  1. Here's one that puts all the others to bed. I use one of these without kindling to start my stick burner and without any smalls . I also use this cut in thirds in my Harmon home pellet stove dropped into the firebox because it's better and quicker than than the electronic ignition. I used Rutland in the past but since I found these I find them quicker, longer burning and harder to extinguish. They do have a sealed in accelerant but it burns off quickly and doesn't impart any off flavor to your coals. Safe to use with charcoal as written on the box, might be worth a look
  2. Wish I could help you Pequod but your 600 miles away. I was looking around and found the bottom piece intact in a pile of brush and coincidently in good shape and the ramp was over on the other side of the yard still intact. Yesterday I burned the top. Yes, those measurements are spot on for the 23. Looks like the tools will be coming out. Here's a pic of the bottom if it helps
  3. Pretty Viking don't you think...........................................................Kirk Douglas
  4. Noticed that not much exchange was in flavor so I decided to do the unfathomable and burn my KK shipping crate. Well, over the past few years since I recieved my KK I stored the remanants of my KK shipment in the lower 40 of my backyard. That's the lower 40 sq feet, and as time progressed opposition arose to having a piece of junk hanging around. I tried as long as possible { 2+ yrs} to save this important artifact unfortunately, time and acid rain became my enemy. Recently, while out in the yard I approached one piece and wanted to change it's location,...it crumbled in my grasp. Geez, I was devastated, as you could imagine.....life goes on
  5. Clever Aussie. Summer is coming to Australia soon enough and once it arrives I heard it's SO hot downunder that you can cook your pizza on the hood of your car. Oh, great looking pizza
  6. Say it ain't so Joe not here in good ol'America. You know just about everything should have a disclaimer and a buyer beware notice on it. Have you ever looked at all natural fruit drinks. The packaging leads you to believe it was squeezed an hour ago. It'll say 100% juice in bold letters and down a little on the package it'll say a flavored blend of these juices from concentrate with other natural flavors and ingredients. We are all conditioned enough now to believe that it's not true and what the package states doesn't necessarily mean that is what's inside. I have suspicion the plaintiff may be a lawyer looking for a quick settlement. Heck, you know and I know the Easter Bunny ain't real but, Santa, he's a definite. It's kind of like the vegan whopper, if it taste like a burger..must be a burger. I got a stick burner, my condolences to all you pellet burners
  7. How true. There was a time in college as I remember late at night you just couldn't get enough of it. Musta turned the corner cause I can't find that restaurant anywhere
  8. Don't linger to long down in that hole, someone may say, "Off with their head". Not to shoot myself in the foot but the Chinese call it sweet and sour sauce. However I like the neighborhood your in, it's sweeter and refined. Possibly a side with lamb, just thinking.
  9. Like Ma and Pa Kettle said above but y'all know the truth. Yep, it was Ckreef.....he disappeared late at nite and rain danced all over the back yard lawn continually hooping and hoolering some Southern mumbo jumbo and.... then it rained. Or at least he thought so until he turned round and saw Mrs Ckreef by the spicket working the backyard sprinkler.
  10. If George had children my guess would be they didn't have the same interest or drive to continue on or maybe he had none and that would be self-explanatory. History leads you to believe that when a larger company absorbs a smaller the quality and service begin to suffer. For the sake of those employees remaining,. I wish them well, it is a scary feeling. As you, I have a Primo also, I have kept it and use it sparingly and begrudgingly for obvious reason. Tomorrow's another day....maybe I'll slap some wings on tonite in honor of George
  11. So I inquired at the local supermarket and found that they have the piece generally running in the 18-20 lb size for $3.99/lb. For something on this scale you really have to have a few hungry appetites around to consume it. A holiday cook for sure
  12. Good job. Must have put some smoke on it by way of the nice ring circling the meat. Will have my eyes open for a piece like. Thanks for the vid, the only thing I may have done differently was to put the meat into a tin with a liquid like broth and worcestershire and cover for some gravy fixins. But that's just fine the way it is
  13. My wife came home and gave me a tube of something. Hey, Sweety what's this? You needed some underwear right? It comes in tubes??
  14. Oh it definitely does, just for the sinners and of course we never tell, we only offer a white lie. And you know those don't count
  15. If you reverse the polarity the motor will turn in the opposite direction,,,,,,,,,,,,never ventured that far, thought it might make me dizzey. That must be a relay down under of what your describing and a plus to boot, wish I had it.
  16. Hey Ckreef, I opened my frig door and this guy with tomato eyes jumped out at me. If it weren't for my advanced Italian training I think he may have got the best of me. What you think.........take him for a long ride or roast the poor fella, you tell me. I think he's a little anemic...at least that's what it said on his shirt, "thin crust".
  17. You must have an AC/DC motor, hah just kiddin,,,an Australian joke. Funny you mention that condition, while your making the adjustments the grill coals are firing up and your like one of the Three Stooges working like a mad man trying to get it off. Don't worry about it, it happens to best of us. Love lamb and that one looks exceptional. You inspired me to break mine out for tonite, will cook for me and the dogs since the wife left for Germany with her sister to cruise the Rhine. Just me and the dogs, my trusty KK and Monday night football...ain't so bad.
  18. Stick a pan in the sand and throw a grate on it. Should be ok for grillin
