There's a new device I saw at Central supplies called a Black Olive. Very similar to BGE. Cast iron grate, and it uses pellets. They had bags of mesquite/hickory/etc. Kinda pricey...$1800.

I picked it up from Alternatives here in Saint John this morning as it's the only KJ distributor here in the area. Pricey too at $80......but perhaps that the going price for these things.

Cooked up a couple Bison Patties for lunch today. Added the usual toppings,plus bacon and feta in between for a nice little zing. I quite enjoyed them, nice texture and excellent taste. Cross between grassfedbeef/Moose in my humble opinion.

OK did my first also, and like Shane, it's a learning curve... a mighty tasty learning curve.

Getting it up to temps

Next time I'll shorten the time it is on the stone without it being on the pan so it don't scorch so much, but it was a tasty pie all the same.
Looking forward to all my pies being done on the Akorn.

Nash - awesome looking chicken - does the black walnut give any distinct flavour?
HP - bison burger looks great! I never think of feta on my burgers.
Tony - nice pizzza! Like you, I can't see any of mine going in the oven from now on!

Totally agree! After cooking my first pizza on the kamado, there is no way in hell that they are going back in the oven in the future! :rockin:

Hot-smoked for ~ 3 hours. I don't cold-smoke anything. Ever. :lol: :lol:

First couple hrs or so @ 125 F then ramped up to 225 F to bring it up to final internal temp @ 130 F. :cheers2:
