Welcome Bukkie
the 14th Jan .. in 1934 on that day they 1st spotted the Monster in Loch Ness Scotland where they made the strongest whisky on earth :lol: , it is described as a sea serpent over 50 ft long and the Scottish forbid the capture or shooting of the creature.
It was also the birthday of Albert Schweitzer in 1875 .. did a project in primary school on him back in 1966, he was a very good person :wink:

OMG... :shock: :shock: :shock:

What say the clan...??? Was mouthin off to this cook that does sunday lunch at the Litho Club here on a sunday on how good the Kamado cooks... 8) 8) 8)

She rang me last night sayin she has a birthday do on tomorra and wants me to cook it in the big red blob,said ok then she says BTW there three roasts...

A porshetta,lamb and pork... WTF...??? I said how heavy,she dont know,great... So WTF do I do...

My plan was to weigh each one,biggest one in first,work out the time an hour per kilo indirect method

Found this... Roast Meal Cooking Times for medium.

Beef: 60 minutes per kg. Oven temperature 180 C.
Lamb: 60 minutes per kg. Oven temperature 180 C.
Hogget: 70 minutes per kg. Oven temperature 180 C.
Pork: 90 minutes per kg. Oven temperature 180 C.
Veal: 90 minutes per kg. Oven temperature 180 C.

Which sounds about right for time...

Never done three and was wonderin do I load her up with charcoal to buggery,get her real hot then shut down to 180...???

And she wants it at 12 noon...

Or is this the way to go

"THE MINION METHOD" place charcoal in a pile in your kamado (unlit) and only light 3-4 lumps and place them on top, keep the vents open only a smidge so as to not let too much charcoal ignite, this method takes a little while to get up to temp but once there is quite stable...

vik... Help fellas...

I'd say it can be done as long as the roasts dont weigh more than 3 kg each. You'll have to roast them at 160-180 C not slow cook. Start the kamado up at 7 am and let it run for an hour at your target temp before putting the meat in. This should avoid a temp dip. This way the meat should be ready by 11 and have ample rest time. Throw some smoke wood in at the same time as the meat to get flavour and tenderness.

I'm doing a similar cook tomorrow but only a 3.5 kg rump. Fortunately I've time for a six - seven hour cook :)

Good luck & let us know how you went.

Dropped off the goods,and took off,she was gunna serve it a bit later,will find out this arvo the story... :? :? :?

And in my haste to do the job I was to blind to see,I forgot to take some happy snaps to share with you and me...!!!

Glenn
Hi all, I hereby would like to confirm that after 4 months of labour I finally gave birth to my baby on 14/01/12. I did have some explaining to do, as I was expecting a red baby (was confirmed to be red, no other colour options possible) and guess what? My baby is BLACK :oops:
But I am very happy. Food is beautiful. Thanks all for your help
