  1. No offense to Humphreys, as they were once the only adapter available for the Billows fan to our KKs, but ThermoWorks offers a adapter to fit their fan to the guru port (https://www.thermoworks.com/billows-mounting-kit/) for $8.99 (versus the $34.95 Humphrey's version). I've used it for 1 1/2 years with no problem.
  2. Darn it, @MacKenzie! That video is just cruel! 😉
  3. Great looking meal! Always good to hide the wine empties; very professional! That way, you can sneak in another bottle(s) with none the wiser.
  4. I was at the Wiener Kitchen last Saturday to pick up some various sausages and the owner/suasage maker happened to be running the counter. I asked him about hot links as my previous source had dried up after the local market was bought out by an outfit from Nebraska. After some discussion about what characteristics of my ideal hot link would contain, he said he would give it a try next production day (Tuesday). Sure enough, he texted me Thursday to say they were ready. Smoked with hickory for 2 1/2 hours at 200°F dome to internal temp of 177°F. Wiener Kitchen Hot Links Very tasty: nice casing pop, good mouth feel, and just the right amount of heat.
  5. @Basher, Speaking of getting your BBQs back, what's the status of the remodel?
  6. @MacKenzie, I'll eat the fish if you will eat the quinoa!
  7. You still have the touch. Great looking pizzas!
  8. Beautiful patio and walkway. Made better by the gorgeous KK in the corner!
  9. @Troble I like living in the midwest but, boy howdy, I would love to be able to start a sentence with: So I joined the monthly club at my wagyu butcher.
  10. What do you do with the other 199 wine corks?
  11. I have a 16TT and a 23KK. The 23KK is much more flexible to cook about anything. My 16KK (older style, not the newer high top) is pretty much used just for grilling, although I have smoked some salmon on it. I agree with @tekobo about the 23 versus the 22, if that is your size range. When I bought the 23KK, I was torn between the 32KK and the 23KK. I bought the 23KK simply because its location was to be quite a way from the driveway and I was concerned about being able to move the 32KK there. Knowing what I now know, I would have bought the 32KK as it is relatively easy to roll them across the lawn using plywood. I would still also get the 16KK. They are great for daily use. The best advice it to listen to @tekobo. You can't really choose wrong with any KK.
  12. I actually think the hardest part is when the driver puts your crate and pallet jack on the truck lift gate, which tilts toward the sure and certain destruction of your Komodo Kamado as it lowers to the ground. That 30 seconds seems like weeks.
  13. Now you're talkin'!
  14. Mine is wine, guitars, and woodworking hand tools... After all, as @tony b always says, "Welcome to the Obsession."
  15. Our 6 month old Maine Coon kitten decided the space under the 16KK makes an excellent observation post:
  16. I had to look up Lancelot Link. A little after my time as a kid...
  17. We had been out of town for a week so decided on pork chops for relatively easy dinner. Monster rib chops were available so I used a Jamaican dry jerk rub along with roasted brussels sprouts and mashed potatoes with mushroom gravy. The cast iron pan is a 12" Lodge, for comparison:
  18. @tekobo, I completely understand @Sharky’s distraction. Good edit, @Poochie.
  19. Beautiful, indeed. We raised black Angus cattle for a long time until finally long-distance farming became too much. We now just lease part to a neighbor (and watch his cattle graze).
