Here's my pork neck after 19 hours in the Kamado - about to be wrapped in foil for a couple hours:
20+ hours for a pork neck seems like a really long time. How big was it and what temp were you cooking it at?

HHHmmm.... Yum cha today, which included steamed BBQ pork buns. I did the pork (shoulder) yesterday in the kamado, low and slow. It was smothered in Char Siew sauce and smoked with some apple wood. The pork was really moist and tasty so we pulled it and then added the rest of the ingredients for the filling and left it in the frig overnight.

Today we made the dough for the buns, filled them with the pork and sauce mixture, stuck them in the steamer and they were bloody amazing ! I haven't tried this before but have always been a fan of steamed pork buns at the local Chinese, but these were equally as good, if not better !

**later edit : I've posted the recipe and instructions in the pork section as requested.

This is Chinese Bao? You are using a leavened dough? Looks great!

That meal looks delicious, but those photos are excellent, very professional. They really do it justice. My pics come out blurry or destroyed by a harsh flash. I don't mind a bit of photography but taking quality photos of food certainly is an art.

Bacon!
Absolutely awesome. I would love to do this one day. I'm not too familiar with kamados but that looks like a pretty custom setup you have there. Homemade bacon must taste amazing.

It's the lens and sensor size. :wink:

I imagine that an F1.4 35mm prime on a D5 Mark III would not have been cheap, but the results are excellent.

thanks for the compliment chriso,

I'm also not a fan of using a flash, wherever possible I use available light, if your camera has the option (most do), bump up the iso, turn the flash off and open up the aperture and keep a steady hand (i.e. don't do it pissed !)

not cheap is a relative term, compared to a Hasselblad h5d it is cheap :)
