I got a Weber Kettle and the temps maintain around 500. I have seen a Green Egg hover around 700. I have gotten some wood chunks, not chips, and like those. Getting better at leaving the meat alone, and adding more coals, not skimping on them. Also creating a zone of no coals to do...
I had a gas grill, a Phoenix, where the burners were underneath a plate. My ex-wife used to complain she could taste the gas so we got that grill. Yet it was a friend's Big Green Egg and the wonderful smoke imparted to burgers and steaks that convinced me to go back to charcoal. I never could...
Ended up getting the Kettle 22" Premium - better grate (hinged to allow easier access to add coals) and the ash catcher. Great reviews across the board. The 26 inch one, while it would have allowed for more grilling area, would be fully utilized once in a blue moon. Gonna get a nice cover...
Tony, on the Napolean, it is. And offset, Nice little touch. Feels more substantial. Cast Iron grates, and a diffuser built into the bottom. $274 is the list. On the Weber Premium, nope,have to lay the lid to the side. Not as convenient, but I can live with that. Wont leave the nice...
Went to view a Napolean grill. A higher end model of the Weber Kettle. Then saw and read up on the Webers. Really thinking a Kamado is overfill for me and the Weber premium model of the kettle, at $159, is what I want. The Napolean had cast iron grates, a plus, but they were thick, which...
Tony, I am reading the same results you are. The Akorn does not look as well made or as substantial as the Vision or Pit Boss (Costco/Sam's) but is about half of what those are and comes with more. However, it looks like other than paint maybe flaking off, it would last well over 10 years and...
The Akorn I saw at Home Depot was $299 and it is some sort of metal outside with a ceramic interior. The Pitt Boss at Costco is sold out ($399) and the Vision at Sams ($499 currently) are ceramic exterior also. Advantages of those three is that it comes with the holder for the Kamado and...
Looking for a new grill. I am ruling out gas as I find it does not impart any flavor, much less smokiness. Pellet grills have their allure, and can go low and slow for a brisket or butt or ribs, but my eye is on a Kamado for some reason. A friend has a Big Green Egg, but for half the price...
Never measured. I have it at home and a measuring tape so tell me where to take the measurements and I will
Major Mike fit me and I am a true 7 1/8 long oval
I am finding this year I am really sweating under my Panama Bob cuenca, moreso than the parabuntal straw hat from Buckaroo Hatters. In fact, I prefer many days to go hatless then to wear the cuena. I can walk five, ten minutes in my cuenca and my scalp is soaking wet. It used to be I just...
