It was such a quick read that I thought I would cut and paste the article here: (Love the quotes in the 4th - 6th sentences... Spoken like true lawyers Idiots... ) Cookbook pulped over 'ground black people' typo (AP) – Apr 17, 2010 SYDNEY — An Australian publisher is reprinting 7,000 cookbooks over a recipe for pasta with "salt and freshly ground black people." Penguin Group Australia's head of publishing, Bob Sessions, acknowledged the proofreader for the Pasta Bible should have picked up the error, but called it nothing more than a "silly mistake." The "Pasta Bible" recipe for spelt tagliatelle with sardines and prosciutto was supposed to call for black pepper. "We're mortified that this has become an issue of any kind and why anyone would be offended, we don't know," he told The Sydney Morning Herald for a story printed Saturday. "We've said to bookstores that if anyone is small-minded enough to complain about this ... silly mistake, we will happily replace (the book) for them." The reprint will cost Penguin 20,000 Australian dollars ($18,500), but books already in stores will not be recalled because doing so would be "extremely hard," Sessions said. There was no answer at Penguin's offices Sunday. Copyright © 2010 The Associated Press. All rights reserved. Related articles

Susan (All), This was just DJ's experience but I thought it might be relevant to your discussions regarding your choice in Rotis Motors: http://www.komodokamado.com/forum/viewt ... r&start=30 Look for the "Drunk_J" post about half-way down the page when he says he got his rotis and motor. Read all the posts for this page and onto the next page. Good arguments to move away from the battery powered rotis motor and move to the AC Motor (50 lb.) I went this way and have been happy... Hope this helps! (and yes, before anyone posts that this is about the rotis unscrewing - I get that. Just a friendly suggestion from a fellow KK'er about the motor choice)

Whatcha got stuffed in the bird, T? Is that lemon or orange? Good looking cook! Hey, it looks like you upgraded your serving plate!

Heh heh - mine will be coming off the KK in about 2.5 more hours! No baby back today - full rack of spares - big one too - 7lbs! 'scuse me while I go refill my beer....

So, I heard earlier that if I lived right next to the water I would get tired of being able to go prawning, crabbing, fishing etc. Let's take a moment and examine that statement - I love my wife so I married her - that's working out! I love beer so I bought a kegerator - that's working out! I love great smoked/'bbq/rotis food so I bought a KK - that's working out! I'm starting to think that if I lived next to the water where I could fish, crab, prawn, just float and drink beer - Then I would by a boat and everything would work out too!!! Call me crazy, but I don't think I would get tired of it! Nice haul T-Rex! I am quite jealous!

Thanks for nothing Fetz! It's going to take weeks for these burns to heal on the bottoms of my feet now!!!

Heh Heh... Those two ducks would taste mighty fine on on a KK!!! As for the sparrows - don't sweat it. If you have a bird that you prefer to see, lay out the appropriate seed. Ultimately, they will start to nest around your home and you can see the finches more often. As for the "rat" of the bird world, I'm going to have to nominate the pigeon.... or maybe the cowbird...

Keep posting these "first xxxx" stories of success Larry! The pics are always very good and your write-ups match as well! One can never get enough food porn! Also, kudos for not paying attention to the "pop-up" indicator. I can just about guarantee this, if it does pop-up, your dinner is dry! Keep 'em coming! Great job!

Nice pics Larry! I guess it is safe to assume that the butts went on just a few minutes (or several hours!) before the ribs went on??

Nice KK and Congrats!!! Go hit your allergist up for some shots and get cookin'!!!!

C'mon now - you bought a KK - I'll bet Jennifer Aniston doesn't have one!!

I always find it interesting when our KK'ers post pics of their pets, or their kids, inside the KK... what does it mean??? LOL LOL Great looking KK and Congrats!!

You've made the right choice!! Welcome to the KK family!! Looking forward to pics of your first cook!

Great slide show Larry! Pics of the KK and some great food porn!!

Welcome to the forum and Congrats on the new KK!! Please feel free to post a pic so we can see what is on the way to your house!

Excellent work Dennis! Do you know if Kingsford is planning some type of event to unveil the KK's (as in the way OCC unveils bikes for companies or celebrities)? Or maybe they are for employee recognition? Give us the deets! A dozen KK's is a great order - you must be very proud!

Welcome vkl! I found that buying toys for the homecoming of my KK helped to pass the time! Of course, with owning a Kamado, at least you can cook until your new KK shows up! Do you have a picture of your existing cooker that you can share?

I like seeing cooks like this on the forum. A little "out of the box" cook that I am sure paid off! Looks great Larry and I think I will give that one a shot!

Bark burns fast... If your smokewood is dried, just add the amount of chunks you want with the bark on when you light your KK. By the time you come up to temp and heat-soak a bit, the bark will be burned off and you will be smoking with the light blue-grey translucent smoke that is perfect for BBQ!

Nice find FM! I would actually wish for my old Weber grate to die just to have an excuse to buy these. Very innovative -

Larry - I wouldn't count on that hotspot being in the back of your KK moving forward. Often times, a hotspot is just the nature of that particular load of lump. I have moved my guru temp probe all around the cooking area and very rarely do I find a cooler or hotter spot. Make sure that after you load your lump to pick up the basket by the handles and give it a couple of good shakes to settle all the lump evenly. You should get very consistent results using this method.

Um, Er, Uh, - Yeh, I got nothing... So, does this mean that Sanny, Susan, Theresa, Jackie, etc. must be dressed in a certain fashion before visiting the Naked Whiz website???

I always enjoy hearing about folks that honor our Vets. Thanks for recognizing this man for both his birthday and his contributions Sanny! Mom looks great too!

Thanks for the education on prawns and the pics T-Rex!!! Good stuff!!
