Folks I regret it but we are delayed in announcing the Gold Medal Giveaway winner. We've got some lingering IT issues with the migration to the new server. Until those get squared away we can't generate the member listing we use to select a winner. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that this will get resolved over the weekend and I'll be able to send the member list to our selection service Monday.

The KEG arrived very promptly (RUSHED) and delivered on a pallet. Unfortunately, I had to leave for Japan later that day and it sat in its box on the pallet for a couple of weeks for my return.
It was only this past weekend that my son and I could assemble, season, and tryout for the first time.
We are very pleased with our first results and think we will improve with practice. We were a little in a hurry and probably didn't let the whole unit stabilize temperature before introducing the meat, and had a little trouble controlling the temperature at our desired 230 F for awhile. We used very little fuel, and topped it up twice during the cooking period.
Forgot to mention applying Memphis rub about an hour before putting pork on grill.
We recognized that we would need to eat before the pork was ready, so we fired up the Traeger grill (seen in the background of some of the pictures) and roasted a chicken - 40 minutes to perfection every time!8 PhotosLast edited by fuji; June 13, 2016, 10:23 AM.

Great maiden cook on that bad boy Guest ... That looks perfect.
I'd suggest you and your son take a day and load your firebox full and just practice hitting various temps until you've got a good feel for it. You will be much more comfortable using your new cooker after that exercise. Chasing temps is frustrating.😁Last edited by Breadhead; June 13, 2016, 11:33 AM.

Large Big Green Egg, Weber Performer Deluxe, Weber Smokey Joe Silver, Fireboard Drive, 3 DigiQs, lots of Thermapens, and too much other stuff to mention.
Once you have your unit's individual characteristics figured out, you will be able to dial it in from the get-go. And, if the keg is like other kamados, the best procedure is to fill that son of a gun up; when the cook is done you shut the vents and re-use whatever is left for the next cook, usually adding fresh fuel on top but always cycling partially burned fuel. For me the only exception is brisket, which can go past the 12 hour limit.Originally posted by fuji View PostWe are very pleased with our first results and think we will improve with practice.
