That looks fantastic :drooling_face:

I’ve been half contemplating getting that model for the summer but am struggling to see what the advantages are over the standard one. It seems like it has an easier ash removal system but is there more to it than that?

The ash bucket is a massive advantage but it’s also the ventilation, you can shut it down down for smoking but it works much better for high temp cooking.

With the extra volume you can do some good low & slow in the master touch.

Todays chicken. Roasted in kamado egg. 200c for 1.5hrs. Rubbed with oil, salt n pepper and some lemon and herb rub.
It was tasty.

The inside of the egg was at 200°C for a 1.5 hour cook time? I’d expect chicken biltong after that

I was thinking the same. I normally do spatchcock chicken for 50-60 minutes. Normally cheat by using a wireless meat thermometer though.

Pulled pork turned out very nicely

It was a very large chicken. I haven’t calibrated thermometer yet so it could be anywhere between 180 and 200.

Thanks. Sounds a fair bit more versatile then. Will give it some thought… Alas it’s quite a lot more expensive.

Worth every penny

Just been to the butcher, they’ve got some amazing looking beef short rib. Anyone got a good recipe?

Slow cooked stew. Use a tagine if you have one

I want to slow bbq it. Thought that might be obvious.
