Troble Posted December 22, 2020 Report Posted December 22, 2020 Just now, Braai-Q said: My humour can be quote obtuse and in person, I do a lot of deadpan. It doesn't always translate. And, 'go go gadget legs'..... 😀 Me too. I have English humor and I’m a tongue in cheek, cheeky smart ass and my co-workers tell me they aren’t sure I’m serious or joking and I like to keep it that way 😀 4
tony b Posted December 22, 2020 Report Posted December 22, 2020 OK, back on topic. Last night I did some chicken thighs, rubbed with Yardbird (fav for chicken). Direct, 325F, cherry wood chunks, main grate. Kept it simple. Risotto in mushroom stock, finished with Parm and truffle salt. Side salad. 4
MacKenzie Posted December 23, 2020 Report Posted December 23, 2020 Nice looking dinner, gotta love chicken thighs, Tony. 1 1

Braai-Q Posted December 23, 2020 Report Posted December 23, 2020 [mention]Troble [/mention]You’ve knocked it out the park with the butcher box challenge. Helluva way to warm up to Christmas. It’s not even 7am in the U.K. and I am now thinking of a breakfast along those lines. 1
tekobo Posted December 23, 2020 Report Posted December 23, 2020 I am loving my 16TT. Yesterday: Scallops for lunch. They could have been prettier but, for some stupid reason, I took advice from the internet and oiled my food and not my grates. Duh! I throttled back the heat and slow cooked some skinny ribs through the afternoon For dinner I cranked up the heat, rested my smoke pot (with apple pellets and loose leaf tea) on the coals in the firebox and smoke-grilled a duck breast for dinner. The cast iron pan meant no flare ups. The 16 did all this with less than a full basket of fuel. It was so easy to commit to barbecuing given the easy clean up and a sensible scale for cooking for two. I am a believer. 12
Troble Posted December 23, 2020 Report Posted December 23, 2020 @tekobo you sure are having some fun! Looks great 1
MacKenzie Posted December 23, 2020 Report Posted December 23, 2020 Tekobo, you have taken to the 16 in. like a duck to water. 2

Tyrus Posted December 24, 2020 Report Posted December 24, 2020 Wings with spice and cornstarch. Mix two heaping tablespoons of cornstarch from the silverware and your favorite rub in a resealable bag, add chicken and shake. Put on the KK at 375-400 with deflector and cook until done. Sauce should stay well if you roll in a bowl. Has a taste similar to fried chicken 7
Troble Posted December 25, 2020 Report Posted December 25, 2020 Beef bourguignon with garlic, Parmesan & rosemary mashed potatoes. beef cooked on the KK in a Dutch over at 250 for 4 hours and 275 for 3 hours. Used 1lb of applewood bacon in sauce. Good flavors 8
Bruce Pearson Posted December 25, 2020 Report Posted December 25, 2020 I just want to wish all you KKers And family’s a very Merry Christmas!! And a happy New Year! Let’s hope the next year will bring and end to this crazy virus, and our lives can get back to a more normal situation! 5 2
