*Ceramic* BBQ/Grilling

Not a bother. Mine is staying the same under the fabric cover

I've used kerrigans many years, but recently I have moved and I'm no longer near them. I'm sure the jacob ladder will be fantastic. I love cooking them. For a 5 plate jacob ladder, I needed 12 hours in my last 2 cooks. If you get the short ribs separated, I'd say with 8-9 hours could be plenty.

If you get the full jacob ladder, remove extra fat and silverskin from the top (i didn't remove the silverskin in my last cook and the rub and smoke did not penetrate)

Cook at 275F, wrap at 170-175 when the bark is set (it's not removed when scraping it with a fork) and start probing for tenderness at 203F until the probe goes in EVERYWHERE without resistance. This last part took a good 2.5 hours for me after it reached 203F in my last cook (it was probe tender at 209F, 2.5 hours after reaching 203F). Wrap in foil and a few towels and place it inside your oven (off) or any other place where it can keep warm for a good hour.

I've done it three times, two of them with salt, pepper and garlic and the last one with poppamies texas beef rub. Both are very good. The danger of doing it before going to bed is to keep an eye on the temps. It has happened to me that after a few hours something happened and the temp dropped a good bit. Now I use an inkbird temperature controller that keeps the temp stable within 2-4 degrees Farenheit. https://bbq4you.eu/ie/product/inkbird-wifi-bluetooth-bbq-temperature-controller/ I bought it from this crowd (they're always fantastic) and it works really well. They don't have it in stock now, but if you drop them an email they'll reply quickly. I found that temp controller fantastic, being able to check (and control) the temp over wifi even if I'm miles away from home

I've never seen shin prepared like that.

Going to take some amount of cooking but will be delicious, I'd say!

yes, works amazingly well. temperature stays put within 2 degrees farenheit or so. Inkbird brand 007BW model. I got it from bbq4u.eu

2 new ceramics on offer at Woodies.

Decent price for Ireland.

21 and 26 inch versions. The 21 looks ideal to me.

I checked it out in person, seems very good, and a little better than my 10 year old Vision.
