After not being used for so many years, it creaked a few times but all is good.

Did a burn for about 5 hours at 250º to 350º then threw on some Wings for the initial cook. The Wings were cooked at 350º for about 45 minutes and were excellent!

Darn thing is a keeper! Much easier to control than my XL, it was amazing.

It sure does not have the cooking space I am used to.

Very nice! That thing sure doesn't look neglected. I guess that's the benefit of Ceramic.:thumb:
 
Nice looking wings! Love the backyard too, man, jealous, it still looks like summer there :shocked: Your grass is brown, and mine is short, green and has already had some snow...

Is the Kamado much smaller than a large BGE? I thought the cooking space looked pretty good : )
 
Terry your wings look fantastic! Love your backyard too... :cool:

Whoops, reread your question, I think the K is about the same size as the Large egg.

My XL is 24: and the K is 18", a big difference in capacity. I could still cook for several with it. :wink: The grass is about done for the year, and the Bananas do not like the cold, it has been a chilling 39º at night for about a week now, Burrrrrr.

Awesome restoration! I just bought a Sazco Casa-Q that needs some work. What brand gasket did you use?

I used the standard BGE gasket, if I were going to do high temp cooks I would get the BGE Nomex gasket.

Thanks! All I got around to today was cleaning out the bottom. The entire firebox is covered with fireplace cement over the JB. I will pull it out in a week or so after a few more fires and give it a good look over. All looks fine right now other than some bubbles in the cement. I will check the exterior bottom tomorrow where I coated it with JB and see how that looks.
 
Excellent restoration. I love the way you installed the thermometer in the old viewport.
