Re: Pork ButtCook/ Sauce Advice

I have both side by side. Started my cook at 8:00 am. Internal temp of 124 at 12:00 pm - 225 avg. dome temp.

Re: Pork ButtCook/ Sauce Advice

thanks. early riser on a sunday?

Re: Pork ButtCook/ Sauce Advice

Another comment - left the rind on - good idea or should I trim?

Re: Pork ButtCook/ Sauce Advice

Thanks for the advice. I appreciate the comments, pics, and help. I have some fresh thyme in the garden and will make both sauces - raspberry chopotle and the ultimate bbq sauce. Should I mix the pork in the sauce and freeze for the weekend? ( Sept 28) or add the sauce to the pork when served? or add the sauce to the onions when sauteed? or keep the sauce as an add on for each person? I would like to offer both options and perhaps one with no sauce??

I am doing a pork shoulder - 16lb cut in half this weekend. Looking for some advice. I do not have any extruded charcoal and have learned I may need up to 16 hrs. of cook time to reach 185/90 at 220/25 temp. I don't think my charcoal will last that long.

I am also looking for advice for sauces to go with apple smoke. Going on a fishing trip with the guys - pulled pork on a bun with sauteed onions on the side.

any ideas would be appreciated!!!!!!

Re: Finally Arrived!!!

Olive pebble

My grill is beautiful. After an anxious time waiting for it at customs in Toronto, Canada (they opened it and looked inside - not following the obvious instructions - I might add) I finally have it now in my back yard. first cook will be steak and potatoes as firemonkey described a while ago using the lower grate. The cover that johnnyboy made fits perfect. now I really feel part of the "family".

Just received my new cover for my soon- to- come KK. Excellent craftmanship and service. Well done Johnnyboy!

Re: Gas Burner

that sounds great. I think that will be my first meal - easy - hard to ruin. I have little experience with cooking with charcoal - always had a gas bbq - except in the college days with chicken wings on a hibachi grill. looking forward to the journey of discovery with the kk. do you ever use the very bottom grill?

Re: Gas Burner

thanks for the info!

Re: Raleigh, NC

my next road trip to deals gap and the smokey mountains would be an ideal time to view your beauty. I have the exact same KK (minus the shelves) currenly on the water for delivery mid feb.

Re: Gas Burner

you guys are a tough crowd! thanks for the tip on the propylene gas. I have a weed burner (purchased for weeds) which I plan on using to light the lump (minion method?) but thought that was for long and slow burns. for hot and fast (2 hours for example for potatoes - I thought I would use a smaller amount of lump and start it all at once - like a charcoal chimney starter but thought the chimney would be awkward emptying into the kk with hot coals - I guess not?

I would like to cook the potatoes on the top (or middle?) grid but the steak on the lower grid. just wondering how I could do that or if that would be ideal for those two foods.

Re: Frog Mats

the mats are used for things like chicken wings or shrimp that might fall through the grate. seems like a good idea. no luck yet on the caul fat - will try a butcher - if I can find one!

Re: Frog Mats

I will look for a source. thanks.

Re: Gas Burner

how would I cook a baked potato and steak for two?

Anyone use Frog Mats? They are non-stick mesh make for cooking small items.

Does anyone out there want to sell their gas burner that they may not like/use?

Re: First run with the Auberins controller

Saison,

Recently ordered my KK. Researching controllers. Read your posts. Wondered if you like the Auberins for low and slow cooks or when you use it.Could not find any pics of the adapter you are using - apparently the dcompany does not provide one for the KK.
