Tiled KK in colder climates

Recommended Posts

I am being serious... :twisted:

I emigrated from Amsterdam to Sydney (so I sorta know what snow is...)

PS Aussie Blue agrees with me that although he can withstand cold weather he'd rather not 8)

Sanny honey' date=' you know when we see minus 20 temperatures here in So Cal? When we look at that photo you posted. :wave:[/quote']

That photo is an aberration, Prof! I was with Snooky at a job interview in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. Went into Yellowstone for the day. brrrr.

Even the bison were cold. :shock:

I spatchcocked a chicken last night in the snow and 18 degrees. This is my first winter using the KK, and it hasn't skipped a beat. I've cooked in below zero weather, no problems. (BTW, Madison set it's all time snow record for the season this year! :smt038 )

Looks great! Gotta post more pics myself! Not much warmer down here! Did you make gravy with the drippings? Couldn't help but notice( in true cheese head fashion) the absence of anything green. :D

just kidding

Green frequently indicates spoilage. This is especially the case in those months (and climates) in which there is no greenness in the outdoors. Unhealthy to eat green things in months containing an "R." Just like oysters.

:wink:

Fetzer, I'm playing catch-up here.

Finally got me Verizon wireless broadband for my home laptop; now bringing it to work to access the forum. Even though I could never access KK forum on work equipment; I never liked consenting to monitoring either. Now I'm killing both birds with one stone. :D

Anyway, Fetzer, you must have missed this storm?? Now here's a pretty good coating of ice in Iowa! I see why you're not having tile problems; you have great protection. :wink: I covered my K too late in life, and as most know have had tile issues.

Check out the exposed aggrigate concrete; solid coating of ice!

This winter when it hasn't been ice, it's been snow. We haven't missed many! I'll take the snow, it usually doesn't make the power go out! :)

No kidding!!! We lost power too!

Was quite happy with the little used generator I bought for $75 at a garage sale just a month prior. And thank goodness gas fireplaces still work without power.
