    Beginner Pepper Mill?

    I am leaning towards the AR recommendation.

    https://amazingribs.com/adjustable-pepper-mill
    But I am aware of Serious Eats and Wirecutter recs

    https://www.seriouseats.com/the-best...uipment-review

    https://www.nytimes.com/wirecutter/r...t-pepper-mill/

    Also this old thread

    https://pitmaster.amazingribs.com/fo...ce-pepper-mill

    Anything else that should sway my views?

    Just my two pennies, but if you are going to crack a lot of fresh pepper for cooking I would look for a burr grinder. A tablespoon or two doesn't sound like much until you are wearing out your forearms grinding away.. I have always had good experiences with the Krups line of products.

      I do have a coffee grinder so I will dig that out tomorrow and see what it can do.

      IFindZeroBadCooks if your coffee grinder is a blade grinder it takes a little practice to not over grind the the corns unless you are wanting a fine grind, but it will work.

      Switched from Peugeot to unicorn and that’s still my go to.

      got the pepper cannon and that beats them all by quite a bit so far (and costs as much as them all).

      for making a large batch of rub etc, I use a blade coffee grinder for the pepper (and anything else I’m using whole)

        The Pepper Cannon is great, I can't believe how much pepper it grinds with each crank. But as you said its pricey.

        I agree. I saw a post, here on AR, about the pepper cannon last year and I was immediately sold on it. I bought it on kickstarter and got it delivered mid-May. I don't think I will go back to anything else. It is very much worth the price in my opinion. Also, I heard he is slowly developing a salt cannon which I will also have to pick up.

    Is This Superb Charcoal Grill A Kamado Killer?


    The PK-360, with 360 square inches of cooking space, this rust free, cast aluminum charcoal grill is durable and easy to use. Four-way venting means it’s easy to set up for two zone cooking with more control than single vent Kamado grills. It is beautifully designed, completely portable, and much easier to set up for 2-zone cooking than any round kamado.

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