Tucker Posted November 10, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2007 Not sure if it was the scotch or the excitement maybe a little (or alot) of both. Wicked charcoal arrives today, cooking starts tonight (I already committed my afternoon to playing golf withmy father-in-law) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sanny Posted November 10, 2007 Report Share Posted November 10, 2007 Wicked charcoal arrives today, cooking starts tonight (I already committed my afternoon to playing golf withmy father-in-law) And when you get home, you can grill yourselves steaks at the 19th hole.

Perfect end to a perfect day. I thought the recommendation was still to have a conservative cook the first time out before doing steaks??? Dennis...what do you advise on first cooks now?

Tucker Posted November 10, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2007 There will be no steaks, we are going to do ribs or brisket. 24hrs of less than 250 degree F, then the temps can come up. But I got the point - enjoy the KK to it fullest after golf today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DennisLinkletter Posted November 11, 2007 Report Share Posted November 11, 2007 Can't miss with a big butt or ribs. I thought the recommendation was still to have a conservative cook the first time out before doing steaks??? Dennis...what do you advise on first cooks now? All the new Komodos have been completely broken in, smoke tested and per-heated before leaving the factory.. The cosmetic plaster will burn off in the first hour of heating.. Then you are ready to go. You almost can't miss with a big butt or ribs. I'd save brisket for after you get a hang of it. Remember that when first heating the body is absorbing heat.. Once the body comes to thermal mass and starts giving off heat you will need to dial it back a bit. Have a good cook.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThreeDJ16 Posted November 11, 2007 Report Share Posted November 11, 2007 I think one of the reasons everyone suggests Boston Butts or Shoulders as the first cook is because they are forgiving. Most folks asking about the first cook are new to ceramics and need a good cook meat that will let them experiment with how to set the controls. -=Jasen=- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
