Hi All, Last night I cooked up a nice pork roll on the KK. I had originally cooked these in the past indirect with the double bottom drip pan and got the KK up to around 350F. However this time I tried putting the pork on the top shelf and doing it direct over the coals. Well I think this is the way I am going to do it from now on. The crackle was killer! The best I have done in the KK since I have owned it. Thats been one of the parts of my cook that i wanted to nail, the crispy crackle is always a winner when entertaining guests. I could easily make it on my old weber but never as good on the KK. Well now I have. Its even better because the crackle was crisp but the meat was moist inside. So thats a winner all round. So the process was: - Heat soaked the KK for 2.5 hours to 250F (didnt want to get it too hot as I wanted to bring the temp down later in the cook) - Prepared the pork - Upped the temp on the KK and opened the vents wide open for 30 mins. This got the coals nice and hot. 3 turns i believe on the top - Put the pork in on the top shelf - 1H with the wide open vents holding around 350-380F - Closed the bottom vent back to about a 1/4 on the left dial and 1.5 turns on the top vent - Cooked till it was 145F IT - Pulled it off and rested for 20mins - Carved it up This is the basic approach that I took. Would love to hear any suggestions, but I will be giving this another try in a week or so to see if I can still nail it

Hi All, Well i just realised that i dont have a motor for my 32" big bad spit basket. Was going to fire it up tomorrow, but yeah realised i need to get a motor. What size turning weight are you all buying? Im in Australia and have found this place online. http://www.bbqspitrotisseries.com.au/p/stainless-steel-bbq-spit-rotisserie-240v-motor-20k/MO013 What do you guys think about this motor? Will it fit my 32" or is it too big. Says in the description that it will fit 8mm square skewer. Is that the size we have on our BBQ's? This motor will turn 20Kgs, however the smaller ones will turn 10Kgs. Reading in the reviews, people are saying that this motor will allow the spit to turn at the same pace as it goes round and round. What are your thoughts? If anyone else in AU has any suggestions motors, id love to hear them. Cheers.
