BBQ, Weber Kettle, Slow N Sear, Kamado - Obsessed

[Schism]

This is a thread for everything BBQ, grilling, cookers, accessories, recipes, rubs, sauces, etc.

I have a Weber Performer in copper and the SnS. Also got the ThermoWorks Smoke 4, Thermopen Mk4. Planning on getting the KettlePizza. My latest addition is a hand-hammered carbon steel wok. I seasoned the thing to black. It made this beautiful patina and is now non-stick. I used the charcoal baskets together in the center with Kingsford Pro briquettes, and a wok ring sitting on the center grate. I'm going to order the Vortex, because I believe it will give me the additional concentrated heat I need for wok hei.

So far made Szechuan Tan Tan noodles and a chicken-veg stir fry. Both came out great and the wok on the grill is just fun.

Also just received my first order of FOGO medium hardwood lump. So far I've tried Cowboy, Bayou, BGE, and Royal Oak (crap) lump, and really only liked the BGE. I can't wait to try the FOGO. I might roast-smoke a whole chicken this week.

Anyways, crack a beer. Let's BBQ!

This is meat candy. Smoked pork belly burnt ends in sticky sweet sauce.

I'm warning you...it's crack.


Cut into 1 1/2 inch cubes...


Rubbed and ready


At the 3 hour mark the bark is set


Into the sauce for 90 minutes of braising, covered in foil...


Last, out of the sauce and glazed on the grill indirect for 15 min....


These things lasted all of 30 minutes and they were GONE! They are they sweetest, most tender BBQ morsels you've ever had.
