WOW! We're not worthy!! I've cooked in some bad weather before, but never a hurricane!

Stay safe!!

Thank you

We are safe, and we are fed

This was my first ever grill on my KK23 (and first ever grill on any kamado in fact):  3.5 pound beef short rib, 220-250F indirect, KK smoke generator, 5.5 hours & 1 hour rest

Only had time to get briquettes before the storm but am happy with the result.  Have some lump arriving today

oh wow, a fellow kk owner from hk...

I have been wondering how many of us there are

Was a real experience getting the thing delivered over my fence

Now the struggle for good supplies begins ...

- Lump, trying a few from Amazon
- Wood chips, some Weber ones for now
- Propane gas canister for Bernzomatic torch, no luck finding this yet

Any friendly tips?

did you ship the KK from the US or have it shipped direct from Bali?

lump is available in larger supermarkets in HK. park & shop, wellcome, they are of indonesia orgin, mostly. its fine to use.

wood chips, order this on amazon. but you will also see them sold in shops that sell weber branded grills. if you see a shop that sells outdoor japanese storage cabins, they will probably carry weber products including chips. sai kung has a on the main road. horizon plaza in ap lei chau has shops that sells grill accessories..

wood chips, chunks, firewood, charcoal are cheap and abundant on taobao if you can navigate it and arrange the shipping.

small propane bottles for torches may be available in an LPG gas shop.

 

my problem is not really the consumables, but acquiring meats for western style bbq. we don't have costco and the wet market butchers don't deal with western cuts.
