Grills

KansasDad My mom is anti smoke as well. I can rarely change her mind…brisket is the only exception. I would like to spend some time with a Yoder for sure. They look like a quality product! I am over the moon in regards to my Weber kettle. I should have bought one years ago.

Well here was first true cook on the PK 360. I reversed seared some choice ribeyes, seasoned with Stagner’s Steak seasoning. I used the two zone method and brought them up to 115 and the seared for 1:30 each side, rotating at 45 seconds. They look good, but I need work on my grill marks. I may need to put a bacon press or the like on them to get them perfect. I have know idea what temp the Grill Grates were running at, next time I’ll use my IR thermometer and check what temp they are at. The steaks finished at medium, so I will definitely start the searing at a lower temp next time.

Darkfish89 When doing 2 zone cooking on your PK, do you use a drip pan on the cool side to catch all the fat drippings, or do you just let it drip onto the bottom of your grill? I had a pretty large accumulation of fat when I cleaned my grill yesterday, I think I may start using a drip/water pan under the cool side.

Tex_77 I haven’t used a pan to catch drippings what I do is about every other cook is instead of closing my dampers when Im done cooking to conserve charcoal I leave them wide open until it goes out. seems to burn off everything that I would of had to scrap out. I do think the pan is the better idea though.

Well I smoked a pork butt today, and it turned out great! The temperature control of the PK360 far exceeded my expectations. I never had to add any fuel and it held an avg temp of 250, with very little intervention by me.

Darkfish89 Excellent pics man! What seasoning, injection or wizardry did you use?

Jonathon I made that not Darkfish. I injected with Butcher BBQ Pork Injection and Rubbed with Bad Bryon’s Butt Rub.

Tex_77 Sorry about that, I saw your Darkfish89 and misunderstood!

Jonathon Joe Hell PapaSop Parksider Looks like since the Weber Smokefire’s have started to ship in the last week or so many people are having serious issues with them, from grease fires, to pellets not feeding correctly or jamming the auger. Just Google or go on YouTube and search for Weber Smokefire issues, and there is a lot to read and watch about the issues. Weber may have got the cart before the horse on this one. If there is anyone on this forum who actually has this grill, please share your thoughts and a review of it!

Tex_77 You know I’m a Weber fanboy, but jeez…I haven’t heard many good things beyond the market hype event they did with Kevin Kolman and Harry Su. I’m surprised they got it this wrong and are this late to the game…BUT…that doesn’t mean I wasn’t drooling on one at Lowes yesterday!!!
-
Tex_77 Yikes, that’s not a great start. The one I watched had grease fire, start-up problems, shutdown problems, & ash everywhere BUT he did say that his might have had some shipping damage. Seems like the biggest issue is going to be the grease fire and the pellets not falling into the chute effectively. I’d imagine they need to create some sort of traditional grease tray to funnel the grease more effectively.

Jonathon I did see a video from the testers at BBQ Guys say they recommend putting drip pans on the flame tamed to catch grease on long slow cooks. As with any new products there are always kings to work out. I wonder also if Weber’s pellets aren’t maybe leaving more as than other brands. I know I’ve seen difference in that when using different pellets.
-
Tex_77 Yeah, ash can be about pellets sometimes. I watched a review that was pretty clear that the instructions say you dont need a grease tray at all which just seems unrealistic. All of the reviews I skimmed through bent over backward trying to say that they weren’t intentionally being overly negative, seems like this is something to wait until they come out with a second version of.
-
Many pellets use fillers that can lead to more ash
