From Big Bob Gibson's BBQ Book 8.75 lb Pork Shoulder 14 hours at 225 degrees Rub and Injection and Sop Mop exactly as call for in book. Allowed to rest for three hours and then pulled pork from bone. Plated with some spanish rice and refried beans, green onions. All I can say is WOW, some of the best pulled pork we've had, moist and flavorful! This is the longest low temp cook I've tried on the KK and it was amazingly easy to maintain the temp manually. I was highly impressed!!

Re: KK's website gone after Google's latest Algorithm

Dennis,

Sorry to hear this. It's how I found you!

Re: Everyday Misc Cooking Photos w/ details First ever beef short ribs. I had planned to cook them at 250 till done, my temp. got away from me and reached 350 before I caught it about mid cook. Took about 2.5 hours total time. Not bad for a first try. Used some rub I had left over from a previous cook.

You simply can't beat this forum for the information your looking for. I continue to learn from it daily.

Re: Big Smokey Burgers

Yes I bought a nifty little pepper core cleaner made just for that at our local Meijer's store. Worked well. The peppers I bought were large ones, perhaps smaller ones would have been better? Might try it with a milder pepper next time also. Thanks for the tip.

Re: Big Smokey Burgers

This was my first time cook with ABT's, I thought they were good, my wife said I need not make her any the next time! A bit too hot for her.

Big Smokey Burgers... Recipe found in recipe section here. ABT's made with pineapple creme cheese & grape tomatoes. Some grilled pineapple on the side. Life is good!

Re: Just ordered new KK

Gofit,

Congratulations! You will definately be glad you made this choice, the most difficult part of being a KK owner is deciding what you want to cook next!

Re: Everyday Misc Cooking Photos w/ details

On the side - a mix of Ranch Style Beans (found at our local Krogers) & Navy Beans, some green onion & bacon. #5. Gave some to the neighbors...now they are hanging around the garage waiting for more.....

Re: New Grill - Concord, CA

Congratulations! The best part is yet to come. Enjoy!

Re: Everyday Misc Cooking Photos w/ details

Tsunami Spin.....Looked it up......sounds good, will have to try it!

Thanks

Re: On the Fence...Need Advice!

Aces,

I also sat on the fence for over a year. Just finished my third cook of the KK and must say my only regret was that I waited so long! Once you've tried one you wont go back. I also use a propane weed burner to start my lump, can be cooking in 30 min. or so. The rubberneckin from the neighbors is most enjoyable also!

Jump in you wont regret it

Re: Everyday Misc Cooking Photos w/ details

Thanks Cookie, I've cooked on a variety of charcoal grills for forty+ years and I'm amazed at the moisture this chicken held on the KK. The ease of use is amazing. Should have "moved on up" years ago!

Re: Everyday Misc Cooking Photos w/ details

Roadside Chicken sounded just too good to not try, this is my third cook on my new KK (Sorry no photos of the pizza's or ribeye's! - EXCELLENT!) The chicken turned out great, I'm sure we will be having this again!

Re: Rollin....Rollin....Rollin CA to oHIo! It made the trip just fine! Arrived yesterday. Deliveryman was very helpful & wheeled it right into the garage for me. I must admit that my heart stopped a couple of times as he brought the pallet loader out onto the lift gate, but it worked out well! Got it all opened up and ready to lift off the crate, now it's just a matter of fiding a few more folks to help (looks like that may take a few days!!!) I must say that she's a beauty! While I've read about the quality I'm amazed by the site of it.

Re: Rollin....Rollin....Rollin CA to oHIo!

If I'm going to be doing that much cooking I better get to work on my new TIP jar!

Re: Rollin....Rollin....Rollin CA to oHIo!

Hello Mark,

Here's how that works at my house;

ME: Honey I burned the meat to a crisp on the grill.....

HER: That's ok honey....you can just take me out to eat!

I shouldn't complain......She's made me a better cook this way!

Bob

Re: Rollin....Rollin....Rollin CA to oHIo!

Thanks everybody for the welcome! I have no doubt we will enjoy our new KK. When I first discussed my desire to spend $4,000.00 on a new cooker my wife gave me one of "those looks", after she reviewed this site (and a years time) she warmed up to the idea

MadMedik Pork Shooters sound interesting, will have to give them a try, thanks! This forum is full of great ideas to expand your waistline!

Well, back to clearing out a spot for a large crate and a batch of CoCo!

Bob

Hello all, I've been lurking on the forum for over a year, sitting on the fence about this purchase. Well last week I jumpped off the fence and did it! After working with Dennis for over a week (THANKS DENNIS) to iron out a few small wrinkles with my financial institution correctly sending off the wire Well it is done and Dennis advised me today that my new 23" KK is on the way to oHIo from California! She's due in sometime next week, Dark Cobalt Blue in color - having spent a considerable amount of time On Line reviewing the KK it seems only appropriate to call her OL BLUE. Planning on photos when she arrives & look forward to participation in the forum! Bob in Central oHIo
