Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Arizona barbeque Outfitters: http://www.azbbqgrills.com/ They make to order and are pretty busy - I ordered back in February and beat a price increase due to their materials cost going up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony b Posted June 14, 2021 Report Share Posted June 14, 2021 Very nice grill! You're going to have immense fun with that! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffshoaf Posted June 15, 2021 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2021 Seasoned the grates and griddle and did the 1st cook. Dry aged ribeye, mushrooms, onions, and a grilled salad with chard, kale, and lettuce, plus some chicken for pasta later in the week. One of the best steaks I've ever had! 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Yeah, it's a bit overkill for one steak and sides especially since i have to lug everything downstairs ( the KK, kettle, and gas grill are all conveniently located on the deck upstairs). That being said, it was a great steak - the taste was noticably better than over charcoal and the double heat management (coal placement and grate height) is very easy. I might have to get a Santa Maria attachment for the kettle! My plan for this is for larger cooks and pool parties. I'm hoping to have a family reunion with 30 or more people this summer and was thinking I'd smoke some butts for pulled pork overnight on the KK and grill chicken and veggies on this new beast. My sister likes the goat she's got at Indian restaurants and she's already wanting to get a whole one for me fix on this.

Basher Posted June 22, 2021 Report Share Posted June 22, 2021 And today this was delivered.Excellent detail with simple and easy use design. Closed in storage below to keep timber dry.Detail like the brass rolling handleRefractive cement bricks and wool in the door cavity to keep the front cool for the cook.And the removable milled steel fire tray to elevate the initial fire for air circulation.Also designed to lower the grill into the pit for caveman Sears.And removable grates and drip trays at dishwasher sizes.And the removable spit for up to 40kg- that’s about 90lb!!!!This can also have a grill rack placed for other food while rotating.Now I just have to practice cooking on this Parilla.Oh, and the cover with slits to allow access to the storage area without completely unpacking.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tekobo Posted June 22, 2021 Report Share Posted June 22, 2021 @Basher I have been busy all day and didn't have time to comment earlier. I am beside myself with excitement. That looks like a beautiful piece of kit. What fun you and @jeffshoaf are going to have as you explore this type of cooking. Looking forward to seeing more on this thread. And, yes, yes, yes, I love those v grates. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basher Posted June 23, 2021 Report Share Posted June 23, 2021 Where do I start with this post?Today I turned 50, raised the bat, and saluted the many friends I’ve made along the way.Yesterday, I received this gift from friends.And yesterday, the same friend who paid for my KK found this. A gift from the gods.We quickly made plans to call some mates together to celebrate this combination and share in the maiden Parilla voyage.And ate this.This is definitely the tastiest road kill I have ever eaten.Maybe because I don’t often eat road kill, nor do my friends- apart from some friends being tricked into eating road killed guinea fowls when we were kids while their parents ate prime steak. What can I say other than times were tough back then.Times may not be so tough now and I am certain there are some readers thinking ROAD KILL, that’s outrageous.So it must be said, that all consumers were made aware of what they were consuming and where it came from with full disclosure of providence. and, all agreed that the numerous risks were checked and passed scrutiny. We couldn’t waste the opportunity provided before our eyes.We grazed from 1pm until 10pm and kept tossing new fuel on the fire in between tasting plates with different rubs and spices.This was a wonderful occasion to be remembered for many reasons and certainly an experience I will cherish. This mate changed my nappies in PNG, purchased my KK and provided this delicious food on my 50th. That’s a lot of water under this bridge and an unbreakable friendship along the way.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeffshoaf Posted June 23, 2021 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2021 2nd cook on the new grill. Pork chops, stuffed apples, and chard/lettuce on the big grill over oak. Still learning how much wood is needed, but only lit one split too much. Very tasty and have leftovers for another meal.
