LarryR Posted December 8, 2011 Report Posted December 8, 2011 Picked-up some of the new ECC (actually Trish picked it up, thanks Trish!), can't wait to crack open a box and give it a whirl. I'm thinking some pork butts are in order this weekend. Quote
Tucker Posted December 8, 2011 Report Posted December 8, 2011 Re: Merry "ECC" Christmas to Me You will love it! And then wish you had purchased more. Quote
EHKK Posted December 8, 2011 Report Posted December 8, 2011 Re: Merry "ECC" Christmas to Me I am going to be trying the ECC with peach chunks for the first time. I haven't used any chunks before. Any guidance on how long it takes to get beyond the bad smoke and to the translucent smoke with the chunk? Quote
mguerra Posted December 8, 2011 Report Posted December 8, 2011 Re: Merry "ECC" Christmas to Me Absolutely no way to give a time figure on that. But do an experiment. Cook something inexpensive like burgers and use the very first smoke, then cook a couple more when the smoke goes more translucent. First, you will see how long it takes for the smoke to change. Then you can taste test the two smokes. I personally like the first smoke. Some people don't, see what you think. Quote
EHKK Posted December 8, 2011 Report Posted December 8, 2011 Re: Merry "ECC" Christmas to Me Thank you very much. My first KK on a boat to USA as I write this. I've been going through the forum quite a bit. Any other pointers or specific things to read/watch for an expecting KK owner? Quote
mguerra Posted December 8, 2011 Report Posted December 8, 2011 Re: Merry "ECC" Christmas to Me Hundreds of pointers! Read the forums... Quote

Some people don't' date=' see what you think.[/quote'] Texan Mesquite of course has a VERY strong smoke profile. Texan's mother's milk has such a strong mesquite smoke profile that not much can faze those babies later in life. Super acrid first smoke does not even bother their eyes.. Quote

Their staff was very helpful. My next trip to the southland will definitely include another stop. I have something I forgot to give to your SO, but will be in Fresno next week. I will email you to meet me. A very nice little surprise from Dennis I want to share with you! Quote
