tony b Posted March 30 Report Posted March 30 Awesome to hear from you @Troble. Looking forward to seeing those great cooking pictures again! 1
tony b Posted March 30 Report Posted March 30 @remi - very nice brisket cook (+ sides!) I'm betting it was the quality of the meat that was the key difference. 2

Troble Posted March 31 Report Posted March 31 This is a sample of what I’ve been cooking on the KK lately, lot of chicken breast used for other things this is a Mexican bowl and I used my ONE Fueryr avocado that I got from the tree I planted four years ago to just aji a the avocado instead of making guacamole. Fuerte is one of my favorites and I’m looking forward to staring to grow my harvest exponentially this year 5

Fresh home grown avocado. I think I need to move to warmer climes! 2
Troble Posted March 31 Report Posted March 31 @tekoboi planted 7 different types so that they would bloom during various months of the year. This Fuerte is moving the slowest 1 avo in year 4. My others gave me 1-2 in year 2/3, 10-15 In year 3-4 1
Troble Posted April 1 Report Posted April 1 This is the other stay I’ve been cooking which you’ve all seen 100x pork tenderloin with air fryer potatoes tossed it duck fat and dusted with Parmesan cheese once removed too lazy to even cook a veg! 3
C6Bill Posted April 1 Report Posted April 1 (edited) When I'm too lazy to cook a veggie i just use the birdseye steamfresh veggies, typically brussel sprouts. They get the job done Edited April 1 by C6Bill

They get the job done Well I planned to do grilled carrots or asparagus but just too busy managing work and kids being home from spring break, but will pick up some of those Brussels sprouts next time iM at the store sounds like a great idea……thanks @C6Bill 2
wrandyr Posted April 2 Report Posted April 2 I just got my 3rd and 4th avocados in 45 years. (Don't grow your tree from the seed.) 2

Pulled myself out of that rabbit hole when I remembered that I probably eat no more than 2 avocados a year and that increasing my intake by the magic of shopping might be a better option. 4
Troble Posted April 6 Report Posted April 6 Brown sugar & maple syrup glazed bone in pork chop with duck fat and truffle salt air fryer potatoes and roasted carrots 8
Tyrus Posted April 6 Report Posted April 6 Those chops were talking to me Troble....and it was all good. Handsome sides too!
David Chang Posted April 9 Report Posted April 9 baby back ribs havent cooked on the kk in a long time but still nailed my temp in two adjustments.. 6
tony b Posted April 11 Report Posted April 11 Home from vacation and it was warm enough to fire up the KK for dinner last night. Pork Chop and Corn. This early in the season, I'm guessing the corn is from FL? It was OK - a bit tough (expected if shipped from that far away), but it did have a bit of sweetness to it, so not all bad. Direct, main grate, 325F, with a chunk of peach. (BTW - just got my box from Fruita. Sad to see them go!) 5
Tyrus Posted April 11 Report Posted April 11 The KK missed yah, and no that doesn't look like Iowa corn, they say Iowa corn is as high as an elephants eye...but how would I know, never been to Iowa, only on a map. 1 1
