El Pescador Posted June 24, 2019 Report Posted June 24, 2019 What a great (grate? ) set-up, @tekobo - perfect illustration of the versatility of the KK. And a beautiful looking pork shoulder as well! 1
El Pescador Posted June 24, 2019 Report Posted June 24, 2019 I will never tire of @MacKenzie 's burgers. The cheese envelope for the win! 1
Aussie Ora Posted June 25, 2019 Report Posted June 25, 2019 How does one cook under such extreme circumstances................... With great difficulty, but I soldier on lol Sent from my SM-T835 using Tapatalk 3
Aussie Ora Posted June 25, 2019 Report Posted June 25, 2019 Nicely done, MacKenzie! Both the cabinet and the burger (sans beets, thank you!) Rainy here off/on all weekend, but I did manage to get in a few nice cooks. Sirloin with 2x Baked spud and corn on Saturday. Yesterday, it was beef ribs, melting potatoes and corn. I rubbed one of the boneless ribs with Suya and the other got coffee/ancho rub. Both were great. Great cooks mate Sent from my SM-T835 using Tapatalk 1
Aussie Ora Posted June 25, 2019 Report Posted June 25, 2019 I am so happy with my new rear grate on the 23. I have now set up this KK semi-permanently with a half load of charcoal in the front so I can either cook indirect on the rear grate or rotisserie with ease. I have had problems cooking pork in the past. A thin drip tray over the coals never held enough water to stop the smoke from the dripping fat for long and it was difficult to manoeuvre, filled with water. Today I set a pork shoulder to smoke on the rear grate, over a pan of water with smoke pot at the front. Smoked over apple and alder. It tasted great. Looks delicious great set up Sent from my SM-T835 using Tapatalk 1

Now that the weather is better you are grilling up a storm. 1
tony b Posted June 25, 2019 Report Posted June 25, 2019 Yes, I really love to grill out. But, I'll be on hiatus for about a week, as I'm off to RI for Homebrew Con (National Homebrewers Conference). 1
MacKenzie Posted June 26, 2019 Report Posted June 26, 2019 Have a great trip, Tony, it should be a very tasty experience. 1 1
MacKenzie Posted June 26, 2019 Report Posted June 26, 2019 Breakfast - Smoothie and breakfast ingredients, missing are the egg, bacon, toasted roll with maple syrup, filtered cranberry juice and yogurt. Plated. Hot and juicy. I have 4 basil plants that were started from seed and for some reason they are all global in shape. 3
tony b Posted June 26, 2019 Report Posted June 26, 2019 What variety of basil did you plant? There is a "global" variety.

No, it wasn't a global, I used the same seed packet as last year and they just grew like a normal basil plant. Oh well it will be interesting to see what happens. 1
Bruce Pearson Posted June 26, 2019 Report Posted June 26, 2019 Nice breakfast Mac, that radish looks good so does your smoothie.what made it so red? 1
MacKenzie Posted June 26, 2019 Report Posted June 26, 2019 Thanks, Bruce, the redness is caused by the cranberry juice that I use for the liquid. 1
Bruce Pearson Posted June 26, 2019 Report Posted June 26, 2019 That looks good care to share the receipt?
MacKenzie Posted June 26, 2019 Report Posted June 26, 2019 Bruce, I just put in those fruits and veggies in the pix and or whatever I have on hand, then add some yogurt and dump in enough cranberry juice so that I end up with a rather thick mess to drink. 1
Bruce Pearson Posted June 26, 2019 Report Posted June 26, 2019 Thanks Mac. The first and last time I made a smoothie it turned out a terrible brown color and tasted as bad as it looked. Guess I’ll try again 1

I don't think I have ever seen a beef rib grilled in Nigeria, let alone with suya pepper on. How did it turn out? Did you marinade in advance or was it a late dusting?
