My wife got some zojurushi or whatever the gently caress it's called and it's goddamn amazing.

Gluten gonna make my dick fly off or something but it's so good I don't care

That's a good brand of rice cooker.

I'm Irish/Korean (or Rice Paddy) so I grew up eating a lot of rice. A good rice cooker is essential.

They look good, but I have to let them sit for two weeks before I can try them.

The setup was an empty soup can with some holes punched in the bottom. I put in a single piece of lit charcoal and a bunch of wood chips. The temperature got a little high, so I had to put a piece of aluminum foil over the top of can. I poked a hole in it with a screwdriver, and it held a pretty steady 64 degrees. Next time, I'll put a tray of ice under the cheese.

Its' all standard on the master touch, but you can buy the hinged GBS rack separately.

I don't think the Weber warming rack is available separately, but you can make your own or buy an off-brand.

edit: or pay out the rear end on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/Weber-8417-Warming-Rack/dp/B0012CH37I/ref=sr_1_11?ie=UTF8&qid=1486260080&sr=8-11&keywords=warming+rack+weber

Yeah gently caress those prices... there are pro BBQ companies that make custom racks and stuff, so I will probably go that way.

Yes. Kettle grills are loving awesome. On the opposite end of the spectrum, I can get it to 900+ degrees with my PizzaQue.

Another way to do it is to put the tin outside your smoker and run a piece of flexible ducting to your smoker and that will keep the heat down lower.

Throw a chunk of dry ice in the water bowl and you should be fine

I did mine for about 2.5 hours. This is my first time smoking cheese, so I have no idea how it's going to turn out.:shrug:

The cheese was way too strong fresh out to the smoker. Letting it chill in the fridge for a few weeks helps it absorb the flavor. Or something like that. The Weber Kettle club has a pretty good write up about smoking cheese.

i made chilli a while back

maffew buildings informs me that i'm a failure because i used beans and onions and tomatoes but if there's anything i've learnt about american cooking it's that your way is the best way no matter how you're doing it




came out pretty good even if i was a little heavy handed on the chili powder
