Curly Posted November 19, 2006 Report Posted November 19, 2006 I think I really like Gypsy. I did an 11 lb (I didn't read the wt. but it felt like about that) turkey sorta by the Mad Max Turkey recipe (See TNW's website for the recipe). Since I'm gone next week I wanted to do one anyways. I'm gonna use the Mad Max method exactly for a big turkey Christmas, cause I'm cooking the turkey for our family gathering. It was extremly good...extremely juicy. Took about 3 1/2 hrs at about 325. I love this KK man...it's awesome.
Firemonkey Posted November 20, 2006 Report Posted November 20, 2006 Looks tasty, Curly. What are you using for spacers between your dish and your stone? Is that wood?
Fetzervalve Posted November 20, 2006 Report Posted November 20, 2006 Curly, any reason you put the HD on the grill directly under your pan, as opposed to putting it on the charcoal basket? BTW nice looking bird! I have to ask this, in the last picture, did you have a little spill, or did the Mrs. barf on the table?
Curly Posted November 20, 2006 Author Report Posted November 20, 2006 Looks tasty, Curly. What are you using for spacers between your dish and your stone? Is that wood? Those are the littlest flower pots they sell at Walmart. About a quarter a piece

I just never thought of that, I never had one of those rings before I think I'm gonna use that method though for the Christmas turkey...thanks for the heads-up And that was a little spill not barf

I was referring to the 2 "handles" that stick up on the basket - that's typically where I put mine, however, I did put it on the lower grill once for pizza and the weight, combined with the high fire, it appeared to warp my lower grill.

I'll have to go back and look and see if I have those 2 handles. I don't recall seeing them
LeadDog Posted November 20, 2006 Report Posted November 20, 2006 Curly that looks really yummy and I really don't care to eat turkey.
Fetzervalve Posted November 20, 2006 Report Posted November 20, 2006 Should look like this: http://www.komodokamado.com/forum/viewt ... ght=basket
Curly Posted November 20, 2006 Author Report Posted November 20, 2006 Should look like this: http://www.komodokamado.com/forum/viewt ... ght=basket No, no handles like that on mine, maybe they were left at the other place Gyspsy used to live
Fetzervalve Posted November 20, 2006 Report Posted November 20, 2006 What's up Dennis? Should look like this: http://www.komodokamado.com/forum/viewt ... ght=basket No, no handles like that on mine, maybe they were left at the other place Gyspsy used to live Well Sir, you are excused. Dennis, care to comment? I'm thinking you should call her Tripod, she's just like a 3 legged dog, you just have to love her.
Curly Posted November 20, 2006 Author Report Posted November 20, 2006 Well, I thought of tripod...but we gone have us a miracle and that legs gone be made whole again...and Tripod won't make sense no more. But Gypsy will always make sense to me

The 5" is the most recent and I thought it permitted piling in more charcoal for those 40+ hour cooks David will need for his Moose chuck rolls..
