  1. I think it depends on your climate sgt. I don’t have a cover as I see my kk as a piece of sculptured art. Midnight midwinter our temp drops to 10c- about 50f and it’s under a roof through the heat of the day. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. Keep the duck cooks coming. If it’s on a restaurant menu I will normally order it. We don’t see it often in our markets and therefore I don’t get to cook it much. Most of my hunting mates target other game. That duck looked delish. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. And get the half grill grate. Congrats on the decision to buy. I'm sure you will enjoy the experience.
  4. I was thinking the same Bruce. I can't imagine stepping outside in the snow to initiate a long slow cook..That's dedication.
  5. In our experience, the architect designed the hardscaping and basic placement of everything. Then one of the best decisions we made was to throw those designs at a specialised landscape architect on an hourly rate. Once he provided the specific plants and their placement in the garden( and after I got my head around the scientific names of the species), everything popped off the page and finalised that last 10% of uncertainty. He knew which plants would thrive in our local conditions and planned around morning and afternoon hotspots/ cool spots and realigned some of the viewpoints with slight modification to garden beds. This has also made our plant order really easy with a list of species, number of plants and pot sizes. Just give this to a wholesale nursery and they deliver everything when we are ready to plant it out. Time will tell.
  6. This is exciting Troble. That fence looks beyond propping up. Our building works start in the second week of Feb. Hope to be completed first week of April- in time for Easter. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. Yep, that’s what I thought, pebbles definitely cook better. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  8. Well done glx. Do you have a photo of the new KK? Plenty of diversified cooks coming up. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  9. Trust the welsh to have a 7 letter word with 1 vowel. I caught the wrong train in Wales and ended up lost. I had to call some friends and spell the name out because I couldn’t pronounce it” C W M B R A N” Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. Thanks Jon, I can't get myself that excited about boiling eggs. Have you tried one of these? They have worked well for us.
  11. What colour did you end up choosing?
  12. Well done Takela. Most of us deliberated for a few years. Maybe except ckreef. [emoji23] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  13. No takeaways for you Tekobo. Great effort. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. It’s ok. I found this on the app. point 15. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  15. Is this heat sensitivity a concern when spit roasting over direct heat? I am usually doing this with dome temp around 180C- 200C( 360f- 400f) for the rotisserie set up. I have assumed the rotation would give the probe a break from the direct heat.
  16. You are no chance of resisting! [emoji23] I’m expecting photos within the month. Tasty looking dish Tony Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  17. Tried the Meater for the first time tonight. I am very impressed. Really easy app with good functions to preset different meats, cuts and also adaptive for tailoring. Boned out lamb shoulder. seared first down near the embers with a bit of sea salt and cumin. Then finished up high with the Meater in place and added garlic and basil after the sear so it didn’t burn. The time left until target temp is a great function and the ambient temp on Meater read 10 deg f( 5 deg C) less than the Tel Tru in the dome. That’d be about right given there was a tray under the lamb for indirect indirect finish. I had to leave for an hour as soon as I pulled it off the KK and by the time got back the kids had devoured most of it. Here is my leftovers plated. Looking forward to trying this further with the rotisserie. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  18. I gave it to my mates- his boat. He baked the two smaller ones with onions and lime and filleted the big snapper. Sorry, no pics. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  19. Good to see the beetroot in there Aussie. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  20. Herbie you have been eating well lately. Looks good. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  21. Lasagne tonight. First time in the KK. On the plate. 1.5kg of beef with greens that had to be trimmed from the new vegepod. This thing is unreal. Possum proof, grub proof, no more pests eating my veges. This was after planting seeds 6 weeks ago. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  22. Thanks Mac, Tekobo, I will get back into bread when I return from holidays. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  23. It sounds like the 42” is happening Charles, it’s just a case of When! [emoji23] There are plenty more celebration dates coming up on the calendar. Summer solstice, winter solstice, first day of spring, birthdays. Australia Day is coming up on the 26th of Jan. You could celebrate this! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  24. Pulled this out of The Pacific this morning. Whole roast, or fillet fried? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
