Re: Buying decision help requested! You could be grilling in about two weeks. I'm in New Orleans, actual shipping was about five days, payment to shipper pick up in LA, two days, maybe. I think I remember that to be about right. Thats assuming your grill is in the warehouse ready to be shipped. Robert

Re: Charcoal choices? Ditto on the Ozark Oak, I've had good luck with it also. Then there's cocochar....always great! Robert

Re: Sure fire pork butts and ribs Make sure both your lower doors are pushed closed, they can work open just enough to allow unwanted air in, wreaking havock on temp control. Robert

Re: Tappecue - May be interesting? All I see is monitor, no controlling ability. If it did that, good by wi fi guru! Robert

Re: Buying decision help requested! What he said. Robert

Re: New KK Video in the works - your feedback please There are several videos on you tube by various people, LarryR comes to mind. While very nicely done, they don't have the professional quality of yours. You might check those out though, for some ideas. LarryR, I don't mean this as a criticism! Robert

Re: New KK Video in the works - your feedback please Yeah, thats a class video, beautifully done. Thats the kind of sales product that I think Dennis might like!! Robert

Re: Pork Ribs: 2 racks or 1 rack when cooking On my cooks, I use a wi fi guru to control temps. With the pit probe at main grate level, the temp is usually about 10-15 degrees hotter than indicated on the tel tru. I have not verified the accuracy of the tel tru. Robert

Re: Pork Ribs In 12 hrs you'll have charcoal bones. Even at 200 deg, bb's might take 6 hrs, and IMO, no real benefit. For a lo/slo, try 225 for about 5 hrs indirect, more for St. Louis, also slight adjustments for how meaty they are. Robert

Re: Hello and Help! Just saw on another post, Dennis renewed his vows with his bride very recently, so he's been somewhat distracted. Any thermometer will do, even a remote one that can be purchased at most hardware stores that carry grills. The break in is roughly, 450 deg. for 2 hrs, then 500 for an hour, then 600 for an hour. I still have the instructions, as I'm sure others do, so if all else fails, let us know, you can get them easily. Robert

Re: Re-Newed my Vows and on a US Road-trip Congrats Dennis! Robert

Re: Did I make a mistake? We're all still learning! Robert

Re: Did I make a mistake? Yes, put that foil pouch directly on the fire, poke holes in the foil also. Soaking wood isn't necessary, it just creates steam. If wood absorbed water, it would sink. Do you have chunks? If so, get your fire to temp, add the wood, let the white smoke clear a bit, then add your meat. The initial white smoke that burns your eyes also adds an acidic taste to your food, so burn that off. Robert

Re: Did I make a mistake? Look at the gasket, does it look deformed? When you close to the second position, is it tight? It will loosen over time. My guess is no problem, it's a very common mistake. Robert

Re: Help putting this thing together!! Sure, give me a bit please. Robert

Re: Help putting this thing together!! Pic 1, try to slide the ash deflector further on the rods. You shouldn't see any daylight between the rounded edge of the deflector and the grill itself. Pic 3, that clip goes on the thermometer shaft from inside the grill. Pic 4, the odd shape stone is your deflector, the round one your pizza stone. Pic 6, spare tension springs for your guru plug, which is pic 5. To clean, take your ash deflector off, and sweep ashes through the air vent opening, with the door removed. Personally, I use a shop vac with a drywall filter. The rear door is only for using the optional propane starter, which almost no one uses. I would think the rotisserie should have cradle holders, mine did. If Dennis isn't answering, there is an issue. He could be travelling, but if you leave a message by e mail or phone, he WILL get back to you. If you like, pm your phone number, I'll be happy to help. Robert

Re: KK in NY Times Pyramid scheme?? PLEASE!!! Robert

Re: Nathans Famous Hotdogs Ok, what's the deal with the clean grates?? Robert

Re: banned It seems problems are fixed! I thought I had mis behaved also! Robert

Re: Moving a 19....suggestions please I used a lift gate truck to move my 23 just two weeks ago. The expense was well worth the agony of the move. I highly recommend it. Robert

Re: My32" KK coming together! Yahoo!! Let us know how it handles, I'm lusting over one!! Robert

Re: New BB32 Autumn Nebula coming to Rochester NY You have graduated! You're about to enjoy the most fun a person can have cooking with fire!! I hope you enjoy yours as much as I have mine. Robert

Re: On Memorial Day, thank you. Reagan, I really miss him. Robert

Re: Sure fire pork butts and ribs Personally, I would do the pork first, and have the ribs come off just before serving. I find that pork re-heated in the oven tastes a lot better than ribs done the same way. If you're serving ribs at 2, put them on at 9:45, 275 deg., pull at 1:45. Heat the pork for about 45 min. at 250-275 deg., you'll look like a genius!! Robert

Re: Heat deflector You sure thats not your pizza stone? Robert
