I think I'm Cracking up!

CharredApron · 02-23-2014, 07:47 AM

Un packed my Vision Kamado the other day to find a few things had gone wrong during the move. The firebox/bowl was in two pieces.

But I had ribs to cook and I would not be denied! After cleaning everything the best I could, I placed the two broken pieces back into the cooker and shimmed them with some terra cotta pots schards I broke up.

And got on the business end of the cooker!

My defuser broke before I moved and I kind of like it this way because I can use it either whole or in half for more flexibility.

Meanwhile back in the kitchen to prep my ribs.

I am a fan of the silverskin off league.

Then I rubbed them down lightly with Sesame Oil.

A fine dusting of Bovine Bold Rub

After resting a little time to go outside and get this show on the road!

I'll check back later, before dinner. Happy Sunday to y'all

Looks like you are the McGyver of the Camando.

Seems it worked out well for your cook.

Every time the military moved me, they broke something valuable. Now I'm sure you'll claim it against the movers but they always low balled me on their projected price value. I starts moving stuff myself after the second time. Seeing how yours is a lot more complicated of a move i hope it works out, but at least in the mean time you'll be eating some good looking ribs!

Yeah, I wont be making a claim. I have a $500.00 deductible and of all the things they moved without a problem, I am gonna take this one on the chin!

Well that is crappy but it seems everything is still useable. Not the same as 100% but crap happens and we move on.

Thanks George, it will work for now but there are horizontal fractures as well. Vision has great customer service and I will order a new one one soon. Hope things are improving in your world!

Nice recovery and the sesame oil on the ribs sounds really good!
