It not mine and it’s too far for me to go. Theres small kamado bbq for sale on Facebook market place for £100. Its in colchester. I thought this May be of interest for someone local on here. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/439133907410767/?ref=search&referral_code=marketplace_search

So the pork was a success. None left, even my fussy kids ate it. It stalled for a couple of hours at around 65°c so I took it off and wrapped in foil. Extended the snake and put it back on. I fell asleep and went back to it at 11pm. The temp prob read 81°c. Not as high as I expected but the bbq temp was dropping out and the charcoal was all but burned out. It pulled really easily and was super juicy and tender. I guess the temp got up higher and then dropped with the outside and grill temps? Would it have pulled easily at 81° otherwise?

It went on at 10. The top vent wide open and holding steady at 110°c. The rub is this https://www.thespruceeats.com/best-odds-pulled-pork-rub-335885

A pic of the snake. It’s 3 briquettes wide at the bottom and 2 on the top. With the leftovers of the last burn on top. A couple of pieces of apple wood on the top. 🤞🏻

Following on from the advise from @Wade in my other thread. Ill be dropping a 1.9kg shoulder in the kettle as soon as it’s upto temp. Fingers crossed my temp problems are behind me.

I haven’t done this my self but read it else where. I can’t see a higher moisture content being a problem. Some people soak there chips before hand. They probably last a longer burn like that? -

Try a local tree surgeon. If they have been cutting oak or a fruit wood they may have a few logs you can pick up cheaply. Amazon can ship next day if you can't find so etching locally. -
So I’ve got the top vent holes drilled out. They were 16mm now 20mm. I had planned reverse seared steaks for tonight’s dinner on the charcoal grill. The weather and a couple of other things have meant I’m cooking them on the gas kettle. Ill have to wait a little to test the enlarged holes mod.

I’ve signed up to the news letter to get the weekly emails. sorry I thought you meant you knew of somewhere selling them around the £100 mark. My mistake.

If Lidl knock theirs out for 80-90 again it makes all these others way over priced. I keep thinking about buying one, but they are not proven. Unlike the widely used Lidl one.

These are the cheapies I’ve found. Although there was another on Amazon that I can’t find now. I was the same as the Lidl one.
