Fireboard 2 w/blower consuming too much fuel
Henry B 3 replied to Sak231's topic in Accessories & Product Reviews
I without a doubt agree with LargeRedJoe, it does seem counterintuitive. Over night cooks, I have always had the top vent barely open with plenty of lump left over. Now, I cant wait to do an overnight with the vent opened up. I'm really curious now. -
I just saw this for the first time. Mine also had a flaw, that eventually cracked. The steaks, fish, hamburgers and veggies came out perfectly. Yours should be the same. No worries and just cook with it. By now you probably have and I bet you are glad you did. Update, will ya?

Another Fireboard 2 Drive Pro question
Henry B 3 replied to T_om's topic in Accessories & Product Reviews
I played with my Fireboard equipment today including the fan for the first time today. Worked great. I have had a Pit Bull for many, many years and it just died, to use it I had to choke it way down . Love Pit Bull, performed in the heat, rain, extremely cold temps (Texas, anything below 60) flawlessly. But I opted to stay with one brand. Gotta say it looks really cool in an Alien kinda way. Not sure about the reliably yet. -
Stand For Fireboard 2 or Fireboard 2 Drive
Henry B 3 replied to T_om's topic in Accessories & Product Reviews
I have absolutely no idea how this works, but this is ridiculously cool. So I gotta ask, how much did all of this cost? I see a business opportunity here. -

I used to make these years ago, one of the benefits of growing up in Louisiana.

I got this, you're gonna get fixed up. Had second malfunction while cooking, temps around 400. I do my best thinking in an emergency, anyway, I ran to where I knew I had washers from my Big Green Egg that broke and took those and placed those washers behind the mount of the latch on the bottom. And I am here to tell you it worked perfectly and still does. I did not get burned and chicken came out perfect. By golly I think I'm genius material now. I have a hybrid Joe now, so am I disqualified from this forum?

Be very cautious with KJ soapstone
Henry B 3 replied to Henry B 3's topic in Accessories & Product Reviews
A little late response, had a couple of hand surgeries. 1. prep meat a couple of hours before, then the Joe 2. Start it up, using star looking separator placed in the middle tier 3. Stone and grill on each side, with temp up around 500, using thermogun. And that's pretty much it, thermopen tells me when its time to pull 'em. I don't bother setting on grill side as intended as its more of a safety issue as I don't want them to fall into fire. Did that flipping some fish. But they have that beautiful char I want. I have found more char-middle, less char-top. I just have not found any benefit to using higher temps other than burning myself quicker and I have had plenty of those. -

I've recently had to make some adjustments while cooking as I could not open the bottom latch from the top. Allen screw failed, so I took a couple of washers from my BGE and placed them between the lower ring and assembly and works better than ever. Hopefully this information can help someone, preferably while not cooking and yes, I check this kind of stuff before I start.

My issues I believe are ring expansion. In the middle of my cook with $100 worth of meat I could not open it. Allen wrench did not fix it, so I adjusted the dome bands. It worked. But I am noticing a developing dome alignment issues. Same thing that I had with my Egg. I am getting concerned.

We put away a lot of fish and that’s where I find the soapstone most beneficial. Superb for veggies according to the boss of my home.
-
Weight? No idea. That being said, I’m a big eater so two myself and when my sons are around two for each of them. My wife and daughter share one. Hope this helps a little.

Besides a fork? Absolutely. Just pulled these Dino ribs from one side and brisket burgers on the other. Still smelling like smoke.

Be very cautious with KJ soapstone
Henry B 3 replied to Henry B 3's topic in Accessories & Product Reviews
Talk about ridiculous fantastic service, KJ replaced it without me even asking! Now a days how does that happen without some form of threat? I am now a costumer/advocate for life and need one of their hats. K.J. simply did a followup, asked for pictures, confirmed my address and replacement was at front door. I just had hand surgery on 3 fingers and a thumb and am just now able to type. There really are good people and respectable businesses in this world. -
The most loved accessory I had. After using it for the 6th time, it split right down the middle. My prior cooks clocked in around 500, the last was at 720. It produced fantastic ribeyes. Opened it up a little later and right down the center. A side crack I could have worked with, but the center? Never shocked it with abrupt temp changes. This has to be a flaw in the stone as everything KJ has put out, at least for me has been fantastic. So any suggestions to other manufactures of soapstones? I found a few but I would rather hear from y'all.
