First cook on the Kettle

[LarryO47]

Did some chicken thighs on the new Weber last night. Came out pretty good for first cook.

[JeffJ]

You got great color on those birds. Nicely done.

[LarryO47]

Thanks JeffJ. Had her cruising around 365 degrees. Got crispy skin and still stayed juicy.

I believe I see a wonderful future between you and you kettle! Well done. The SnS will make it even easier.

[LarryO47]

Thx, kmhfive.

[Steve B]

Looks great. And don't worry you won't have to use those bricks for long.

[LarryO47]

Thx, Steve B. SNS will be here this afternoon via FedEx.

[RonB]

[LarryO47]

Thank you, RonB.

You are Going to Love Your S 'n S, I suggest You get a Drip and Griddle as well I find Temp Control to be Much Better!

Thank you for the kind words, Danjohnston949. The griddle will be my next MCS.

[Spinaker]

Great looking cook Larry. And good luck with your new SNS. I assume your going to breaking that baby in, tonight. No more bricks in the kettle!

[LarryO47]

Thx Spinaker. The Fed Ex truck doesn't get here til very late in the day, so will break SNS in tomorrow with a couple of racks of ribs. Have a little something cooking on one of my smokers, that I will post later.

@Larry047

What a great introduction into the world of kettle-cooking. It's always fun to witness someone be initiated into the club. It only gets more and more gratifying as you learn the intricacies of your device.

[LarryO47]

Appreciate it, JeffJ.

[fuzzydaddy]

Fantastic chicken cook and congrats on the SnS. I think my first cook using the SnS was also ribs, but it may have been a butt. The older I get...

[LarryO47]

Thx, fuzzydaddy. I know what you mean by the older I get...lol.

[Spinaker]

Cool man! You will be happy with the SNS. The first thing I noticed when I got mine, was that If I didn't like it, at least it would double as a BOAT ANCHOR!! The SNS is a tank. That doesn't always come through in the pictures. Happy Cooking, my friend!

[LarryO47]

It arrived, Spinaker. Did a test burn last night to burn any oils, etc. off and will be fired up today with a couple of racks of ribs.

[Pirate Scott]

Good Stuff!

[LarryO47]

Thanks, Pirate Scott.

OMG to see a kettle that clean! Just did a 21 pound turkey on my kettle yesterday. That chicken looks wonderful brother! Put a whole turkey on the kettle, you won't be disappointed. Congrats on your success!

[LarryO47]

Thank you, cjv140. First cook on it but don't expect it to stay that clean very long...lol.
