    Damn, that’s a pretty good idea I never thought of cutting up the meat and then browning the ends.

    I’ve marinated meat and due to allergies I don’t use much dry spices due to cross contamination. The more I’ve seen and thought about the whole slow cooking large cuts of meat the more appealing it is. I want so bad to get a small smoker but I just haven’t found one yet. Funny enough I cooked a Chuck roast yesterday. Pressure cooker though with carrots and green beans. Black berries for fruit.

    Keep it up! I dig the meals and ideas I gain from seeing what all you put in it. I am more amateur chef than anything so any and all ideas help me learn versatility.

    Geez that’s insane. That’s food for a few people for days maybe. You have so much more room to do activities too. Kabobs or veggies. Throw some corn or something to fill in a little more space. Maximize potential. I love pork shoulder. Brisket too. Looks good. Almost as if you marinated the shoulder.











  • Makes you feel tidy, visually less cluttered, it’s a great small action to do to warm up your mind in the morning that won’t aggravate you to stir your brain awake. It just feels good to have a nice made and good looking bed when looking at the room and coming home for the day. It’s one little aspect of feeling like your better organized. For me it works.

    So that really makes sense longevity. Of all the thoughts I didn’t consider that lol. I do see even 2k stainless grills they do eventually rust, break down, fall apart at all the joints eventually. So the fact this behemoth is simple I can see it going the long haul, pair that with the insulation and yeah cooking/grilling all year round is a good advantage. Your foods looks dialed in! So while to me its wildly expensive for a grill. I do see the points you mention and how they factor into the cost average over time. Plus I have a better understanding of why one would need a 2.5k or 3k egg grill. Interesting…

    Is there a cleaner method besides charcoal? I love smoked meat but don’t own a smoker. I have an autoimmune condition so I’m very ingredient sensitive which is what worries me about the charring and cleanliness of the heat source. The only smoked meats I usually consume are hickory smoked bacon in small amounts.

    Very very heavy. I always considered then over priced and not worth it. The good plus is they hold temp like a champ! The thermal mass being what it is and all. Do you think these types of grills have advantages over say a stainless gas, or charcoal, or any other fuel type? I honestly fail to see why their so expensive. Any ideas now that you have owned them? What’s the consensus from your view.




  • Absolutely and this post has done just that. Which is exactly why I made the entire post to begin with.

    I have a set of problems and wanted to try to solve them as resource friendly, open source, as possible. I will consider all tools for the job. Open, closed, what have you. At the end of the day the best tools for the job always wins.
