Initial thoughts on the Kamado—not as intimidating as I'd thought. Temp control was easier than I thought it would be. Loving it so far!

Looks great, Jeff. I too have been extremely surprised how easy temp control is on it. I'm still learning on it, but am 200% happy with the purchase!

Hey Jeff,
Steak looks great but that cooker is WAY too clean - you'll need to do a low and slow to build up a layer of BBQ goodness in there!

Here's a couple of chicks that I smoked on my Weber Smokey Mountain on the weekend.

It was the first cook using the beer can setup w/smoker. It was good. But I think I prefer chicken grilled on my gas grill (higher temps= crispier skin).

Looks great. Butt.... Forget the beer in the can up the butt, use water with fresh herbs and garlic. Marinade the bird overnight in the beer instead. You'll reap the rewards in your mouuuuuuuth :lol:

You need to let the WSM ramp right up to get good results with the skin. I use a chimney of lit and another unlit to get temps around 350 or so. No water in the pan either.

The chicken does look great though!

A couple of chops on the Kamado last night. The grill has been a big hit around here so far.

The chops look great, Jeff!! I don't know about you so far, but I've become addicted to cooking on this thing. "Hi I'm Shane, and I'm addicted to my Kamado!" lol

Pretty much the same here, Shane.

Chicken and veg on tonite for chicken fajitas for the adults and a quesadilla for the little man.
