  1. Foton, I'll start with a double please.

    cschaff, I had the OctoForks in to make sure they would clear the lump. I was using my 16.5 inch KK and there is not a lot of clearance between them and the lump. After I did that I wished I had taken the OF out because I then had to load the hot forks with the meat. I hope I don't make that mistake again. I think my mind was on my new tool and playing with it.
  3. erik, hopefully someone will chime in on their experience.
  4. A quick lunch with some leftover rib meat from yesterday's cook, sweet potato air fries and salad greens from the deck salad bar.
  5. Yes, but along with the fire starters I would use hair dryer, etc. to get it going good and then shut the lid. I would shut the lid to get that draft going from the bottom vent to the upper vent. BTW I would resist opening the lid also until need access.[emoji4]
  6. Probably, only one way to find out for sure just a very thin coat I would say and try it on your grilled cheese sandwich. [emoji16]
  7. Just to add to erik's post. Instead of leaving the lid open shut the lid tight and open up the top draft wide open and that will create a nice draft that should get that fire going.
  8. Thank you very much Bruce, I appreciate your comments a lot. I guess now that you have your hands clean you want to keep them that way, I can under totally.
  9. Very nice assortment, I am thinking the hotter things are maybe the less one eats, if that is so it's a great way to diet.:)
  10. After seeing Aussie's rotisserie rib cook I just had to try it. Normally I would sous vide boneless beef ribs but what the heck it's a nice day and I feel like playing. Camera battery was dead when I put this on the KK so no start pixs. After 6 hours at about 240F it looked like this- Sliced, the meat had a wonderful flavour and it was moist. Thanks for that great idea, Aussie.
  11. I'd like to try that Habanero Death Wish, maybe just once.
  12. FotonDrv, I can see you are having a rough day,

    No no , Tony, I can have a gentle air flow with this thing, total control at the finger tips.:)

    I couldn't resist Syzygies's suggestion of the Milwaukee Compact Blower. He says it is the bomb and I second that. I love the amount of control you have over the air flow, there are 3 speeds and the trigger is a variable control for each of these. This amount of control means that when the sparks start to flow you have fast easy control that will keep the sparks manageable. I suppose this is more important in the 16.5 inch KK which is where I was using the blower. Another benefit is that one can blow the ODK counter clean as well as the floor. There is an extension of about 10 inch with a soft tip and I have that on in the pix but you could take that off it you thought it was too long for the job. It really does just take a few seconds to get a nice fire going. Today I am doing a low temp cook so I don't want a huge fire. Thank you Syzygies.
  15. everything on those plates looks sooooooo tasty.:)
  16. cschaaf, thanks for posting that link. Some great tips there. I have used mayo on buns to toast before but never tried it on the actual meat but I do need to try that.
  17. Aussie, those sure are tasting looking ribs and you have a nice smoke ring on them too. How did you like this method as opposed to the non roti cooks you have done?
  18. That is exactly what I thought Steve as I took the first bite, It melted in my mouth.
  19. Yearning for a little steak so this fit the bill. Plated with spinach right out of deck salad bar, this was the first batch of steamed spinach, some tasty.
  20. Tangles, looks like you are off and running, great first cook and there will be many more to come.
  21. Tangles, your little girl already has it all sized up and stamp of approval given. The KK and your little girl are both gorgeous. Good luck with the first cook and burn in tomorrow.:) Looking forward to seeing the pixs.
