One of my goals this year is to figure out how to post a picture. After reading this I am not sure i will be successful - it only I had a grandchild to help me!
We usually think of cooking on the Egg in terms of the moisture retention or in terms of the flavor imparted by the charcoal or woods chips/chunks and so I understand your question. In this case (as with some baking such as pizza) it is the high te…
I've had a Polder for a number of years and now am using it with the Egg. Recently for Christmas I received an ET-73 and am working out the bugs about transmission. When I get it worked out i am sure it will save me many trips down to check on th…
DUH! Freeze it first. Why didn't I think of that. The first time I had even a little liquid in the bag it got sucked into the channel and gummed up the gasket. Fortunately, Food Saver sent me a new gasket (gratis) but I have stayed way from any …
I bought the book last spring and made many delicious loaves in the kitchen. Since obtaining an Egg I have not tried Ain5 in the Egg but will do so soon now that I am ready to make bread again. Keep us posted about your attempts.
Welcome and enjoy. Not much to add to the good answers you have already received. I put my cool ashes on the compost pile and am saving up for a Thermapen instant read. I can use the money I have saved by having a BGE (not a BRE) and doing more h…

I really like this method. It works well and is inexpensive and it recycles used frying oil. Remember, you do not need to use much oil on each piece of towel
Thanks for the replies. I used my Christmas gift today at noon and it was good with just the chamber probe. I did run into some problems but as with the Egg there is probably a learning curve.
For Christmas I just received a cookbook by Matt Pelton titled The Cast Iron Chef. It is really about DO cooking and seems to be easily adaptable to the Egg. Along with the great DO recipes on the Forum (I have to try that Cioppino) this inexpensi…
This way works very well for me. Tenderloin (as with almost anything) is great on the egg. We like to use DP's Shakin the Tree rub; Pull at the temps recommended by Dan in StL and Hoss and let it rest and it will end at a great and tasty temp. En…
