Aussie Ora Posted August 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2016 Great looking first cook Aussie, glad to hear everything went so well. Steve thanks it went smooth I lit the lump with two fire starters gave the top vent 4 turns and opened up the bottom vents till I got to 300f then spun the top vent down to two turns and shut the bottom left vent to 3 notches and played with the right one with holes I love how that seems to fine tune the airflow. Until it sat just below 400f and did not move. Being used to a Daisy wheel I was a bit apprehensive about the spinning damper knowing how it's set but it was no drama at all really pretty simple lolOutback Kamado Bar and Grill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ckreef Posted August 20, 2016 Report Share Posted August 20, 2016 Great looking drumsticks. Yes the 19 mm should be for your spring nut. You should have also gotten a long T handle Allen wrench 5 mm I think. That is to remove the back plate. . After some time the spring tension will loosen a little bit. It's a really easy 5 min adjustment. I have a thread on here about that. Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruce Pearson Posted August 20, 2016 Report Share Posted August 20, 2016 Well Aussie the wait is over now the fun begins. Those drums look pretty tasty. You guys come up with such good looking food. I'm going to try a steak I marinated for the pat 24 hours and a couple sausage. May go buy some corn. Did the burn yesterday. Happy grilling mate! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CeramicChef Posted August 20, 2016 Report Share Posted August 20, 2016 Aussie, that chicken cook looks really tasty. Congrats to you and Ora on a wonderful first cook! Kudos to you both. Youre about to find out that keeping track of that top damper is no big deal. Dialing in temps is easier than ever with a KK. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Bruce that steak sounds good having a Kj classic for nearly 2 years I've learnt to keep it clean and cooking things like sticky Drumsticks are best done in a pan but I know I have to get it dirty Outback Kamado Bar and Grill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
