Rainy day in southern Minnesota but was able to sneek in some PBC Bone in Chicken Breasts this morning. Now we have chicken for Lettuce Salads, Sandwiches, etc... Hope to make some PBC Chicken Salad with Grapes, Mayo, etc.. next week. Seasoned with Bearded Butchers Original Seasoning. It's a good salty seasoning similar to PBC AP Seasoning. Happy StayInCookOut Day Everyone!

The karu is wood fired so much simpler. It has a gas attachment option and looks and works exactly as the koda, but gas doesn’t get the stone as evenly hot since you have to leave the door open. With wood you can adjust the temperature by the wood surface area. Works well with very dry wood. Can run the karu on charcoal but it doesn’t get as hot nearly as fast.

Y'all are kickin' butt!! I hope those of you who do social media are remembering to post these pics to all your social medias with the #stayincookout hashtag.
In another hour or so I'll be firing up the Silverbac to cook up some hot & fast chicken thighs. After that, closer to bedtime, I'll be firing up the exciting new Masterbuilt Gravity Series to do an overnight pork butt cook (for my work lunches beginning tomorrow night). I don't usually do overnight cooks but I am looking forward to trusting this cooker and finding out if it can be trusted unchaperoned.
Char Sui Pork
Marinated last night (forgot to use the red food coloring. (Good thing it doesn't effect to taste)
Put on this morning at 225F
1 hour in IT @ 145F basted with the heated marinate ( remember no coloring!)
Will add more pictures when done.
I just went into the chest freezer to grab a pound of chuck I had ground for tacos and found a trimmed, dry-brined 2 pound butt in a vac-sealed bag. Since I'm cooking a chuckie tomorrow anyway, might as well throw it in too. Due to limiting trips to the store thanks to Dos Equis virus I can't actually participate in National BBQ day until tomorrow. The pic I posted on this thread was my maiden voyage in the OKJ last spring.
Pollo a la parrilla. Chicken on the grill. We ate the big steaks last night so just this featherless carcass for tonight. Only redeeming feature is the Hanks signature bbq rub on it..
