Oh sh!t.......that really sucks!!

Eoin

Got some pieces of fire brick to give a raised direct level on the grill.  The same pieces along with some other broken bricks removed from the stove get the pizza stone a bit higher too.

Fish and chips @  The Griffon - Charleston

That went well. Pizza stone couldn't stand the heat and cracked into 3 pieces during the first cook. Need a better stone now, or a chunk of steel.

Hopping a flight back home to Derby City.

If you can get a BGE pizza stone over there that is what I would recommend. They can take the heat without cracking.

Pork chops with Pappy's seasoning reverse seared.

Great optics will let you get about a half of a mile down range. Have fun.

What a great drummer....and a hell of a rhythm mate to Jaimoe. He will most certainly be missed. I had heard rumblings of them reuniting....wonder if this will impact that one way or the other.

This establishment seems to have wide reaching specialties - made me chuckle

Reminds me of a place back in college called Danny's Sub Shop. "World's best hamburgers!", plus, order by picture Chinese food. Everything cost 6 bucks.

Chopped burnt ends, ham, sausage, jalapeño . Side of broccoli and sauce. One of my go-to BBQ spots in town for lunch.

I ate at the one in Chicago, but it was before I learned to cook. It was pretty good(at the time). Cool to see them cooking over charcoal in the first floor of a high rise(high to me)

Fyi

Qdoba brisket is as expected.  Not great.

johnnyp

this weeks Real Sports with Brian Gumble is really good.

This was in Schaumburg. Crowded, loud, good wine list, over priced, nothing cooked to order at our table, 2 of the 5 were sent back, and actually all could have been. Medium rare can not be cooked on Weber grills, it seems. They did have on display the big expensive one they just brought out, and I goofed around with it.
It was not a worthy adversary.

That blows Ron.  Have walked by the one downtown a few times, never stopped in. 

I played with one recently, prices are already coming down, $500 on both models.  Not even lukewarm at a G.  Gasket is nice though.

I think it needs to come down another $700.00. I was not impressed. Did not have the heft, and although I am sure it was moved around and handled a lot as a display item in the restaurant, every night, by more people than would mess with an egg, it was showing sings of looseness. Not nearly rickety, but definitely more sway.

I felt the same twist and play when opening.  
The one pictured has been used gently as a demo.

Performers are around 400, 500 would be reasonable.  1000 is still a joke.
