    Typically when a thread states "MUST SEE" I normally pass over it.

    What choo talkin about Willis?
    I think your BBQ setup is what Willis is talkin about!  Love the color of the wood you used. To say very nice would be an understatement!

    By the way  the Picanha looks fabulous.  Do you have a recipe/instructions on how to cook it?  I have only had it in Brazilian steakhouses.  What type of skewer is that and I imagine you shut the egg and have the skewer hanging out the sides during the cook?  Thanks!

    oh man, not that's got it going on......very nice.

    "We get pretty good local Lump over here, no problem and not too expensive.
    Theres also Argentinian Lump on the market wich is awesome."

    We use to get Argentinian lump here in Texas, one of the best I ever used, mild flavor, burned long, cheap and came in 6.6 lb bags - perfect size for the large.     Dang distributor quit carrying it......

    enjoy your new set up.

    Actually, the "MUST SEE" didnt come from me, must have been added by one of the moderators. ;-)



    The Picanha is quite easy to cook. Just divide the meat into 3 or 4
    portions and put them ona wide skewer. I used one from argentina that a
    friend brought over, but any wide skewer will do. Coat the meat with a
    lot of kosher salt and let the chill come out of it at room temperature,
    about 60 Minutes.

    I usually have about 400 F in the egg and just lay the skewer on top of
    the egg base and close the lid. Its not toally closed but that doesnt
    matter here. Turn the skewer about every 3 or 4 minutes and after about
    10-15 minutes when the outside is getting nice and crisp you can cut off
    the first layer. Then put the spit back on and let it get a new crust.

    Don,

    Wow! Incredible.

    I don't know what you have under the stones your egg is sitting on but you might want to read this article.

    Have you fired them all up at once?

    Thanks Serial Griller,

    i think i have that covered though. Those Stones are 2 1/2 inches thick and dont get very hot at all.
    Anyway, i put some 3/8 inch non flammable drywall between the stones and the wood, just in case. I think that should do it.
