Well the first cook on the "Q"-nivore was a success. Gotta work on learning the heat zones in the pit a bit better but that is part of the game with a new pit.

She held temps very well and recovered quickly from when the doors were opened. I LOVE 3/8" steel plate!

The smoked vegis from the earlier post went into some great salsa..Thanks for the recipe PK.

ABT's were wonderful and I made way the hell too many for just me and the Mrs. so they are getting chopped into an omlet for breakfast.

The chicken without sauce was for the kids and it was a big hit. They don't like spicy.

Chicken with the sauce is for a BBQ pizza tonight.

The Fatty was good but I thought the sausage had too much sage in it to eat plaing so it goes into some stuffing tomorrow.

The ribs were great. Did them 3-2-1, just a bit over cooked to my liking. Gotta run a bit cooler next time. Those Costo spares are monsters and 2 slabs was way more than me and the Mrs. needed for the two of us. Really meaty. Gonna chop the leftovers for future beans and ABTs.

Kept it simple this first time out. Gonna work on the basic before going too crazy. This is a big step up from my old rusty ECB, so I have a lot to learn regarding heat management.

Thnaks to all of my Qbrothers and Qsisters for all of your support and advice (ok...most of your advice :? ).

Gotta get the weedburner out and do some cleaning :!:

Boy, that does look good, and those ribs are nice and meaty. Instead of cooling your pit down (which is a fine solution, by the way), you can also cut back on your time in the foil.

Congratulations on your first cook with the new pit!

Don't go too crazy with the cleaning. You might remove some of its new "protective coating". I usually don't blast them with the weedburner until ready to cook the next time.

I am now hungry, thank you very much :lol: . I'll open my little bag of trail mix and munch some twigs :( . Great looking food. keep the picture coming.

Carefully remove the plastic from your favorite 1 or 2 lb roll of breakfast sausage, roll it in your favorite rub then smoke until internal temp of 165 or so.

Fattis is any bulk sausage sold in a log form. ususally 1lb packages. You can use any flavor you like. just roll in the rub of your choice and cook to about 165 or so internal.

You can slice for snacks or use the product as an added ingerdient in other recipes. EXCELLENT in stuffing.
