ck, that steak and lobster both look delicious, nice and moist too.

Cookie, I am so sorry to hear that you lost the roast. A big lesson learned that will serve you well in the future. Next time the roast will be perfect.

Thanks, to all the Tony's out there. I have a big pot of pasta/pizza sauce on the stove as I write. One never wants to be in a position of not having any sauce on hand.

I had to get my strength up for the meatball cook so I made some Buttermilk Pancakes for breakfast. Served with local maple syrup. Now onto the meatballs. 1 pound of 50/50 mix of beef and pork. Added minced garlic, minced onion, salt, pepper, basil, thyme, parmesan cheese, cayenne pepper, milk and bread crumbs. Mix everything together except the meat. Once things are nicely mixed gently add the meat and mix it in. Carefully make the meatballs being careful not to compact. Roll in crumbs and set in the fridge until the grill is up to 350F. Grilled for about 30 mins. until the internal temp. was 162F. Meatballs are done. Plated. The meatballs were tender and moist.

Rak, note the ck said he did a quick sear so I suspect the whole KK was not heat sunk which explains why he was able to drop the temp rather quickly. That's my story and I'm sticking with it.

Yes, best colour right after mine.

It's going to be wonderful.

Croadie, beautiful, and I can't imagine doing the move alone but then again since you rolled it thru the living room and kitchen maybe it was best you were doing it alone. You must feel very satisfied, I know I'd be smiling from ear to ear. You have a wonderful location for your KK, so close to the kitchen. Thanks for posting the arrival shots.

I couldn't resist posting one more EM breakfast. Toasted the bun added lettuce, Canadian bacon and an SV egg. Topped with cheese.

I hope you are not at the end of the delivery line.

Your Peri Peri chicken looks lovely, a tasty meal for sure:)

Welcome, you made quite an entry splash with those wonderful looking cooks. You are probably basking in the sun white I'm here snow blowing. BTW, that vacuum sealer is really going to come in handy, I can't imagine not having one.

That looks so good, I'll take 2 slices please.

That grill is loaded mine will never see that day.

Rak, the baking stone is great for doing pizza or bread baking. It keeps the bottom from burning long enough so the top can get cooked. In the case of English muffins I wanted to cook and brown the bottom and the top, and then cook the whole muffin. That was the main reason to use the Baking Steel and it worked just great. Two other side benefits are the steel heats up faster and it is larger so I can get the whole batch of muffins on at once. I'm going to bake my bread on the KK baking stone. BTW, I think Dennis is working on a steel grate for the KK.

CK, was that a not so suttle hint.

Yes, ck, I did think about that but I have the KK running hotter than 350F getting the steel up to temp. and then I had the top open for quite some time. I suspect it could be done but it simpler to have the oven running and use that. Also I think I'd have to take the steel out or the bottom might get too brown. All in all I wanted to get them in the oven ASAP to continue the bake without cooling too much.

Needed to finish off the Greek yogurt so - First toast the English muffin I can't stop myself, this one has Tony written on it in sriracha sauce. My penmanship lacks definition. All put together. After breakfast I got busy and baked another batch that I started on Mon. Used the Baking Steel on Pebbles, IR said the steel was about 325F so it's ready to bake. Baked one side for 5 mins. turned them over to do the other side. Baked 7 minutes more in a 350F oven. Which one should I eat? This one?

I would love to be on the receiving end of one of those plates.

Gorgeous pixs, look at that sun and clear water and the crowd isn't bad either.

Where have we heard this story before? At least you'll have the whole weekend to get to know your kk.

That would be a nice heatwave for here:)

Rak, you should be ashamed of yourself, sitting in the Jamaican sun while we Canadians are sitting in the snow. Seriously though, I hope you are having a wonderful time, not to worry we'll save some snow for you.

I'll have a huge serving of that dinner, please.

That is the pits, or no pits in this case, but better safe than sorry.
