cold. Did you let the dough come to room temp before using it? The finished picture looks like it tasted pretty good, despite the unconventional shape Ahh.. dough at room temp? Uhh no actually just out of the fridge.. Thanks, I'll give that a try next time. Yes it was very tasty.. No complaints there.. We also used Sai's home made tomato, ground beef and mushroom pasta sauce which is always in bulk in the fridge for the kids.
  14. Inspired by FireMonkey's pizza I actually made this last weekend but just got around to posting.. The Today Show's segment has generated lots of inquiries resulting in record sales.. No complaints but as I handle all inquiries personally, I've been more than swamped. We cut corners a bit and purchased sourdough dough from the bakery at the local market.. This dough seemed to have amazing "memory". When you roll it out.. it slowly shrinks back to it's smaller size.. This was very frustrating.. We also had no peel so if the dough was left too long on the board.. it stuck. We finally managed to get a couple in the Komodo and the results were worth all the work.
  15. Almost all the Komodos on the container arriving June 20th Almost all the Komodos on the container arriving June 20th have the pre installed inducer tubes. From day one the faceplate was designed to use the short inducer tube not the bulkhead tube. Fred gave me the exact diameter for the short inducer tube to "snap" into.. This diameter is CNC (digitally) cut into the faceplate. The earlier faceplate has it's own tube through the refractory material.. it is redundant to use the longer bulkhead tube..
  16. Hit 49 today.. Makes me think that I'm almost an adult.. Another landmark is that I've been in Indonesia for 21 years this month.. Thanks to every one for all you support on the forum and Komodo in general.

  22. Re: inventory and special orders Hello Chuck, Welcome to the forum.. I'll be posting the container being loaded this week today. I ship about one container every 3-4 weeks sometimes a 20' sometimes a 40'. I'm limited to purchasing overruns from the very large tile company so all tiles I've built in the past are not necessarily available. Best to write me and I'll give you call to discuss this.. Thanks for your interest and inquiry...

  24. Don't get any better than that! I can't image better examples/images of the perfect pizza.. I gotta promoting Komodo's pizza making ability.. I gotta loose a few lbs so I can make some pizza like that to eat myself. No way I could only eat a few pieces! Thanks Rick.. You done it again!
  25. Thanks Dave.. Hey Dave.. Great job.. Thanks for everything. That duck looks great.. gotta run one over here and bring it home..
