ckreef Posted May 20, 2018 Report Share Posted May 20, 2018 Wanted to try some Artisanal bread in the WFO but expecting an afternoon thunder shower. Can I get the bake in before the rain? Nope!!! Bread dough is rising and looking good. Got the oven up to temp with a really nice bed of coals and then the thunder came. I knew what was about to happen so I threw 3 decent pieces of wood on the coals, closed the door with the bottom vent open. Now I just needed to sit back on the porch drinking a few beers while the thunder shower passed. At this point it's raining pretty good and we're cruising along at about 600*. The WFO didn't even know it was raining. The rain passed and the bread went on. This was a sort of screwed up recipe but I think it does have potential. I'll tweak it a bit and try again. I should have left it in the oven another 5-10 minutes. Playing with live fire is definitely a learning curve but I think I'm starting to get an idea on how to make it work. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sitting on the porch watching it rain drinking a cold one. Meanwhile Mrs skreef's corned beef brisket was happily cooking away in the KK. Good times. And yes the learning curve is the fun part. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tangles Posted May 22, 2018 Report Share Posted May 22, 2018 What the heck is vegemite? Hahaha it’s what a lot of us Aussies grew up with. It’s a pretty gross spread you put on toast or something to mask it’s disgusting taste hahahaI could never handle it but a lot of people love it.

I think that’s a “Hoover” emoji and Tony is encouraging you to down a whole jar in one sitting. That’s my take. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
