Big Poppa

we have Finney on board here now and I have been experimenting with his technique and I think it gets more flavor than my way but I am basically using the t rex method (see najked Whiz for details_ the KK is so responsive that you just pull the steaks to rest after sear and throttle down the bottom and top and wait for 400 Take note of the internal temp of the meat when you put them back on the kk....lets say they are 115...I pulled these at 135.....so at about 125 I turned them and pulled at 135 I split the difference between the starting internal and the desired finishing internal then they rest for about ten minutes or seo and dig in

I got the big ones one in matte black for my main house in the desert and one is gloss black at my summer home...that sounds terrible but it gets pretty hot in the desert... I have the bug so bad I have big drums and tons of pellet cookers too I have a guru for my primo but havent put it on the kk as I want to be able to do everything without it and then I will go the automated way I wish I had just bought the KK first..... When Dennis decides to sell the smaller older models at a crazy price Lookout!

Thanks Susan I am having a blast with these...I bough two....Am thinking of more I am a sick man. I love that you are so into this......

I just threew away my fourth maverick....someone has to come up with a better deal

Finney prepare for ceramic nirvana...I have read many of your posts on the Primo forum...My primo is fine but it is now a doorstop.....this kk is the best I bought two

Jimbo has it....he is in love with it and he got a greeting from sanny

I got to go to Big BoB Gibsons earlier in the month and they were all so kind and the grub was fabulous!

Jimbo...welcome this is a great forum....I didnbt see pics on my email yet..... Dennis let jimbo post pics...he wont be able to stand it if I can and he cant

The guru is great and I have one and it was necessary on my primo but the KK is so solid that you really dont need it. I havent used mine yet and I even did an overnighter....it went down 8 degrees while I slept no biggie

thanks alot

Ok a little garlic pepper seasoning salt and sear on lower shelf at 700 rest for 20 minutes finish at 400 on upper shelf....(In the first pic is also a bone in strip...for the wife also came out great) Thanks Dennis for such a great product. It is so rare that when you get something in this day and age that you know that your grandkids will be still using.

crtuz th0ose are fabulous how many minutes per side? Would you mind sharing any other details? Thanks

I liked it so much I bought 6 copies to give to friends

Nice I try to cook at slightly lower temps Appreciate the tip of putting the heat deflector on top of the fire....I put it on the second shelf and the drip pan on top for my chuckie roast and pork shoulder

You know what's funny? I just got my two KK's and cancelled my order for Gurus because this thing is so stable and controllable... Did an overnight cook and only lost 8 degrees after eight hours

OK I started the day in Charlotte and made a stop over in Decatur and made my pilgrimage to Big Bob Gibsons.....It was well worth it! I think that I may have taken the waitress aback when she start to take our order and I basically said "Everything!" They had to add a table to our foursome. Met Chris' father in law and he joined us for awhile and told us great stories and history...Chris then came out and joined us and we kept him too long. BIg Bob Gibson's is a fabulous shrine to consummate BBQ. The restaurant was really neat and clean and the articles on the walls and the giant trophies from Memphis in May were really cool. THe staff and family couldn't have been warmer or friendlier. Thank you to Chris and all at BBG! Working on a golf adventure with Chris at the Bob Hope Classic!

perfect he should know who we are! See you in the afternoon tomorrow! Thanks again

Mr Lilly. Thanks so much. We will be arriving in the late afternoon. Is there a better time for you? Thanks. Ps let me know if there are any guitar players there so I can send a gift pack from my company Ernie ball

It is a pilgrimage ...Im in San Diego thiss morning.....Philly tonight, New Jersey Tomorrow Charlotte thurs and a stop in Dothan before returning in the evening thurs Dennis...you think he is in Alabama? Worth a try.
