Looks great. I reckon Pork is a hard meat to get just right, unless you have the power of MB that is, who seems to ace everything. Glad it worked for you though and sky's the limit I guess. What i am surprised about is the number of people using this system as home cookers - I don't have the time to be honest, then then I should try harder I guess.
I have a great visual going on of you as i read this post - bloody good laugh, thanks, and yes, MB is a demon of a cook for sure. Certainly demonstrating the power of this great little oven.Quote:

I have only used mine at home. I don't have the time during the week but am trying to use it a bit on weekends. Getting better but still need more practice!Quote:

This is the first opportunity to use it away from home, camping doen in Dwellingup for a week, so perfect for it. Had pizzas on Saturday night, roast pork tonight..... Who knows about the rest of the week, but I reckon the pot should be used next.Quote:

I'm bloody starving now. Bastards!! :D
Phil, you've created a bloody fantastic bit of kit that's for sure.
That Pork came up looking great Clunkstar, enjoy your week off down there mate!
Plenty of practice here gents, I've stuffed up hundreds of dollars worth of meat over the years in other cooking contraptions bought. The front door on Phil's oven like no others just makes it so easy to quickly check temps and adjust coals if needed, bloody fantastic!
Preparing for a cook up, going to use the pot for the first time today. Amy's been marinating some chicken legs and I'm going to use the smoker pot to slow cook them.
Wish me luck!

This pot is seriously huge. There are a dozen chicken legs and a couple of litres of broth in there.

Not enough heat beads to start with underneath. So I've added some more and it's starting to get a bit of heat in it now.
The top is smoking away very nicely though!

Absolutely brother tucker f#cker ;-) ! Let us Cossco shop together :-)
Giving it another crack tonight. I've got some pork belly with skin removed, gave it a dry rub early this morning and put it in the oven at about 1pm.
Cooking in apple juice and giving it a spritz with apple juice every half hour or so. Cooking much lower than the last pork I tried.

Looks great Chris, keen to see final outcome and how it tasted, did you cook using the stone under the tray?
Yeah mate I've never taken the stone out. I've got an oven thermometer in there and it's slowly cooking at about 120*C

Anybody have some tips as to why my heat beads on top would be dying out? They are fully ashed over but barely getting any heat out of them. Just chucked a couple more firelighters in and some fresh beads and it has reignited the old ones as well.

Pork Belly's looking really great mate :-) !
Regards heat beads, it's all new to me too but possibly our cheapo brands? With my new adventures also have just blown the white ash off them over the edge of the deck. Reckon you're in the new shed maybe so not such a good idea, lol :-)
Just got it under the carport for now but I don't think Amz would be happy with briquette dust all over the foot path haha.Quote:

I've just wrapped the pork up in foil with some more apple juice and put it back in the oven to make it seriously tender.

Looking at the small amount of coals on top, I would say you are doing really well to hold that temperature Ove an extended period. Really looks good though.Quote:

Been thinking about getting one of these or making similar for home use only maybe Phil mate!

China a while back was street feasting on I hope awesome 'chicken skewers' over open charcoal/beads. They had a 'chimney' system self feeding/rolling into steel guttering to keep their temps optimum :-)
