Keep in touch with the customer. See if after a while he or she says they got tired of using the blower and just went to vents. I HAD to have a Stoker and a BBQ Guru, early on. Never use them anymore. Now I just start the CORRECT amount of charcoal, set the vents by eye, and read the smoke coming out the top. I like the Thermoworks Smoke thermometers because they have a dedicated radio receiver. I hate the app based ones that use your phone, most of those apps suck.

Any time I think about getting another cooker, it seems there’s nothing I could do on it I can’t do on my KK. I really want to get a Weber kettle, a WSM, a PK, some other Kamado like the Blaze and so on. Just to have some more toys. But I never do get one. Don’t need to.

Blaze has that aluminum one that looks pretty cool.

I still have some coco char logs from 2009… I think I’ll break them in smaller pieces and repackage them for ready use.

I’m not a fan of normally grilled meat, seared outside and pink inside. We use the KK for its sous vide like capabilities. For a steak, I’ll cook it indirect high up in the dome, above a typical hot grilling fire. It takes a little longer than straight grilling, gets a lot more smoke, and comes out pretty evenly cooked from surface to center. Once it hits finish temp or just under you could sear it but I don’t. We cook big beef tenderloins this way on Christmas Eve, and it gets rave reviews! Also standing rib roasts. If you like a charred outside and rare inside this isn’t for you. Of course for burgers, sausages and dogs we just grill them on the open fire, albeit I do it on the top grate. Takes just a bit longer and gets some more smoke.

Yeah that’s him. As far as Pepperidge Farm, that blew right over my head.

There was a dude who was/ is a butcher in Chicago who used to post here a lot. Anybody remember that guy? Is he still on the board?

Well it’s five years later and Dennis solved another problem for me, gratis. Top notch CS.

OK works fine on desktop computer, thanks!

Does anyone actually use the Polder branded products? I wonder how many people on The Forum know why that thermometer cable port is called Polder in the first place. What is the maximum number of thermometer probes anybody has managed to get through that port? I have used a number of different brands of thermometers over the years, but have since firmly landed in the Thermoworks camp.

This is on an iPad by the way

And this is what it looks like when I tap on the magnifying glass for search

This is what my homepage looks like with a little magnifying glass for searching up there.

Yeah I’m missing something here. When I click on the little magnifying glass search button at the top of a page there is no “member search” tab. Eh, it’s not that important I guess. But thanks.
