"The Del Rogue 007 Stick Burner, Limited Edition".
It still needs the "Octoforks" roti attachment, and grill basket which is in transit.
Fire basket.
Getting ready for its maiden burn.
Got oak?
Hatch, Heritage 6-4, and Big Jim chiles ready for fire roasting.
This when I started getting nervous...:shock:
It is ON. The immediate thing that I noticed is the sweet campfire smell of burning wood, as opposed to the
different smell of smoldering charcoal/wood.
Temp was near 350F, and chiles were quickly blistering.
Smoke pork, and beef tongue stuffed poblanos in line.
About there.
Done.
Plated with home made salse roja and sour cream.
Burp...
Now that my maiden burn is over without any real difficulty, I look forward to cooking a big slab of meat on this cooker this upcoming weekend. A very relaxing cook, actually, in spite of the newness of the method. Hard to burn anything when all you have to do is swing the grate away from the fire. It was surprising how hot that barrel can get with just a couple of splits. Very fun, and the smell is like a campfire. Looking forward to longer cooks. Thanks Master Keith!
