AdamG Posted March 22, 2022 Share Posted March 22, 2022 Im still here🍻 Hopefully the activity will pick up this spring/summer😎 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Posted March 22, 2022 Author Share Posted March 22, 2022 I am sure it will pick up soon, this forum is usually quiet busy but it makes it more difficult when organising a spring tailgate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smash Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 So many forums are being left behind by faceache, I’ve had to join it to just get on the groups I like. I hope this place sticks around as it has been very a good source of information and a friendly place. Plus it’s getting warmer so we’ll all be out smoking or whatnot! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Posted March 23, 2022 Author Share Posted March 23, 2022 yes, it is up to us to make this work of course, it has always been great. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 I’ve been busy with work so not had the time to get on here as much as possible. I don’t go on Facebook so wouldn’t see how busy it is there. Hope it picks up on here soon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icefever Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 Same with us both.. I've been popping my head around the door a couple of times a week, just nothing going on, I'm not one for firing the Q up when it's pissing down with rain & cold. I was saying to Rosie the other day about going to Booker's and buying a box of ribs, we're away over Easter looking after our friends campsite and talking about taking both the mini egg and the jumpbuck while we're there. I'm still curing pork, a slab of belly and a slab of pancetta are ready to come out the fridge tomorrow....hopefully better weather is on it's way.😎 Ice 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More like an Ice Age to make you feel at home Ice. It is all you fault. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaza the Instructor Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 I will let you know when I use it. From what I have read it is a very impressive piece of kit. It's not very often the Yanks get all excited about a new machine is it🤣. Several other companies have brought their own version out.

Skagg2000 Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 April, December or August it matters not to me, I like to be out there with something on the grill. I think what is stifling some peoples enthusiasm is the cost of a decent joint these days. Weather aside, the cost of a decent joint is continuing to rise at an alarming rate due to all the various reasons we hear on a daily basis in the news. I'm cooking less than I was due to increase cost of the base product, I'm also considering more the impact my activities have on the environment. This mean I'm cooking less. I'm by no means an eco warrior, but the fact that globally we are not currently on track to hold global warming below 3 Deg by 2050 concerns me for the future generations. Whilst my little smoker in the back yard is insignificant on its own, as a collective it can have a positive impact if used less. It's a bit like the news today, the UK is on track to meet it's targets, but the UK alone cannot change the world. All pretty depressing stuff, but we can no longer afford to bury our heads in the sand. This shit is now very real.

With the environment I think things are changing all over the world in a good way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once to burn in, once to use the Griddle and do some smash burgers and on the Sunday smoked a 2.5Kg leg of Lamb. All were successful especially the Lamb which was heavenly. I would deffo recommend one of these machines. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaza the Instructor Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 Very much so old chap and if you normally cook for yourself and your good lady it could be the perfect tool for you. I am very impressed by this Gravity fed business it is brill and once lit very easy to use. This from what I can see is just a smaller, more portable version.

Justin Posted April 28, 2022 Author Share Posted April 28, 2022 (edited) I am settled on my old weber kettle and wsm mate, it works lovely especially with the smart fire on the wsm and inkbird go on the kettle. I am settled. Edited April 28, 2022 by Justin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
valve90210 Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 I'm guilty of not having been around here for a long while, life has been crazy busy of late and finding the time to smoke is not happening much at the moment. That said I did a couple of pulled porks last weekend in my Davy Crockett which turned out brilliantly and went down very well with my family who I had round for dinner. Hoping to get some smoking done over the summer while I've got a break from college work and have some annual leave. Looking forward to the return of the national meet, would be good to see you guys again and to spend the weekend cooking and eating. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
