My local Walmart had Western Lump $9.99 for a 30 lb bag. I've used 4 or 5 so far. It works great for grilling. I haven't tried it low and slow so I can't comment on that.

In addition to my kamados I have a franken pellet grill. It's a pit boss with an aftermarket pid controller. I enjoy cooking on the pellet grill. I'm actually looking to upgrade to an larger, insulated pellet before the winter. I do most of my weekend cooking on the pellet. It's very convenient for quick meals. John posted in a recent thread about the differences in the fire and smoke on a pellet vs a kamado. He usual he was spot on. The pellet grill has a small hot burning, clean fire with high air flow. That affects the smoke profile

Brisket fail. What did I do wrong?

Start early. Briskets can be held for several hours in a cooler or Cambro. -
3 racks of ribs on 3 different cookers
slap1914 replied to BrianAZ's topic in Kamado Cooking and Discussion
I recommend that PBC ash pan. It makes cleanup a lot easier. The pbc works just fine with lump. It can also be used with just one rebar or none. It's probably the best rib cooker in my yard. -

Fireboard FBX11 or ThermoWorks Signal
slap1914 replied to Bgosnell151's topic in Accessories & Product Reviews
I would recommend the fireboard. Of the devices mentioned, I have a thermoworks smoke and two fireboards. I don't think I've used the smoke since I received my first fireboard, especially after the update which allowed me to use thermo works pro series probes with the fireboard. I do have the fan controller and a pit viper fan. I prefer to manually set my vents but it nice to have the fan set on the occasions when I need to use it. -

Wicked Good Jakes blend was my preferred lump until they discounted it. Wicked Good is based in MA so shipping was quick and cheap. I might have to try the Weekend Warrior.

How to use an electric stove?
slap1914 replied to JackDaniels's topic in Accessories & Product Reviews
We currently have a glass top electric. Like any cook you have to keep an eye on how the food is cooking in the pan. Our next upgrade will be to induction. -

Congratulations on your purchase. I would also recommend a trial run with the vents. See if you can stabilize the temp at the bbq "standards" 225, 275 and 325 etc. However once you approach grilling temps throw on food on and get the ceramic dirty!

Beautiful knives gentlemen!
