I just remember to take a snap as I was removing them, excitement got the better of me! I've used this method a lot in the oven but the first time in the Kamado... 1kg Chicken wings seasoned with: 1 Tbsp sea salt 1 Tbsp white pepper 1 Tbsp Black pepper 1 tsp Smoked paprika 1 tsp dried oregano 1tsp dried chilli flakes 1tsp cayenne pepper Then lightly dusted with wings with baking powder, cooked at 120c for 30 mins and then 220c for 40-50 mins. I did coat the wings with a stateside sauce (happy to share recipe if people are interested) for the last 10mins which lost a little bit of the crisp compared to normal but tasted excellent. Cheers

May I ask your method please ? prep, temp etc. I've got a Kilo in the freezer for Friday.

I always volunteer to come with the missus shopping at Westfields White City so I can sneak in to Prairie Fire, which does Kansas style BBQ. Well worth the visit if you're ever in that neck of the woods

Went naked, won't be doing that in future. Followed a recipe which said you shouldn't have to wrap Ox cheeks.

Had my first go on the AK on Sunday, thank god it weighs 80kg with that wind! Cooked Ox cheek at 130c - 140c for 5 hours, turned out a little dry but tasted phenomenal.

I highly recommend Neil Rankins Low 'n' Slow helped me out a lot as a complete newbie, covers everything, charcoal, smoking woods, rubs, sauces and all recipes done for kamado's

Great start to the day today, my Kamado finally arrived at 9am. Had to unpack it outside the front of the house as when boxed didn't fit through the door, pleased to report nothing was broken just one small chip on the front enamel (annoying but can live with) and a few hairline cracks around it. In regards to the adhesive pads, I found my girlfriends nails came in very handy, she had the off in a jiffy. The biggest pain I had was with the handle with the split washers there wasn't enough bite for the head. Off to give it a cure, ready for low 'n' slow Ox cheek.

I called expert logistics and they booked it in for Saturday but was probably meant to come that day anyway. I'm in West London

Turner and George I've used for many years and I can't fault them but as mentioned previously they are a tad expensive

Thanks Ice for the reply, appreciate it. Definitely leaning that way, just wondered if anyone could persuade me through personal experience. Cheers Harry

Hello all I'm looking to buy my first smoker but torn between which one to get, I keep reading the fornetto is better made the the ProQ but seems harder to get parts and accessories in the UK. Any advice would be much appreciated ? or anyone who has had experience with either ?. Many thanks
