Very nice pictures, that bird looks delicious! On the temperature difference between the KK probe and the Meater: did you already calibrate the Tel-Tru of your KK? When I received by 22" Table Top this week, first thing I did was putting the end of the Tel-Tru in cooking water. It was showing 80° Celcius instead of 100°... You can adjust the Tel-Tru by gently turning the large screw right on the back of it. Also, keep in mind that because of all the heat soaking of the 32", you can have funny readings in the fist hour or so, and even beyond. For me, after all the mass of the 32" is heated, the KK Tel-Tru usually is within 5-10° Celcius of what my fireboard grate probe reporting. I am yet to find out how this is with the fairly smaller (and lighter) 22".

The non-uniform cobalt blue pebbles, how Dennis calls them, are beautiful, yes. Ever since @Tyrus mentioned the similarity to waves of water, I can't stop looking at that grill and seeing the ocean 😁 We, my wife and I, actually decided for these pebbles because Dennis mentioned he probably will not have these again. The non-uniformity, the light blue pieces, seem to have been a manufacturing error... Next year the 42" will be in bronze tiles. I think. 😁😁😁

The company of the movers is called Up & Down, they specialize in moving heavy stuff up (or down) the stairs:) they actually had some machinery with them to help, but they decided that they don't need it for this grill.... 😄 Amazing company, super professional. They earned their tips, indeed.

Hi all, I’m excited to share that the 22TT and the outdoor kitchen that @DennisLinkletter helped me plan have arrived this week! They look absolutely beautiful, and I now have so much space for cooking. Thanks so much, Dennis! I’m currently organizing where to place all the grill accessories etc., and once that’s done, I’ll do a full clean-up of the grills and furniture. What do you think? PS: The observant among you will notice that the grill is neither Tiles nor Bronze 😂

Hi guys, Today a new toy arrived, one of the category "useful". More or less by coincidence on Amazon I stumbled across the Kärcher AD 4 Premium Ash and Dry Vacuum Cleaner... Specifically designed for vacuuming grills and fireplaces. As I tried several (smaller) vaccum cleaner before.. And practically all did a bad job when it came down to vacuuming ash.... I thought this sounds too good to be true. What shall I say. Awesome! I never removed the ash so easy out of my 32" BB before. The entire ash space of the BB was filled up with ash.. Took about 30 seconds to get it completely vacuumed. No ash escaping the filters, flying through the air.. no spilled ash on the ground... And the vacuum cleaner is only filled up 50% (less even). In Germany, it is 113 EUR. Very fair from my point of view. That was such a good surprise I had to share with you 🙂 Now the BB is ready to cook some Iberico Ribs tomorrow! Cheers! Marc

1-2 years ago I bought a box of olive wood for smoking. I have to say I liked it. It was pretty much what chat gpt said, light, fruity flavor that smells like summer can't beat the smell when sitting on the patio and smoking some ribs with olive wood!

Sorry... I just saw that the picture I shared before actually did not show the temperature... Here you go

@MacKenzie yep, it is Celsius:-) you can actually see it was close to that temperature (590° Celsius) when I did the photo. Highest I got on the Gozney Dome was 640° Celsius so far. To achieve this it needs to be fueled with wood though. Propane gets it to something like 400° Celsius "only". This things burns like a hellfire... 👹 @David Chang old Dome. I am very satisfied with it. Attached some more pictures of earlier pizza sessions last year. It's really fun cooking pizza with the oven.

Hi Dennis! You will be amazed how much better the KK is compared to the BGE. Same happened to me, though I have been using a Kamado Joe before 🙂

Good morning Franck, so, to import the 32" BB I had to pay 19% of import sales taxes and an additional 2% of import duties / tariffs (the declaration says: "Zölle ohne EGKS-Zölle, Ausgleichs-, Antidumping- und Zusatzzölle, Zölle auf Agrarwaren"). Next to this there have been some services fees for the Hamburg Port and the haulage company to take care about everything (delivery to my house and also declaration and collection of tariffs and taxes). These summed up to another 15%. Let me know if you need anything more.

Hey Franck! Happy to help! Give me some time to check the documents from the first time when I imported my 32", then I will let you know how that has been calculated. Cheers Marc
