  1. HalfSmoke, that pizza is looking great. I bet it tasted wonderful too.
  2. One thing I never do is put smoking wood in with chicken. I find it sucks up smoke like a sponge and over powers the chicken. So today I added a little cherry wood to the smoking pot and went for it. First marinated teh thighs in Frank's Hot Sauce for a few hours then put them on the grill. Ran the KK at 330F for about 45 mins until the internal temp was just about 180F. Added the only cob of corn that was left. And under the skin, the moisture ran out, it was amazing. The corn. The first bite of the chicken I thought not sure I like this smoke flavour. I probably ate a little of the skin in that bite but after that I never notice it and the chicken was wonderful. Tomorrow I'll take a look inside the pot. One thing I did today was seal the edge with a flour mixture. It was long before I noticed a burning flour smell and figured the chicken will be ruined. Next time I'll put the smoking pot on earlier and I hope to avoid the burnt flour smell.
  3. It's a beauty, isn't it.:)
  4. Aussie, there's another one of your very tasty cooks.
  5. Steve, oh my goodness, what a beautiful meal, moist and oozing flavour.
  6. Shuley, I agree, it is hard for me to pin point the flavour of the smoke but I do like it as well as the colour it gives. Aussie, I do like my fruits and veggies.:)
  7. Thanks, tinyfish. I should have done what you did. I did rescue the ribs with an overnighter in the sous vide bath set at 148F. They are now beautiful in taste and texture, just in time for breakfast.;) Let's start with the fried egg- Slice up some of the beef rib- Plate it all.

  9. Syzygies pot worked great lots of smoke on the meat and it was perfect BUT my meat was not as tender as I would like. The cure is in the works. The leftover pieces are in the sous vide bath and that should tenderize those ribs.:) The ribs were on the grill for about 3 1/2 hours then wrapped for an hour. Here they are just before wrapping. Lots of smoke colour. Ready to serve. Plated. The ribs tasted great and had great colour but they were not as tender as I would like so the remainder of the ribs are in the sous vide bath. That should make them more tender. The flavour was fine just needed some tenderizing.
  10. Maybe your buddie was cooking on a gasser or a ceramic grill but this refractory cement cooker does not dry things out.[emoji3] Sent from my SM-G930W8 using Tapatalk
  11. Stile, put it off for a long time. We'll see how it goes in a few hours. Sent from my SM-G930W8 using Tapatalk
  12. Thanks, Steve. I hope I don't have to eat the cherry wood.[emoji23] Sent from my SM-G930W8 using Tapatalk
  13. Thank goodness my pot arrived just in the nick of time. I was feeling rather down but now I'm feeling pretty good. That sweet smoke is awesome, it's my first experience and I'm having a nice mellow time of it all right now. Earlier I had started my fire and was getting ready to put the meat on the grill when the big brown truck rolled up. I'm sure I had that pot out of the wrapping before the truck was out the driveway. Ran to the garage got out the bit and drill. It was amazing how easy it was to drill those 3 little holes. Added some cheery wood that I've had for a few years and put the whole thing in the KK. The sweet smell of cherry wood is wafting around my ODK. More pixs later.:)
  14. , I'll keep trying Tony. I have 2 or 3 other flavours from Fallot but I've never seen the bucket at my shop.
  15. Welcome, Eric.[emoji4] No water tray is necessary for your planned cook and just wait until you do chicken, it will be the moisten chicken you gave ever cooked. [emoji4] We'd love to see pics of your grill and your cooks.[emoji38] Sent from my SM-G930W8 using Tapatalk
  16. Thanks guys. @ck, it is a grainy mustard, that I buy at a specialty shop. I like it a lot and always have it on hand. It is a product from France and here is their web site link. http://www.fallot.com/en/nos-produits/
  17. I was sure that I was going to have a pot smoking time today but due to a mess up in the delivery all I had was a regular dinner with no pot. These sausages are large so only grilled two and didn't take any grill shots. Grilled some mild Italian sausages today for dinner and make some pasta to go with it all. Grilled beets and tomatoes from the garden for sides. The package said Mild Italian so I thought they might be quite flat tasting but no they were very good and I'd buy them again.
  18. Apple and pork go together like a horse and carriage. Good stuff, Aussie.
  19. Things are certainly looking flavourful, I love peaches and those caught my eye.
  20. Steve, that sure looks like a very tasty meal, perfect.
