Thanks for the bolt idea...............I already decided that the flour/paste method was not for me. I can't keep the lump dust off my body.....can you imagine what I would look like trying to put paste around the lid of a dutch oven

The two qt. pot looked a tad too big for the 19" charcoal basket...................(precise eye ball measurement )

The last time Bosco picked up smoking wood in the USA it had a huge spider in the pile, He saw it while he was driving home and about jumped out his truck going 100 Km/hr. I think he flashed his special deputy dog undercover badge to get across the border with that wood.

I ordered my 1 qt. CI dutch oven today..............one more fun toy to play with!!!!!!

Or send it to me and I will drop it off on my way thru. Save you a trip to the PO box in Buffalo/Niagara Falls

Very nice first cook........................know it was for the pictures but no more peeking and letting the moisture out

Went to one in downtown Columbus, OH years ago..................was great fun. We were able to walk from turn to turn and see the whole course.

Sorry Joe.....didn't mean to hijack your post.......it just brought memories. Jon

As a kid, a buddy and I used to go rabbit hunting in the snow with his grandfather...........rabbit was one of the grandfathers favorite dishes. Used to chase them on foot until they dove into the snow and then pull them out backwards. Thinking your "rabbitry" is much easier method to come by rabbits!!!! Interesting post...thanks!

Congratulations!!!! One suggestion on your first cook on a kamado cooker.............let your temps build slowly by controlling the vents. You don't want to overshoot the desired cooking temp, as it will take a long time to bring back down. Start with minimal vent openings and open slowly. Be sure to fill the charcoal basket to the top. Good luck and have fun!!!!!!

I'm really liking that charcoal basket splitter!!!!!!!!

Where is Buddy's Pizza located? I'm going to see my Michigan family this weekend and plan to ask them out of curiosity.

Born and raised in Detroit and never heard of "Detroit Style" pizza??????????

Yesterday we reserve a table for 12 at a local cancer fund raiser Clam Bake, that we attend every year. It the spirit of the event we buy 50/50 tickets and also bid on prize packages. At the end of the afternoon they start the drawing for the prize winners. Much to the delight of my buddies....................The guy with way too many grills, wins the BBQ basket prize...complete with the midget - fake Weber Kettle!!!!!!! It will become a flower planter next year!!!!!!!!!

Tony b - Love that Iowa sweet corn though.......................................

You can do a burn in anytime..............fire that baby up and cook up something good for Dee!!!!!!!! PS - Have a cold one for all of us mates working now (and wishing we were there)

Thanks for sharing your fun.........Like Bosco said before, it never gets old watching the delivery & unpacking!!!! I was smiling the whole time I was looking at your photos ! Too much fun!! Congratulations and enjoy!!!

Tried to out smart the problem.....................I opened the lid and rotated the tool hanging bracket all the way up. I was able to hang the shelf but then couldn't close the lid.

This is a picture of the tool hanging bracket that needs to come off to hang the shelves like Bruce did.

Last night I tried to hang mine on the side of the 19" TT. If I would have removed the U-shaped, pivoting, accessory hanging bracket, they would have fit no problem into the tubes on the side of the grill. I also have the rotisserie motor bracket mounted under the side table. That would have to come off also to hang the shelf vertical on the side of the cooker.

Maybe it should be...........Be square or you're not there.

Went out to dinner with some friends last night. Ordered cheese quesadillas. They were stuffed with diced tomatoes............I almost ordered something else but thought.....If Mac can do it, so can I !!!!! I still don't like tomatoes

Wonderful summer garden pictures MacKenzie!!!!! Our garden at the cottage was decimated by deer, silly rabbits, and squirrels. Fortunately for us, we have bunch of Wegman's in town!!!! Wonderful veggie dept. Check it out!!!!

Be there and be square!!!!!!

You did one heck of a lot of work in one day!!!!! Grill looks great on your patio and your first cook was really fine looking also. Congratulations and have fun learning the grill........................cooking even more good food!
