I think you are right.
-
I wished I could see one...but I took everyone's word for it. Funny thing is the guy has never cooked on any kamado.
-
Hahaha it's a terrible affliction!
-
That looks like a way better version than what I am used to.

Wait until you see how much moisture you get in your chicken. It is insane.
-
This was an insane cook. I wonder if I will ever be able to pull anything off like this? Major props to you.

My youngest (2) is fairly adventurous in his willingness to try new things....however his tastes are not nearly as adventurous as his brother`s. That's ok though. We just tell them both they have to try everything (even one bite) and they can't say that something is disgusting. It's really weird because I didn't even like blue cheese until after I had my first child and had them paired with strawberries. I just kept trying it and then one day it clicked! Hopefully my youngest will get a little more adventurous with time. It's ok if he doesn't as well.

Also, I am honored that your daughter wants my food!

My oldest son is such an adventurous eater! He loves pickled cow's tongue, will eat tons of blue cheese, loves mussels, clams, squid, and any kind of fish I can get a hold of. Oddly enough, it wasn't until recently that he started liking eggs!

The funny thing is I NEVER had this growing up. This is now one of my favorites as a grown up!

My 6 year old had to go to the dentist for some work to get done and wasn't feeling the best afterwards. He asks for homemade Mac and cheese and ham. Then he specifies it has to be on the koko kamado. Hahaha. bacon because, why not.cooked down the onion, mustard powder, dash of cayenne and of course salt and pepper. Garlic right at the end.bechamel.plus cheese and noodles, first layer.layer if the weirdest smoked gouda I have ever seen (my husband went grocery shopping for me) plus bacon.on koko. On goes the ham steak plus ingredients for the smoked salsa that I made for dinner the next day (today). What the Mac and cheese looked like. BTW, I opted not to do a bread crumb layer because it's good the first time you have it but always seems kinda soggy in left overs. This worked out well with extra cheddar on top. My plate with a simple side salad and ham topped with my favorite whole grain mustard. (my son is nuts for the stuff too) He had two huge helpings and that it is what he wants for his birthday dinner. It's a win in my book.

So the other night I made a brisket and naturally I had some friends over to help me eat it. One of my friends hadn't seen my kk yet, and I asked him if he wanted to see it. We went outside and he couldn't believe it! He started taking pictures and asking to look inside it and sending them to his other friend. Throughout the night he kept just touching it. Its pretty funny. Anyway my husband was over this afternoon at his house and I guess he said he had a few projects to finish first but he is now thinking about eventually getting one of his own. Just goes to show you what an impact actually touching one of these grills can have.

Yup, that is the price I got mine for. As soon as I heard how cheap it was, I tried to get to Costco as fast as I could without being too pushy lol.

Thanks! Love the boom!
-
Yessssss. But I actually think I prefer the regular brisket. I eat most of it with almost no or no sauc e, so I think that's why.
-
Thank you very much. Big hunks of meat are great for a crowd. Much better than trying to grill for a crowd, if you ask me.
-
Brisket is great for entertaining! And I love using the leftovers to make comepletely different dishes that taste like I spent all day on them due to the brisket.
-
Thank you.
-
Thanks! I'm finding that I get more confidence over time. Hopefully I can attain guru status in a few years haha.

I use the deflector as a baking stone...not sure if they are the same thickness or not.
-
Thank you. I guess it could be interpreted as artsy if I squint.
-
Thank you!

Someone in KG posted this salad and I knew my kids would go nuts for it. It is pretty tasty!

I am normally a proponent of changing one variable at a time when perfecting a recipe...and having a KK had been that variable for most of my recent cooks. That being said, the price of brisket at my local Wal-Mart has been steadily climbing...not to mention none of them have any lump charcoal at all all of the sudden. My sister in law agreed to meet me at Costco and I picked up my first prime brisket. I trimmed and seasoned it like I normally would. I let it sit during the day in the fridge. Then I started my fire, set my vents and went to sprouts for some abt ingredients. I put it on about 11. I'm sorry no actual cook pictures. Pulled it at about 3:30 pm because it was probing like butter. Let it rest for an hour and took a small potion of the point because I wanted to re attempt burnt ends. Cubed it up. I tried to go sparingly in the bbq sauce (last time I had too much), then added rub. Mixed it all up and the onto the kk above the ABTs. (i can't believe I have only made ABTs 2 times. They are so Flippen good And gone in about 5 minutes) After about an hour (stirring every 20 min or so) this is what they looked like. We smacked on those and the ABTs while we waited for the last family to arrive. Then I sliced up the brisket. I didn't take pictures. I know, I know, bad shuley. It had the same bark as the outside of the point. Noticing the distribution of the day in the point, it seemed much more even than my previous briskets. When slicing the flat, I was a little disappointed because it APPEARED the same as my previous cooks. Luckily I still had some because it was definitely more tender and more moist as well. The biggest difference was how much more tender than my previous flats have been. Obviously, it wasn't as tender as my point but it was pretty dang tender. Definitely my best brisket to date. Also, I was so much better about the over night thing this time. Much more confident in my settings. I only went to bed 1 hour later than normal and I only woke up once to peek at my remote thermometer. Progress!
