    New Kettle - Original or Premium?

    I know those types. There are a couple of those neighborhoods at the bottom of the mountain. On windy days, some of my ash might end up there.

    New Kettle - Original or Premium?

    I'm mostly surprised by the support of the lid thermometer. It always seems that the general consensus is that stock thermometers are nothing more than decoration. That could be a selling point me for the premium. But then again, a 2" Tel Tru is in the $35 range. The money I save could easily...

    Makes sense. Thanks.

    New Kettle - Original or Premium?

    I'm really not totally sold on the ash catcher for the purposes of catching ash. My lawn and driveway is far from manicured, so a mess isn't a worry. Looks like I need to learn more about the alternative functions of the ash catcher. Thanks for the info. Could swing me the other way.

    New Kettle - Original or Premium?

    Thats just on the performer. The kettle is only showing the hinged sides.

    New Kettle - Original or Premium?

    If the premium came with that grate, I wouldn't hesitate to get it.

    New Kettle - Original or Premium?

    So does dripping grease cause a big problem? I'm just picturing the amount of grease that pools up from a half dozen chicken thighs.

    New Kettle - Original or Premium?

    That might be the best argument I'll hear in favor of the cheaper one.

    New Kettle - Original or Premium?

    I'd love to get a 26" some day. But that will have to wait for another summer. I joked with the wife about getting the Ranch, and it seems like that will have to wait another decade.

    New Kettle - Original or Premium?

    Thanks for the tip. I haven't looked that closely at the mechanism when browsing at the store.

    New Kettle - Original or Premium?

    What about it makes it easier to clean? I get that it holds more, so I wouldn't have to empty it each cook, but is there anything else?

    New Kettle - Original or Premium?

    Welp. I pulled this old kettle out of storage this spring after acquiring it 13 years ago and never using it. It was in rough shape when I got it, but figured it would be good to learn with. Every cook I've done with it has been amazing and I fell in love. So I naturally wanted to take it on my...

    Folding fillet knife.

    That's a great idea. My filet knife is probably my second most used, after my chefs knife. It would be handy to be able to keep it in my back pocket. I'm looking forward to how you like it.

    Smoked French Onion Ribeye Sandwich

    The wife definitely gave me a dirty look when I threatened to taste it.

    Smoked French Onion Ribeye Sandwich

    Thanks for the likes, guys! And thanks to whoever decides what becomes a featured cook. That was definitely a pleasant surprise!

    Smoked French Onion Ribeye Sandwich

    The wife sent me to the store last week to get a few things, and I ended up taking a detour to the meat department to see if they had anything interesting (because thats what we do). Ribeye was on sale for $6.99/lb, but I didn't plan on getting any because they weren't really the best cuts. But...

    do you have a dish/sause that only you can make

    In the rare occasion that I create something amazing, I have no problem sharing my recipe.But I'll always ask and give credit if someone shares theirs with me. Same goes with fishing honey holes.

    Let's Tri-Tip this again.

    That looks great. Hannaford has been running that sale every few weeks lately. I keep screwing up and waiting until the end of the week and missing them. I hit it once and nailed it. Its my new favorite roast. If anyone wants to know what "beefy" tastes like, that's it. I woke up to 9", but the...

    "Is this already being discussed?" at the start of every new thread...

    This is a very serious subject and needs to be clarified. When you say "gravy" are you referring to a sauce made from meat drippings or an Italian style tomato sauce?

    Steak sauce

    On a very rare occasion, I'll make some kind of mushroom sauce. But other than that, I'm in the no sauce on a good steak camp. But growing up, we always had a bottle of Old Daley Inn on the table. It's a semi-local company that started out as a steakhouse 80something years ago. Its been a...
