Heya folks!
Moved to NC from WA state two months ago, waffled around like whoa on getting a stick burner (Previous: kamado Joe classic iii and Recteq Bull) whether to drop a massive amount on a 1/2 ton chunk of steel.
Pulled the trigger on the delightful KBQ c60 (hence why I am here. These forums are fantastic) and am in the tail end of today's session which is a rack of STL ribs and a big ol' Boston butt.
This pit is Hungry, but that is to be expected. Just makes me want to source a large amount of wood rather than drop coinage at big box stores to get decent wood.
Speaking of which - B and B wood, I've had a good experience with them in the past and it just makes my heart hurt and eye twitch that the splits are juuuuust a bit too big for the KBQ. Remediation is a story for another day. Learned that I dislike reciprocating saws without a clamp/vise to hold the split on. Yuck.
The kill switch is a brilliant idea glad I purchased it per recommend on kbq.us as well as here.
The ribs have been on a bit over 4 hours and are just about done, hanging out around 195ish and probing fairly tender, letting it ride, no wrap or spritz they are juicy as heck/fat rendering well per my finger pokes. This beast cooks quick indeed!
