What a nice birthday dinner! YUM!

Bend test is the way to go!

Welcome to the Obsession! You're off to a great start!! It never gets old, btw!

Nailed it! Plus, the outcome is not as dependent on the time & temperature as we think. That's why we tell new folks DON'T CHASE THE TEMPERATURE! You just get frustrated trying to hit an exact target and in the end, it really doesn't matter that much. As the old saying goes, Close Enough for Government Work!

@remi - sorry for the accident, but glad that you're back in the KK saddle. Nice cook! @5698k - Robert, that steak looks PERFECT!

Nice to see you posting again, @Aussie Ora Lamb looks great!

@Tyrus - that's an old Singer pedal-driven sowing machine stand. My grandmother had one and I liked to "help pedal" on it as a kid.

Welcome to the Obsession! You're gonna love cooking on that BB32! Pics of that all-important 1st cook are a MUST on this site!

😭

I made my KK available to my neighbors when we got hit by the derecho and our power was out for almost a week. Fortunately, I had a couple of full bags of charcoal and several boxes of cocochar, as a back-up. Others in the neighborhood with grills pitched in, too. It was comforting knowing that we all could pitch in and help out anyway that we could.

Our resident genius, aka @DennisLinkletter, could probably make that work!! 😁

Nicely done on that stuffed pork loin!

As @MacKenzie said, I learned that trick a while back from the old POSK forum. Turn the thermometer to where your target temperature is at high Noon. You can quickly see where you are relative to your target, even from a distance. I can just look out the window from the kitchen to check on it. I don't use the clip. Mine doesn't move around on its own for whatever reason.

Looks like it, @MacKenzie. I grow them, and in fact, I grilled 5 as my appetizer for dinner last night. (Yeah, no pics, didn't happen! LOL)
