My first cook on the Karubecue.  Whole chicken, dry brined, temperature setting at Max, cooked for 2 hours, internal breast temp was 175.  I'll need to get my Maverick probe into the cooker so I can watch that remotely.

That looks excellent! How was the skin? Crispy or rubbery?

Alrighty fellas, I just ordered the beast. 12 months no interest from Amazon, so that made it easier to get the Warden's approval :P

Let's hope it lives up to the hype or I am a dead man, lol.

I like to compare smokers so I am sure at some point I'll do ribs on the Smokin-It, Keg, Traeger and KBQ and see who reigns supreme. This could also backfire in a BIG way if my cheapest cooker (Traeger) wins ??? Stay tuned!

The skin was almost perfect...very close to crispy.  I ate all the skin from the leg quarter.  Compared to my last bird on a Masterbuilt electric, I spit out the first bite then.  I think there might be one or two things I could do to make it even better...

How long did it take for y'all to receive your KBQ? I am not terribly far away, in Georgia. Amazon had an estimated delivery date of August 26- September 7.

Mine arrived a few weeks earlier than what Amazon estimated. Only took a couple of weeks.

Both could be expensive options Gus....Tommy has to keep a fresh supply of Bud Tall Boys on hand to continue domestic peace and tranquility...and  Smoke has to push a lot of Colorado Cool-aide thru his pipes to help out the firemen....tough options.... :D
