Looks great! Thats got to be one of the neatest smoke rings O have seen😋🍻

Look forward to seeing the full cook👍

let us know what you think @Jimny14 when you get chance to use them

Looking at the pics that @sotv posted, It looks like it is fastened into the frame rather than just going to the frame (like alot of things with similar style mesh). This would suggest that it shouldnt be a problem since it is going to be stronger.

I still have not got round to getting one of these yet. At first glance the weber looks like a solid choice. It clamps shut at both ends rather than just the middle. It looks like it has a stronger frame and it comes with the divider. My only concern would be the mesh breaking away from the frame....but that is based on previous items I have had (and not all of those broke)

Thanks @pittmab👍

I did a pulled lamb a couple of weeks ago and while it was delicious I wanted to improve it. So today I did another attempt and it certainly came out much better😋 Dry brined overnight with salt my ingredients for the herb rub... softened the butter so I could stir all the other ingredients in then spread on the lamb with a spoon, the cold meat gradually solidified the butter. I smoked it with some oak at 250f/121C and then wrapped in butchers paper once it hit 170f/76C internal temp. once it was finished chucked some very thin slices of pepper in with the meat (after the pic) and had some wedges with the wraps. I also realise I forgot to take pictures of it on the kamado 😮‍💨 Leftovers for dinner tomorrow though😁

I have used the Big K red bags and I thought they were bad quality. However my worst award goes to Supagrill lumpwood. Tiny pieces throughout, more smoke than a steamtrain and the only stuff to actually snuff out my kamado....twice....in one cook. In the end I had to sprinkle it on top of another brand just to get it used up. Can you remember what brand you used Pittmab that you got on ebay?

There are quite a few users on here that are UK based so hopefully you get an answer. Personally I have not tried to obtain any so sorry I cannot help. However the chicken placed on with leaves has me curious

They do look good, I bet leftover pulled pork will go a long way with these!

What sort of kamado do you have?

Using a kamado, I only use lumpwood charcoal and usually I tend to only look for decent size at a decent price. More and more I am noticing that brands are now listing what type of wood their lumpwood is. Im wondering if anyone else goes for a particular type of lumpwood because they get better results? Im assuming if they dont list what type, then it could be a mixture? Curious to other peoples thoughts and opinions👍

I remember, once it connected that was it, a solid connection that never cut out no matter where in the house (even at the front) i was. I also remember the last few cooks it was tempermental with connecting...but when it did connect it was almost instantly after switching on/resyncing. I did replace it with a CyberQ Cloud but could never bring myself to get rid of the et-732 since it is a good bit of kit. Did you ever have problems getting them synchronised?

That pretty much sums it up 😋😋🍻

Since @U can do that again hasnt saved me any leftovers I made myself some yesterday. Pulled lamb, should have got more pics thpugh🤔

cheers for letting us know! I used my old maverick et-732 for a cook at weekend after finding it in the shed. Receiver wouldn't connect so I had to just use the small screen on the transmitter (that's connected to the wired probe's)....no way of connecting to a phone or any device and certainly no graphs.... I used to think it was great a few years ago haha.

Would it be possible to do it in a similar way to the 'over the top chilli con carne'? Smoke the chuck with the crock pot (if it can go in the grill) catching the drippings

I think Justin's suggestion about smoke first then lob it in the crockpot sounds good👍

cheesecake is Always Yummy 👍😋

That sounds to me like something that could be fixed in a future software update. Not really a dealbreaker though if your cook came out great👍🍻

I was eyeing up one of the ink bird vacuum sealers a while back, only a basic one but seems like a good place to start

That does look good....i bet it plays with your mind though since it looks like dessert........or is it🤔 😂😂

I have watched a couple of their video's👍

Looks great👍🍻

I need to get a vacuum sealer for my leftovers👍
