Eddie mac Posted January 2, 2018 Report Share Posted January 2, 2018 This past November 24th I took delivery of my terra blue Komodo BB32.The truck pulled up backed in my driveway and dropped it on my driveway.I stood there staring at the crate for a moment admiring the crate how well it was crated.I got my tractor out of the garage and put the pallet forks on and proceeded to move the grate to my patio. I removed the 8 lag bolts and lifted the grate up and over, I was at awe at the sight I saw.I started to unwrap it everything was protected to the max unbelievably thought out and designed to protect your grill not a scratch or ding anywhere.My wife and could not believe the weight of the grates the beauty of the KK the fit and finish.I own many grills and smokers been BBQ for over25 years this was the best experience.That we have ever had smooth as silk from talking to Dennis to ordering to delivery.amazing experience.I got a chance to do the venting on the grill before the temps here went artic very easy to control compare to my oth kamados very stable once you reach your desired temp and holds rock solid with out playing with the dampers.Iam not used to that my BGE,primo and KJ needs vent adjustment as charcoal burns.Forget my big reverse flow offset constant fire management on that unit even my 2 custom drum smoker need watching for temp management.When I vented it I was increasing the temps slowly very easy to control then I raised to 550 and sat there for 10 hours with out touching a thing it was about 25 degrees and windy that day filled charcoal basket twice. Then I raised it to 650 for 2 hours amazing temp control.Now Customor service wow amazing call Dennis many time on advice always there early morning late night he is truly amazing guy.If you are considering on purchasing one do it you will love it.If you are on the fence and not sure I invite you to my place to check one out and we will cook on it then you will see for yourself. I have other cookers that you can compare to for yourself just message me and I’ll make the time for you. I want to thank Dennis Linkletter again 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tekobo Posted January 2, 2018 Report Share Posted January 2, 2018 I couldn't agree more Eddie. Excellent experience for me too so far. A BB32. Maybe I will get one of those when I grow up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrus Posted January 2, 2018 Report Share Posted January 2, 2018 Hope to take you up on the invite soon Ed but this weather is crimping my style and everyone elses. Sounds as if you have the same type of kettles as I and been at it around the same length of time. I find it enjoyable and look forward to go out and cook something on those beasts but the pleasure is truly in offering. Happy New Year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep warm guys Keeping warm by continually running two pellet stoves, out to the store every day to replenish the supply. I was thinking if all those bags of pellets I have were lump coal I'd never have to worry, be set for life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tony b Posted January 2, 2018 Report Share Posted January 2, 2018 Welcome to my world, folks! We haven't been above freezing since before Christmas and have spent the better part of the last week below zero! On the bright side, we didn't get 4 - 5 ft of snow like upstate NY! 2 hours ago, 5698k said: I just saw that it’s colder in Louisiana than in Alaska. That’s my story and I’m stickin with it. By gawd, he's right. It's colder in Baton Rouge than in Anchorage today. I just verified it! Do whatever it takes to stay warm, ya'll. My preferred method is called bourbon! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was making a sauce for Jerk Chicken wings and had to buy some Habernaros. Now I'm not a pepper officiado at all, so I gave it bite, they looked so nice and orange and all. Let me tell ya Purple crack don't stand a chance next to this demon. Although it does warm the lips for a 1/2 hr or so, and don't scratch your nose cause it spreads, could be good for the chapped lips. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you think habaneros/Scotch bonnets are hot, don't go anywhere near Scorpion, Ghost or Carolina Reaper. They are much, much hotter! I love habaneros for their flavor and the heat level is just right for me, when cut with other ingredients in sauces, marinades and salsas. Not a pepper that I'd eat plain, for sure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see what you mean! Luckily never got there. Anyhow I bought a bundle of these devils and only needed a couple, can I freeze them or are they trash.
