Seeing pics of your cooks and outdoor kitchen is very soothingGalanteNate_OneEa said:I don't know what's more impressive, your post or your outdoor kitchen. I bought a paella pan two years ago and still have never taken the leap. This definitely motivated me though. Maybe I'll try before another two years passes,(now only 16 stone)

Large BGE & Mini Max for the wok. A few old camp Dutch ovens and a wood fired oven. LSG 24” cabinet offset smoker. There are a few paella pans and a Patagonia cross in the barn. A curing chamber for bacterial transformation of meats...

@20stone The fork thing works. You'll have to learn how "sticky" to let it become. Also, I don't know if you do this, but cover the paella with a dish cloth when you pull it from the fire and let it steam for 5-10 minutes. I believe it let's the socarrat loosen so that it's easier to scrape with a spatula.Coleman, Texas

There are just so many awesome things about this cook! Love the setup and food looks terrific. Very cool to have the kids home, I'm sure, and that some of the guests were able to enjoy paella for the first time. Really wonderful.Stillwater, MN

Great advice on starting with chicken and sausage. That may be what will get me, and apparently several others, to take the plunge.XXL BGE, Karebecue, Klose BYC, Chargiller Akorn Kamado, Weber Smokey Mountain, Grand Turbo gasser, Weber Smoky Joe, and the wheelbarrow that my grandfather used to cook steaks from his cattle
