    Steak night

    Dennis, MacKenzie was talking about holding a Sous Vide, Baking and Photography class in the middle of February in the great northeast tundra of Canada. Other things you will learn & experience: - How to properly shovel snow from around your KK, - Experience that -40* Fahrenheit is the same as -40 Celsius - How to hitch up the dog sled to go buy lump - How to defrost a bird bath and beer in -40* weather - Proper deck shoveling methods - How to properly heat soak a KK in -40* weather in your slippers - Proper camera settings for white out conditions - Snowboarding into town behind the mail jeep/half-track - How to shovel 5 feet of snow from the roof while cooking on the KK. I know she would love to have you come and speak to the group!! We could make it the first annual KK owners meeting.

    Did you order a heated cover from Dennis???? (Oh man....Bosco would be mad if you did ) I'm thinking the cover will be the same temp as the outside air and offer little temp protection to the thermometer. Moisture protection....yes, but I would still bring in the thermometer in on super cold nights to protect it's calibration. Gee.........I thought all Northern KK owners kept their beloved cooker in a heated garage like Mac the 19" TT...................Ha!!!!!!
  21. PRippley, That was a sweet deal and it looks like a decent little cooker. Like the wood side shelves!!! We do a lot of camping and cooking on the boat. We have used a Weber Q with the 1# propane cylinders, works great but it has a good size foot print and can be hard to store at times. Not a good smoker or low & slow grill. Bought a Weber Char Q before they stopped making them. It can burn lump charcoal and is a decent smoker. You can cook direct & indirect.... but low & slow is out of the question. Again it has a big foot print for storage. Tried the Cook Air Wood Fired Grill also. Small & compact, great for searing and getting some wood smoke but that is about it. Then we tried the Cobb Grill . It is about the same size as your new Vision P. It is the most versatile camping grill we have. Small foot print, light weight, can grill & smoke, uses a small amount of charcoal (can use CoCo Char but not lump - melted the plastic ring), you can do a limited low & slow by controlling the amount charcoal (but needs to be replenished). When the Joe Jr. came out, I bought one of those to take camping. Does a nice job (13.5" grate) but is expensive and a little heavy to be carrying down the catwalks. When we are not traveling very far, we sometimes throw it on the front of the boat and tie it down but never bring it into the boat to store away. Anyway the point I'm getting at, is...............when camping and when you don't have a huge amount of space.....I'm not sure there is one perfect grill. Lord knows, we have tried!!! Your little Vision may not be big but it will do almost everything you might desire...just on a smaller scale. On the similar sized Cobb, we have figured out how to cook in shifts, bought & modified cooking racks, bought special tools to add charcoal, small tins for heat deflectors, even have a special basket for cooking shrimp & scallops, etc. Most of it fits into its carrying case and one small box. I'm guessing by the time your done experimenting with your Kub, it going to end up being your best camping grill!!!! Don't give up on it.
  22. I do remember the crazy cold weather in Iowa....................please keep it there! My memory still serves me well!!!!!!
  23. The only problem I have with the Guru forum is that there are so many posts & content on the site.......that if you don't check it a few times everyday, it is difficult to keep up with all the great information. I know.........wonderful problem to have!!!!!
