What's on the grill or smoker?

Looks like 3 with Ham, Swiss and American.
And perhaps a steak w/green peppers.. can't see the cheese.

 

Yep, the wifey put some stuff on. I believe it was soy sauce and minced garlic. Not my first choice but it is what we had already.

 

I like both so might not be to bad.

 

Question to the pit masters here - Might be having a little get together this weekend which gives me a good excuse to smoke something. I was thinking a chuck roast since I've never done one and have heard good things. Should I expect it to take as long as a brisket or longer? Thinking 5lb range. From what I gather it seems a little more forgiving than a brisket although I've never really had issues with making a decent brisket in the past. I have a feeling it's something that's going to take longer than I really want it to so if that's the case I may just end up sticking with ribs.

 

Mostly like doing a brisket. They are juicer than a brisket, though. I like them a lot. You can undercook a chuckie a bit and it’ll still be good. Hadn’t made one in over a year. I gotta get back to smokin meats again.

 

Thanks Al. I've heard in the past that people ended up liking them more than brisket. I could see that happening for me since they are considerably cheaper than brisket I can get around here.

 

I've done both and I personally like the Chuck roast better than brisket. I cook them both to 205 degrees.

 

its swiss and american,grilled sirloin strips,ham,and bread and butter pickles

 

A very nicely marbled Angus chuckie

 

Nothing special, just burgers for my lunch today and the rest of the week. This was more of a test, it's around 16* and overcast but my kamado does not care at all. Did I mention how much I like this type of cooker?
Pretty much Skeeters fault that I got this.

 

now you need to move along....and get a kamado joe

 

Can't see that there's a difference between any of them other than hardware maybe.
I don't know, remember I found this at a "surplus" place, new for less than half the price of the Joe's or egg's. Made in USA including the clay pot.
I'll defer to you, edumacate me as all I know about the others is just looking at them in a showroom.
Hey what's that big stainless rig you showed above with the big charcoal drawer?

 

She's lookin good

 

It's a lone star grillz .
If you happy with the primo cooker then your all set.
lifes too short to wear blinders and be set in ones ways so i try to sample as many cookers over the years that i can...if your happy with what you got run it!and i know yer runnin it

 

You certainly have a nice "fleet" of meat machines!

 

I'm not rude or arrogant sorry if I look that way.....sometimes I am but I mighta came off the wrong way there I mean no disrespect.
But to answer your question about the difference in kamados,i just prefer the joe cause of the possibilities in accessories and it just flat out a better cooker

 

I love my Kamado Joe also but I really want to add a Traeger to my grill fleet at some point.
