Yup, doing a little one this time since we only have 6 adults and 6 kids. So I broke with tradition and put it on this morning instead of putting it on before bed.
1 probe is for the party-q and the other is for the janky kitchenaid remote thermometers that was on clearance at the grocery. You like that stoker though? Considering replacing the party-q since it's getting kinda long in the tooth.
Old man was researching kamado grills. Ended up getting a Weber Summit charcoal grill. Really nice rig. I can't compare it to a BGE or comparable, but it seems really well thought out, comes with everything you'd need, and performed really well.
I'm convinced that pretty much anything in that summit product line is gonna be really good at what it does. Been relentlessly trolling cl for 2+ years for a used summit 6 burner lp model but no luck so far and I just can't stomach stopping 2500 on a new one.
That will feed the crew nicely.
The Stoker has not let me down. After having the fire go out with ribs on and arriving home, family starving from a day on the water and you find out the dinner you promised was not to be, it was an immediate purchase. Gone are the sleepless nights of running out to check temps at the dome every hour, leaving the house and only worrying about if the vents were cracked enough to get enough air to keep the fire going and then guessing if the internal temps are where I want them. I can control the blower to change temps, check meat and pit temps as well as set alarms for each probe all from my phone and computer. Is it cheating to set it and forget it?
Summit line looks solid for sure. At 2k plus, time to just hold out for a Kalamazoo grill. Those pop up on CL all the time right?
Anyone have/used a hasty-bake?
Yeah, they're not cheap. He shopped on functionality, not price. I don't have that luxury. I just keep waiting for the right clearance deal on a traditional kamado cooker. Costco had a floor model of some off brand they were letting go for ~$200 with accessories. I rushed over and a guy was walking out with it. Oh well, Weber kettle has served me well thus far. Some day.Quote:

Sweet. A new BBQ place opened in our hood and it's delicious especially the brisket - almost no reason to do it at home now [emoji6]

That's a lot of grub. You feeding the local militia?
Taking a bunch of food to my techs tomorrow. Trying out some different rubs.
I'm thinking about buying an Old Country Smoker, to play with. The Egg just doesn't have enough room.

One hour into the shoulders. Gave them a good spray with apple cider vinegar, rolling a 275.

Found a Pitmaker Vault for sale locally. 700 off retail. Still a 2800 smoker, which is a bit excessive...
All rubbed down and ready for some slow and low

Apparently there are people coming this way tomorrow. 15lbs of swine rubbed with mustard and Hawaiian Red Sea salt awaits them. Fuckers better be hungry.
