DachsieSlave Posted April 22, 2009 Report Share Posted April 22, 2009 I need my Bronze Beauty now! Where's that boat? A friend informed my yesterday that he has bought an electric refrigerator style smoker and you can't make better Que than he does now. He admits that the KK looks better but that is it. I asked if it could sear at high temps or bake at moderate temps. He said that was what his gasser was for. I feel a little cookoff coming.

jdbower Posted April 22, 2009 Report Share Posted April 22, 2009 Ask to borrow his smoker for jerky since the KK locks in too much moisture, then "remember" FM's jerky-technique success Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mguerra Posted April 22, 2009 Report Share Posted April 22, 2009 no comparison Possibly his Q may be as good or better than KK, who knows. But he doesn't get the primal satisfaction of starting the fire, playing with the fire and smoke, feeling the warm tiles, dorking around with the Stoker or Digi-Q, trying all kinds of lump, playing with torches and charcoal chimneys and starter sticks and cubes; we just have WAY more interactive fun with our beauties! There's nothing like standing on the back porch with one hand on your KK, caressing the tiles, an adult beverage in the other hand, looking out across the Texas Hill Country, or your backyard, or whatever scene you happen to have. We've all known the primitive joy of sitting around a campfire, watching the dancing flames and mesmerizing smoke. That's the same kind of primordial appeal of a KK. Ever see any body sitting around in a circle staring at a Sub Zero? Electric refrigerator thingie my a..!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Electric refrigerator thingie my a..!! Don't hold back Doc, tell us what you really think. Seriously, that was a nice write up. Ron was telling me a little more about his smoker, he mentioned a water pan and I asked what that was for. He said "you don't use a water pan?" "Nope, don't need one, a KK doesn't dry out your food" I just got a "yeah, right" look. Doing a little research online today, I found that in general electric smokers are ok but, they don't create a good bark, much smoke penetration, or nice skin on poultry. I just can't wait for a cooking comparision. Roy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had forgotten a bag of it down in the meat drawer of the fridge, so I was just snacking on it yesterday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
