That’s a great repair job wingman, better than new. And now a piece of your toil is imbedded into your KK. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Syz your drip pan looks older than your kamado- it’s still white. How did you do that? [emoji23] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That video came through mcg. Great looking cook. Not sure why you want to remove the connective tissue. That’s my favourite, sticky, gooey, flavoursome, juicy part combined with the muscle. The fat I understand. If you want to remove the fat, it would be tricky to leave connective tissue behind. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The only damage I see done is a broken wing. [emoji23] That’s a marathon if you have to adjust through the cook with the rotisserie. Well done. Both birds look perfect. Let us know how you think the pan trick works by comparison. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I can’t imagine they will be anything but a success Tekobo. We are too warm for apple trees here, otherwise, I’d love to give this a go. That’s a fine looking chip. Shouldn’t take too long to dry out if you are turning them or leaving them with little depth. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

What are you rotating Troble? I love the rotisserie. Heres a tip, set the lower rack flipped over onto its higher setting above the coals. Build up your heat, When you start cooking, about 20- 30 minutes into the cook you will start to smell the meat and see a little more steam and smoke Coming out of the KK. When this happens, insert a tray onto the lower grill to stop the oils dropping into the fire. I’m sure you will work this out. Yum yum Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It’s the same today mcguerra. However, tin foil across a lower grate does the same job and is less cumbersome. I’ve been doing this with my foil and it works well- deflector, and catches the drips. Out of an old kamado book I found. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Exactly what happens in our house Troble. I struggle to overcook a steak. It kills me watching it burn. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That looks tasty Troble. Sometimes you can score an outstanding piece of meat, especially with that eye fillet cut...... and the KK. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That’s a well organised grill set up ticket. Did you prefer the dry or wet ribs? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

As Pequod said. Sounds like fun wingman, especially when the cooking can begin. BTW, nice choice, that’s a fine looking KK. Yes the firebox can shift in travel. You can move it around only if it hasn’t had a fire. After your first fire, it kind expands into that position and shouldn’t be moved from then on without risking a crack. Burn in if you plan to cook pizza, bread at high temps, otherwise, cook away. Use burn in as a time to understand your temp control and gradually work it higher. Try not to swing it by the handle, although, a gently push/ tug can help change direction or start the roll. If you have helpers, then try to have their contact points around the bench brackets or a little lower. They roll pretty easy for a heavy unit, you can feel the momentum gather even on a flat surface. I remember having to call Dennis and holding my breath before rocking it off the pellet. I felt like I’d bottomed out a brand new car and didn’t want to rip the guts out as I unwedged it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’ve been living under a rock.... for centuries it appears after reading this. https://www.soapstonepizzastones.com/?page_id=100 If that rock was soapstone,( I’m shaking my head in disbelief), then I’m living in “Acres of Diamonds” anyone read this book? It’s a great short story. If you haven’t. https://www.lyricsvibrations.com/2019/10/14/acres-of-diamonds-a-short-motivational-or-inspirational-story/ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Nothing wrong with that cook coolpapa. I’d eat that any day. So the soapstone with direct heat under it transfers more heat that the dome. Why would people use this as a pizza stone? Maybe I’ve missed something? Does it take long to heat up? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Great footage Steve. I haven’t eaten guinea fowl for 30 years and can’t remember its taste. More turkey than chicken? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Maybe the Egyptians would have used duck fat if they had access to it? If only they knew what Tekobo knows! [emoji1658] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Don’t dump it Tekobo. You are only at stage 1 to mummify it! [emoji24] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Very nice Troble. Did you run with a rainbow of colour changes with your lights? I filled a 6m3 skip bin yesterday cleaning out the garden beds. Building and tiling finishes next week. Looks like I’ll race you to the finish line! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Welcome Christine. Perfect timing.[emoji23] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Interesting syzygies. I too was intrigued by this post and thought about exploring further. You however, plunged in. Thank you, interested in seeing how this works out. Maybe like many cooking toys, once you understand the physics, they all serve a purpose? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Syz that’s a tasty looking loaf. I’ve been sanding and oiling wood all day, bringing beautiful grains, knots, bouls to life, it’s been fun. Do I see a swirl within that crumb? Almost like I’m looking down a tasty piece of timber? I think I need to step away! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Maybe it’s a Southern Hemisphere thing, like water down a drain pipe- smoke up a chimney? [emoji100] [emoji3166] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Great looking cooks mayor. Had your son sprinkled black crayon over half that pizza? I get a bit of random left right burn and have been playing with 2 openings. Haven’t worked it out yet. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Welcome Syn. Ditto above, close the lid after lighting and once alight and temp is registering on the dome, open the bottom vent to maybe mid sized hole plus 10mm pie. Control temps then with the top. I’ve found about a 1/8 turn can hold low. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
