  1. Smart shopper. Locked and loaded, waiting on the grand finale'.
  2. Nice set-up with everything right in front. Very impressive looking piece of meat. That puts one more notch on the BBq gun....it 'll settle in and then you'll see something, maybe on line, at a store or event and the process will begin anew...how can I get that home in the backyard. Nice toy, enjoy the heck out of it Ckreef.
  3. Welcome aboard. Scary lookin speakers Merrill
  4. an experiment....trial and error, can't be too bad. good luck
  5. Definitely a foreign language. Called Amazon and explained the issue they said they would inform the seller but I haven't heard anything yet. They did give me $5 on my next purchase , however. If you read the posting regarding the likes rating you may find some info there. I believe 3/4 water to 1 cup rice, I also saw a 1 to 1 ratio. Maybe Toney can enlighten us since I followed his link to Amazon when mention of rice cooking was around. I haven't used it yet but, I understand you can use it on a gas or electric stove. Keeping in mind were talking about the 3 part, small black ceramic piece. There is also a 20/20/20 method in prep,, 20 mins soak 20 mins cook med/high and 20 rest. Might be a experiment waiting to happen, mine's sitting on the stove waiting for action
  6. Trust me, it happened. Enough,,,robbing Ckreefs space
  7. Sorry Ckreef' My daughter had her Wedding shower. just wanted to say I did 7 racks of BB Ribs today. 5 on the KK and two on the Primo. I like my Primo xl but the KK won hands down today, fully loaded with 5 big thick BBacks korean style. Definitely my go to for ribs and other things but it made the day,,,,,,, 40 women..my name was garcon. Pictures..forgive me, thought of it, when I did, I was too busy. With 5 ribs on the rib rack the moisture retention inside kept the cook comfortable, and the temp stayed at 230 -240 all day, long cook but, I provided the time. OK, just another goood cook. I do believe it's time too rest. Goodnite

    Electric Comversion

    Don't tell Balcony Smoken that from Indonesia that. I can understand the concern but the electric part I have trouble putting two hands on. Seems to go against the general purpose but, if any one can dream up the possibility,,,, it might be found here in an inventive mind. Although you may have to pay up for the patent.
  9. Ha Ha If you donned that the neighbors might think you were an executioner. Glad it's all under control
  10. I want to do tonite what spring does to cherry trees. Eat as much as you can. Yum
  11. All you need now is horse and jousting pole but don't drive by any Casinos with that betting habit

    I know you'll not disappoint. Seriously though,,,,the transit authority train service travels by this area and that whistle blows at crossings all the time at a distance, gonna have ta get some ear muffs. Daughters wedding shower here tomorrow with 40 ladies and the KK will be earning it's worth. A great weekend to you all

    Off the Wall

    If memory serves me correctly I remember your area as being so comfortable and spatial. You could dado out the letters on a smaller board and layin some colored epoxy and place it where you want, a condensed version that would look pretty cool in your area and have a signature feel about it. Incidentally the joists I layed were built into the ground and locked in with a ton and half of 3/4 stone for head clearance and the ability to bring the offset on and off. Keeps the rain off my head, as for now the cookers remain spread about but once moved in I'll have a better chance of leaving them there. Is it full yet,,,a rack of beer would look lonely down in there, waiting on an event. Too big a challenge for one, something designed for many, although I can toss a few back once the train gets rollin

    As you are well aware anything with moving the Queen off her throne must be handled "delicately" as the WW of the West once said. The plans are afoot as we speak my dear Watson but please let me sit back in my chair and ponder on that awhile. In due time my pretty, in due time

    Off the Wall

    The plan is to move all that stuff, bring in cookers and one chair and leave me with the cooler. It's a mission and a plan I'll undertake as soon as the time is ripe...under cover darkness. Oh ya Bruce, plenty of room, 11'6" x 11'6", with room to expand if the need arises.
  16. Practice, practice for backing up them trailers, everythings the opposite of nature. Nice adventure ride, the open road and with a big present to open later plus it's sitting on a fine galvanized trailer/throne, oh happy day.
  17. Congrats on the grill. Let's ahhh balance the scale here. Truck vs grill, let's check all angles on this particular presentation...........yep, just as I suspected. Your wife has the key and you got holding a bag of coal. Now it's not over yet, there's room for negotiation, handsome grill but it won't get you to the store as long as she holds the key. If you can get that key maybe on a Saturday, well it's a start. The things we do for love. I don't think we have a rope long enough. Make mine Med/rare

    You know being a reserved species that I am, I'd take that bet, unfortunately overworked on various projects have left me incapacitated,my back ooooh my back. It would have killed a lesser man. Any time limit?
  19. I built this shelter for my KK and offset trailer to shelter them but, that idea became a shadow of the past as my desired area became a thought for my wife's new propane fire pit. Now don't worry gentlemen, as soon as the weather changes I'll move those heavy BBQ pieces into position and all will be complete, done, written and composed, never to be repeated or moved, almost certain, you now what I mean, just be sure she's out shopping when you do the deed. Well, I've seen so many nice structures built and posted here I thought my small whimzical rendition may apply in it's setting for consideration as a thought. The structure and floor took two weeks to build and came in at around 1K and it took that long because I'm older than the wood I was laying down. The forested background and distance from the house said, "make it simple." I do believe it's a nice spot to toss a few back, thought of Steve as I remember he liked the afternoon cordial so much. Now to Steve and too all the others that have spent so much to get there areas together and make the journey, your show pieces are magnificent..........I'd have done the same except for two reasons.......that woulda taken 6 weeks of WORK,,,,,,,,,,,,, and besides will be moving to Florida sometime soon enough?

    Surprising beef ribs

    Down to earth, that's what I see in your cooks. Lay those tatoes on the coals, roast the beef alternative style and bring UK camping back to the yard, hell, my yard too. Sometime we forget, and remember the simpler way or the embedded way to cook, I like what I see. Great cook, smashing and all that. Doesn't help you pickin a winnin team.
  21. It's a Question of balance. Your KK with it's refractory liner contains the heat from the fuel within it's core and minimises the heat loss to it's outer core. This extra layer adds a little time to your start so, if your planning to start at the same time as a single layer kamado with your KK remember the added layer. Give yourself a little more time and find the balance between airflow, chunk size and patience
  22. Yah, that's good and you'll be playing ball in Fenway or whatever your favorite park maybe. A good sauce for one butt I may recommend is Head country---Apple Habanero, a thin sauce in the BBQ designation but, I think it compliments pork. Hey, good luck my friend, were all here to lend a hand.....a helpful group here
  23. As I was peekin through the cracks I thought I'd pass along this thought. A lower temp will obviously add time on the grill, moving the temp higher will close that window considerably. If your cook goes for an extended period as Tucker mentioned the meat has rendered it's fat and 195-200 is ok. If I were cooking, a temp from 250 or even to 275 is in range for pork butt. Internal temp if you overshoot to 205 is not a worrying occasion. Just remember they still continue to cook in the cooler when wrapped, having 3 project that accordingly. It's all good in the neighborhood
  24. Don't get stuck behind the 8 ball, give yourself enough time for the cook. If you run short of time heat it up or wrap. Nothing worse than hungry guests, lynch mob scenario
  25. Looks good dr2be, cooks and bbq layout were nicely done. I think down the road the wires keeping your cooks alive will be replaced with a simple thermometer. Tools are fantastic to monitor and ease your cooks but in the end it's time and temp and a good eye. I'll take one ribs, please.
