As Tekobo stated, no need for the heat deflectors. Only a few members actually use them. They are included as a courtesy as many start with a BGE and get used to using them. You just waste fuel by heating them. And I use the basket splitter for indirect cooking with the top grate upside down over the coals and the round drip pan under the food. For something full sized like a brisket or turkey the double drip pan works great, i don't have one so i just use a pair of stainless serving trays, i think it was @Poochie who suggested that and it works great, I line it with foil to keep it from getting caked with gunk, like my regular ones. And by keeping it clean you can also use it for catching drippings and roasting your veggies in it. They are not nearly as nice as the double bottom drip pans Dennis offers but they work.

Decided to make a steak for watching the basketball game, luckily the right team won so i was able to enjoy it lol Tried to insert a mov of the searing but I guess those cant be inserted from a Mac EDIT< trying MP4 IMG_9248-1280.mp4

Pork butts, they are good for practicing your temp control. You can cook one at 235 to 250 for 10 to 20 hours, depending on size. You’ll learn vent control the easy way and have some great food at the end of the day 😁 They are nearly impossible to screw up, just don’t overthink it. That is the biggest mistake many make, paralysis by analysis. Just enjoy it 👍

Welcome to the obsession !!!!! And I agree with Tony, listen to Dennis and you’ll be in good shape, that’s a beauty !!!!

Yum !!!!!

That is exactly why I don’t have one of those machines, that looks way too good LOL Hope the foot is healing well !!!!

Meatloaf and tater tot’s, perfect 👍

Congratulations !!!!!! Looking forward to seeing it in place 😁

Well I enjoy your videos, sorry to hear you won’t be making any more on the KK. But best of luck going forward 👍

Finally some real spring type weather here in the northeast so i had to make some chicken wings !!!!

Lots of stuff that was looking back at me and why on earth they would fry scallops and then drench them in mayonnaise is beyond me 🤮

It’s not just for spinning chickens 😁

Oh those look real tasty !!!!!! I’m not the most adventurous eater either. I went to a red egg and ginger party once, some of the authentic Chinese food wasn’t exactly to my taste lol

I agree with Tony, you will want to use it at some point

Until you fix your seal you’ll just be chasing your tail. And check the temp of the meat with a good meat thermometer, don’t just rely on a probe. And I’d also suggest you adjust your sprinklers, nothing good can come out of that.

A dozen years ago or so I started using C6Bill as a screen name while I was driving a C6 Vette Now I’m an Oldsmobile guy😆

I clean my thermometer every now and then. they do tend to get covered up in gunk

Welcome !!!!

Love the plates !!!!

Looks great !!!!!!!!

And the bottom ones will be basted for you lol Can’t wait to see the final results !!!!!

Hi, welcome to the forum 👍

I’m thinking Cooper would be the first to eat me if I dropped dead lol You can see how he got his name, I couldn’t bring myself to call him Alice lol

I bet your two cats are just as helpful as my two dogs lol But good luck with the foot 👍

Beautiful meal @tony b !!!!
