Bought a Karubacue. Got to test it today with some split chicken breast. Was trying to learn how big of a fire I need, big logs? big chunks? small chunks? Lid on? lid off? playing with the valves, etc the whole time.
Anyway, I cranked it up full blast and let it rip to see how hot I could get it. It would hold a pretty steady 340 in 50* weather. But the fan ran the majority of the time.
Just used a basic store bought brown sugar based rub. Wood I used was store bought apple which is of course kiln dried so it basically burned like gasoline.
It came out good. Nice even cook on all the pieces. Smoke flavor was minimal due to doing mostly "clean burn". Would try "dirty burn" next time.
