Congrats! Sounds like a good combination to me.
-
I second the opinion of making a solid level of fire bricks. They are designed to handle the heat where as pavers are not.
-
The thermometer may be a little inaccurate, there are several postings on calibrating your dome thermometer. Another thing to remember is that the temperature at the grate will not be the same as it is in the dome. I cant remember if its hotter or…

That looks very tasty. Do you live somewhere tropical? Where do you get banana leaves? I would love to try that, but I live in Missouri, no banana trees here.

You could wash it off. Just make sure its COOL, and dont use ANYTHING but hot water.(The stone would absorb the soap/cleaner.) It would be similar to cleaning a pizza stone, use a plastic scraper and get the junk off. Thats just my 2 cents worth.

I believe that it can also be called a Sirloin Tip Roast.

What do you want me to bring for the keg party at your place?
-
Good job. The way I figure as long as you like it, thats the way it is supposed to be. Looks pretty tasty to me.

Thanks all for your input. I basically ran out of lump. I was using a Guru, holding at 225. I did basically the same cook 2 weeks ago except it was a packer brisket, and cooked 16.5 hours. I guess in stacking it I didn't get it as compacted …

Glad you finally got an Egg, I think you will love it. Also I agree with BBQMaven, I think that the way you write it very entertaining.
-
Congratulations! Let us know how the first cook turns out.
-
Thats a crazy cool way to finish in your first competition. Congratulations.

I have an XL, and called BGE directly to ask about feet. They did not recommend using them. It sounded as if the concern was the span, with temperatures going from 1000 to 60 in a matter of hours basically.
-
Any chance you could get the picture posted on here?

Is the table the only fatality? Yes, there have been many discussions about the gap around the egg in tables. Also about having fire brick underneath the egg, rather than just a concrete paver. Its very important to have enough air gap so that…

Shame shame...

Congratulations on your purchase, and I hope you enjoy it. It will take a little longer for the dome temperature to rise with the plate setter in, but it shouldn't be difficult to get it there. You want to make sure that the holes in the fire gr…

I guess I still don't quite fit in, I ride a Victory Jackpot, the other American motorcycle.
-
Looking good!! Keep working to color up the inside of that egg.
-
I would agree with the last post. Would suggest boiling it when you use it to make sure that there is nothing living in it, since there would have been basically raw drippings at one point in time. But thats only my 2cents. I have used the mari…

Mine says "Welcome to Jamaica, Have a Nice Day Stlke, Im thinking theres a joke in there somewhere that I have heard once before. :laugh:

Im glad so many took the time to read this. Its been very entertaining to read the responses.
-
I usually put my chunks in a circular pattern on top of the charcoal. As the fire burns on it will get to the next chunk and add more smoke. That being said I start my fires from the top with a torch. If you start yours from the bottom, I think…
-
Thanks all for the input. I'll try some of these suggestions next time.
-
Thats freaking awesome. :woohoo:
-
Is your phone an Apple? If so do you remember the name of the app, or if it was a free app? I have a Craigslist app but it wont search postings like that. Thanks for any info.
-
You are correct Fidel, Struemph Charcoal Works does make the Fire King brand. I like Fire King charcoal and think that TNW gave it a "Recommended" review. I would like to assume that the generic bag that is pictured is the same stuff just bagged …

I am in for 2.

You gots to have da beans...

I wasn't sure how much it would be to pick it up direct from them. Sounds like it would be worth the stop. Thanks for your input.
