    Help with how long to smoke spatchcocked 25lb turkey

    Thanks for the reply, my plan was 275f in my Gravity 560 with kingsford charcoal and some chunks of pecan. I have an Inkbird so I'll stick a probe in the thigh and breast. Since I'm spatchcocking it I shouldn't need both probes, but I want to be safer here. And I'm winging it using the Three...

    Help with how long to smoke spatchcocked 25lb turkey

    The roommates daughter wanted to be helpful so she bought the turkey, very nice of her. It's 25lb, this is going to be a small gathering so it's probably double what we needed, but I digress. I need some assistance on the cook. I did Google, but basically, I read 3 completely different things...

    Question about meat grinders.

    The most I've done was 2.3lb, doubt I'll do much more than that ever. It worked pretty well last week when I ground up a chuck roast for burgers. I put the meat in the freezer for 30 minutes and even after a double grind it was still fairly cold. It's loud and it bogs down but for the price...

    Question about meat grinders.

    My lady said she doesn't agree with you that $100 (33%) is a "bit over" my budget lol. But that looks NICE, it's definitely on my list. I'm pretty sure this Harbor Freight special will give out a lot sooner than later. And Bass Pro Shop has them so no shipping. Thanks for the idea man, I'm...

    Question about meat grinders.

    So I bought a Harbor Freight meat grinder last week, for the price it's pretty damn awesome. But it is LOUD, like near deafing. It was $61 with a 2 year warranty though so I didn't expect much out it. It got me to thinking though, so I YT'ed videos of other models and even ones that cost...

    Who here has a Char-Griller AKORN Auto Kamado?

    I've noticed that like 5 of my devices only work on 2.4ghz wifi band. There aren't any routers out there that don't have both 2.4/5ghz channels. Thought I'd mention this for anyone that isn't tech savvy who reads your post. This grill's wifi will work with any router out there. My Masterbuilt...

    Masterbuilt Gravity Feed

    YMMV on the damn deals, I live in So Cal and as soon as I saw somebody got a n 800 for I think $249, I spent the next 2 months looking at the deal site. I never saw any deal I could get on anything Masterbuilt. While I would have loved to have found an 800 or 1050 for some crazy $300'ish price...

    Masterbuilt Gravity Feed

    Tommy from Gallery Backyard BBQ on Youtube has I think all 3 Gravity's and the Chargriller and has made bunches of videos. IMHO he's one of the most experienced people around when it comes to gravity fed smokers. And he pretty much answers every single question asked to him. It's absolutly...

    Masterbuilt Gravity Feed

    LSS has a ash bucket grate, A YTer I watch (Gallery Backyard BBQ) opened the hopper and puts it on top of the and sears steaks directly. This seems like a really good way to get extra char on a steak. I'm thinking the answer's no, but would there be any potential risk to doing this?

    Sunday feast.

    I don't remember when I turned 4, but my birthday party probably had hot dogs lol. That looks outstanding.

    Got the new Halo Versa 16 pizza oven

    This is my 4th oven since I bought my Koda 12 when the pandemic hit. 4 months ago I bought an Ooni Karu 16 which is an absolutely amazing oven. This one has a rotating stone and an IR burner underneath, I love the idea of a rotating stone so I don't have to turn my pizzas. I loved my Karu...

    just a regular ol' Pepperoni Pizza

    That's a good idea actually, only problem is I sold it and bought a Halo Versa 16. A cool new oven with a rotating pizza stone. It'll make my pies much more consistant and hay it's a new toy. But it would probably be much more interesting to make a video of the Versa in action than the Ooni...

    Mexican Chorizo pizza

    Truthfully, I don't know, while I like the dough I never tried making it without the rice flour to compare. Also, this was a new'ish oven to me when I made this pizza so I was still getting used to how to cook in it. I stopped this dough and now make a much simpler, 57% hydration one. The recipe...

    does it make sense to grind our own hamburger ?

    Ralphs (Krogers) here has beef on sale every week. I got Tri-Tip last week for even a little cheaper than the ground beef. Don't have a proper meat grinder (yet) but my food processor did an awesome job. Also made Joshua Weissman's burger bun recipe for the 1st time. FANTASTIC burgers, and even...

    Who here has a Char-Griller AKORN Auto Kamado?

    Even with the 2nd rack it's definitely still on the smaller side for sure. But it's big enough for a 17lb brisket, and could do maybe 3 racks of ribs. So it's big enough for most of my cooks. And the thought of a 10lb bag of lump being able to do 10 briskets is pretty damn insane. That same bag...

    I made RIBS!

    Hadn't used my MB 560 in a good while, I promised ribs to my best friend (she loves ribs) of course, I struggled for 30 minutes trying to get the fan to kick on. I was literally going to give up and tell her I'll take her to a good local BBQ spot. When it just magically started working. This...

    Who here has a Char-Griller AKORN Auto Kamado?

    I watched a bunch of cook videos on it and a few overviews, looks like a pretty nice unit, especially considering the price. And if my So Cal public school education math's accurate, it's maybe 6x as fuel efficient as my Masterbuilt. I bought an 8 lb bag of charcoal. I just made burgers and...

    Mexican Chorizo pizza

    Bread Flour 10% rice flour 65% hydration .02 ADY 1.5% Diastatic Malt 2.5% salt The Chorizo grease infused into the cheese, I don't know how much I liked the texture of the Chorizo (or lack of) but the grease was AWESOME. This was my 1st attempt to make a full 16" pizza in my Karu 16. Dough...

    Who here has a Char-Griller AKORN Auto Kamado?

    I searched and am not seeing anything, this looks like something I have to get. Watched a YT video where the guy did a runtime test with 2 chimneys of lump at 225 and it went for 38 hours with maybe enough left for another day. I'm pretty sure 2 chimneys (5lb?) of lump in my Gravity 560...

    just a regular ol' Pepperoni Pizza

    It's kind of insane when I think about for how I paid for the Ooni Karu 16 with propane burner I could have almost bought TWO Gravity 560's. Or mine + all the LSS mods. Anywho, this was my 1st time using a new simpler dough recipe + trying out a LED light photobox so my pics look less ghetto...
