ckreef Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 Well it's about dam time!!!J/K - - - looking good. But I was actually expecting to see grilled laptop as your 1st cook. it's sort of a pain with the probes and cords and batteries being dead (with those tiny screws on the battery compartment) every time I go to use it. Why are your batteries always dead? My batteries seem to last forever. I even (accidentally) left it on for 3 days straight and batteries were still good.You are turning it off between use? mapett and BillCarr 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may have been exaggerating on the battery thing. I'm a fan of hyperbole to get my points across. In fact, I don't think I've even gone through one set of batteries yet, but I had a bit of a time getting that battery flap off the first time, so I guess I dread dealing with it again. The less I use it, the less I have to change the batteries, right? ckreef 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mapett Posted May 3, 2014 Author Share Posted May 3, 2014 Great, great color on your finished chicken! So how did you like your first Kamado experience overall? I love this kamado cooking! I can't get enough. My next investment is a $50 bag of Fogo. (Amazon points again!!!!) I think I'm even going to take a frozen turkey out of the deep freeze for next week. Should free up some room for a Costco run! I was telling my wife about the pizza, which seems to have gotten her on board with my obsession. A woman at my work gave me some Kiln fire bricks from a pottery studio, I may use them to prop up the pizza stone closer to the dome. I'm sure I'll take photos!

Mr Cue Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 I do a bacon-jalapeño stuffed turkey that is never a disappointment, check it out and maybe give it a whirl. http://www.kamadoguru.com/topic/8078-mr-cues-bacon-jalapeno-stuffed-turkey/?hl=%20cue mapett 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dh14ster Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 Mapett-- man that looks good. Looks like you are well on your way to turning out food that people who don't own a kamado can only dream about. Funny how some wives (mine included) need to be won over, but you got her on board early. It seems self-evident that meat + smoke + beer = goodness. Congrats and looking forward to seeing future cooks. dh mapett 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
