    Braten 1000 finally arrives!

    Well COVID has been tough on production and delivery. I ordered my new grill in March, expecting it in time for a Independence Day party. A little delayed, but it gave me time to source wood and get prepared. Although it arrived in the middle of three days in a row of over a foot of snow. No matter - I’ll get it fired up this weekend!

    it arrived the same day as a meat shipment from SNF!

    Cool! Looks great! Is it a parrilla with a lid on it, or an offset? Not familiar with that brand or model. Looks very well built!

      The Engelbrecht Braten 1000 is a hybrid …. Santa Maria grill with a hood and an offset. It’s on my wishlist.

      Henrik - it’s made by Englebrecht. https://grillsandcookers.com/products/braten-1000

      It is an offset in addition to Santa Maria style grill. I may try a grill over the open fire box to see if I can use it to sear rather than build another fire when doing a reverse sear.

    Nice! Looking great, although….that snow 😳

    which, for Alaska I’m guessing is nothing. But enjoy that first cook!

          .

          I know…. 10 weeks turned into 8 months. Although I’m still waiting for a dishwasher I ordered back in August. Estimate is April!

            Thanks - yah that surprised me. Even the casters were on it. I had movers show up right after the pallet was dropped in my driveway. We were able to get it unwrapped and up the stairs in about 10 minutes. I only had to put on one exterior handle and the wheel. Very handy

                Yes!!!!!!!

                Looking forward to seeing some cooks!

                Great looking snow too. I hope we get some to stick in MN pretty soon! It had already snowed in Anchorage when I was up there in late September, it looks like y'all got quite a bit more.

                  Yah, that early snow was a clue as to how this winter would end up. It all melted in September, then didn't snow again til mid November. It was -12 over the weekend. Now warmed up to a balmy 25. It really stretches out the cook times... :-)

                      I believe I am going to go south of the border with SNF Gold level Picanha steaks. I ordered up a batch just to try with this. Will of course outfit it with the Argentine v grill option. :-)

                        Fantastic! That cooker was on my short list when I was considering an offset purchase. Looking forward to your cooks, and maybe a bit of that snow down here!

                        With the ability to monitor up to six temperatures simultaneously with either Bluetooth or Wifi on your mobile phone, tablet, or computer, Fireboard is the best digital thermometer we've tested.

                        Masterbuilt MPS 340/G ThermoTemp XL Propane Smoker


                        This is the first propane smoker with a thermostat, making this baby foolproof. Set ThermoTemp's dial from 175o to 350oF and the thermostat inside will adjust the burner just like an indoor kitchen oven. All you need to do is add wood to the tray above the burner to start smokin'.

                        GrillGrates Take Gas Grills To The Infrared Zone


                        GrillGrates(TM) amplify heat, prevent flareups, make flipping foods easier, kill hotspots, flip over to make a fine griddle, and can be easily rmoved from one grill to another. You can even throw wood chips, pellets, or sawdust between the rails and deliver a quick burst of smoke.

                        The Pit Barrel Cooker May Be Too Easy


                        The PBC has a rabid cult following for good reason. It is absolutely positively without a doubt the best bargain on a smoker in the world. Period. This baby will cook circles around the cheap offset sideways barrel smokers because temperature control is so much easier.

                        Green Mountain's portable Davy Crockett Pellet Smoker is one mean tailgating and picnic machine. But it's also gaining popularity with people who want to add a small, set it and forget it pellet smoker to their backyard arsenal. And with their WiFi capabilities you can control and monitor Davy Crocket from your smart phone or laptop.

                        Heat Resistant Gloves With Extra Long Sleeves Hold The Hot Stuff

                        If you're using oven mitts at the grill, it's time to trade up. Say hello to these suede welder's gloves. They're heat resistant enough to handle hot grill grates, and flexible enough to handle tongs. The extra long sleeves even let you reach deep into the firebox to move hot logs without getting burned.

                        The Good-One Is A Superb Grill And A Superb Smoker All In One


                        The Good-One Open Range is dramatically different from a traditional offset smoker. By placing the heat source behind and under the smokebox instead of off to the side, Open Range produces even temperature from left to right, something almost impossible to achieve with a standard barrel shaped offset.
