  1. trying on baked wings two of the many spices we bought from the grand bazaar in instabul this year. one was potato chips spice (true to taste) and kfc spice (close but not really)
  2. if you are looking for a controller with more than 4 ports, Fireboard 2 Drive has 6 thermistor ports. Wifi and Bluetooth. if you get this, use the 2 probes supplied until they break, then buy thermoworks probes because they are better made. avoid the Fireboard fan, the cable wraps, the magnetic base. all junk. and get the bbqguru pit viper fan.
  3. @jeffshoaf do you find ice crystals in the mix often? do you find to need to respin a few more times to get the consistency you want? thanks! 🙏
  4. haha, reviving an old thread i decided to search pacojet and here we are. @tekobo are you still using this machine? these things still cost thousands second hand. i am considering a ninja creami for a fraction of the price since i'm only curious to use one for now..
  5. some updates. after 2 weeks of curing (too long, but whatever), i butterflied and rolled it. now it should be another 2 months drying until target weight...
  6. @MsTwiggy hi and welcome. i also light a wax starter from the bottom floor of the kk for low and slow. this is not what most people do to start charcoal but it works for me. i can only speak of the 19TT, but i get very long slow and low burn times on a full basket using lump charcoal.
  7. ohif you plan on eating curry crab, look for it at early lunch. almost every place we went to for dinner expecting to order curry crab, they were sold out. i made the mistake of booking our hotel the same travel dates but next month. so my wife will come to bangkok again in march on me screwing up.. 😂
  8. i have these in my grill and its normal.
  9. my google maps list of places to eat and massage. some are closed. some i haven’t been back to in years. the weather now is really good by the way. warm but low humidity. its much comfortable than summertime. https://www.google.com/maps/placelists/list/18p2PCGQPqVfWcA2u7iV7PNs1OWQ
  10. when you come, be prepared to negotiate taxi/tuk tuk prices. nobody goes by the meter anymore. or use grab
  11. we were just at Empornium earlier tonight. bangkok is as crazy as ever, we were thinking of buying an apartment here a few years ago since we travel here so often, but it's just too crazy to live here, even part-time. i asked my wife he she wanted to go to bali for a week since we both never been there, but she loves thailand. oh well maybe next time..
  12. bangkok in a nutshell eat, get a 4 hands thai massage. eat, get a foot massage. eat. get another massage. repeat again the next day..
  13. my dinner 75% of the time when i cook alone...
  14. my wife was diagnosed with type 2 (or was it type 1?) diabetes. she had freestyle bluetooth device in her arm and checked it like every 3 min. the anxiety was not worth the technological convenience. she stopped checking all together and now just eats carefully. i guess it wasn't that serious? 😅
  15. I just started curing this tonight in vac seal. my second attempt at charcuterie. first attempt at curing beef longer than what pastrami takes.. i'm expecting about 1 week cure, 2 months dry, maybe another 2 months in the bag...i dunno lets hope nothing goes wrong... recipe here.
  16. thanks poochie. i know exactly why it wasn't good. it's because i rushed the whole thing. i don't think i have the patience for making bread anymore and these days i feel like buying bread more than baking it...
  17. @Tyrus oh, i didn't know you haveone. and good to know it's serving you well. i have mostly carbon steel for reactive cookware and used to the upkeep, but i live in sauna most of the year, so i don't think this device would be suitable for me outdoors. i've been seeing a lot of this cast iron kamado on youtube, so it seems popular, albeit more expensive that your average flowerpot kamado.
  18. i think i forgot how to bake. I haven't made bread in months..
  19. yeah, they have the rustic line with no powder coating. i guess some people like patina? but this is a little too much... it's same price as the powder coated ones. they claim a 27 hour burn time which is pretty good. but the cast iron internals, firebox, grates, plates are all a PITA to maintain..
  20. This is a cast iron kamado. I've never used one before, but it looks very high maintenance in humid/wet weather. https://www.goldenscastiron.com/product-category/kamado-grills/
  21. no worries, online thread making does not imply ownership so post away your results with the new machine!
  22. https://www.youtube.com/@Petespans/videos Pete's Pans. Trained chef. Lots of classic french/european dishes. Tons of outdoor cooking onsite. Historic, intelligently well spoken, and with proper pronunciations!
  23. i cant answer the clearance question but another way like mac does it is to use a prop. i have ceramic ones i’ve used before to prop a rack up
  24. after you get over the price, the next challenge is trying to convince your spouse spending junior’s tuition on a meat slicer is the best thing to do…😇
  25. i'm not sure if this can help you. they make a swivel post for an upper grate that bolts to the main grate. but you'll need to cut off the upper grate handles so it can clear the food on the main grate level. https://smokeware.com/products/grate-stacker?_pos=2&_sid=c1f00d43b&_ss=r
