Well karl, I have to agree with Toney on all points especially the welcome. Your Kamado has similarities to the KK but it falls far shy of approaching the quality that goes into it. It's as if your comparing a Chevy to a Caddy. Hey I drive a chevy! Any how I have a Primo, Grill Dome,Weber and an offset Lang as well as a 23 KK. Always looking to improve my game and if your up to the challenge there are people here that are quite gifted and willing to share. Hey, you may even come around and add one of these to your collection, you"'ll be glad you did. Welcome

Cute scary smile

Where's the beef? Just kiddin, you do remember the commercial.

Surprised it made through customs and to your door without blowing up....Knowing how Aussie likes everything on the volatile side

Patience and planning seem to be the key, thanks for the thorough explanation...seems like a lot of fun

Great looking cooks. Can I ask how long it takes to fire to the point you have a working temp

Sorry drew, thought the pics were about trouble to temp. Glad you reached your goal

That's all from the garden ckreef ? No matter, but a pic with cheese melted and ooozing all around was somehow left out. Still looks good

I remember if you remove all the old pieces from the burn pot and recycle in New fuel air flow is greater. As long as there larger pieces to help that air

Enjoy. Don't turn around she'll be all grown up .Good pizza

So would I, if the food looked like that. Nice cook

A toast. May you be poor in misfortune, rich in blessings, slow to make enemies and quick to make friends. And may you know nothing but happiness from this day forward. Bottoms up

Nice little tailgater you have there ckreef, one more toy in the arsenal. I'm looking at the barrel cookers myself for my next purchase but that little primo does have some open options on the menu plan. A stick burner now, that's the way, fuel is free and you wash it out with a garden hose, just sayin.

Look nice but, next time place along side his brother, just for company and leftovers. Great color going on.

That looks good Toney. A great combo. Are you sure somewhat of that old song ain't talking to you,,,still. Enjoy

Beautiful. Happenstance just had our anniversary. Great meal, great occasion.

Good advice. HAPPY BIRTHDAY

Twins. Some good looking loafs my good man. You must Irish, prefer beer a be a Quiet Man, I presume.

Gotta say Tucker likes it low and slow and that is, as I have posted once before, a patience thing, no rush. Le naturel. For moi, I believe temp to 160 at a slow rate and then cranking the heat up to 300 and wrapping in foil to at least 200 or 205. Wrap in a towel and sit for an hour or more, choice. Works for me but, there is nothing wrong with Tucker's approach, except I don't have the time. Best of luck

your welcome, not for the faint at heart, but right up the alley for a lot with warm lips

Check out one by Steve Raichlen. camembert cheese was his base and the rest well, you'll have to watch.

Delicious lookin. Nice to see just salt and pepper for that piece.

Thats definitely a favorite of yours. Is it smoke or some help with the purple crack giving the whole circumference ring ?

Thanks for the idea and motivation, have to get started on mine. Looks like a great job, in particular the steel plated joinery. I've seen it used in brick builds outside the structures wall for strength and rigidity. Did you do the beams yourself...because they seem to have a flair on the bottom side, a pleasant exposure for the eye. Well done, a nice cover for the expected KK..., whatever choice it is.
