Title: Finally ordered a PBC
Post by: Simpletom on July 07, 2014, 01:02:41 PM
I finally ordered a PBC over the weekend through Amazon. I've already read and watched everything I could find on the subject, but I am still a rookie. Thanks to everyone who have helped me already but posting here.

I look forward to its arrival.

You're going to love it.  I have made the best chicken wings on mine.  They come out nice and crispy, just the way we like them around here.  I cook other things on it, just not as often.  Make sure you post your first cook with lots of pictures.

That might be enough for your first weekend of cooking in the PBC, better stock up on some more.  :P

The PBC arrived a couple of weeks ago and it took three days before I had the time to take it out of the box. I know some of you have already thrown your monitor across the room at such a delay on my part, but life has been on the busy side. I figure if I take care of my family now, I'll have someone to cook for later.  ;D

The first obligitory chicken, which was very good. It not saying a lot, but best I have done.

The second was a pork shoulder picnic roast something. I only say "something" because I really didn't have a goal or a plan for that matter. It was strangely good though, but I think if I had cooked it longer it would have been pulled pork rather than a really good roast.

In my day job I am an engineer, but I don't want to get technical with my food. The journey is the fun part, so the PBC is working out for me.
