Finally moved to a Mak 2 Star!

[Dano11]

I finally was able to purchase a Mak 2 star after my unfortunate incident with my Trager catching fire! Good for me bad for the Traeger. View attachment 2475View attachment 2474View attachment 2473View attachment 2472

I'm breaking her in with style! I've been promising my self to try these once I got the new BBQ.
I'll let you know how they turn out!

I'm glad to be back here on the forum.

I thought you'd discovered a new way to cook on the MAK. Reverse gravity sear.

It's easy like the upside down tomatoes!

Ok, sure... but what's gonna happen when you try to bake a pineapple up-side-down cake?

Magic Happens... Magic.

You just turn the cast iron pan right side up and walla!

 

[Dano11]

Ok Any ideas on why the photos uploaded upside down? The first ones were fine? They posted on facebook fine? I did post from my iPhone any issues you all know about?

Thanks

Dano

Wish I could help you with the images but I don't use the method you did. I use Photobucket hosting then link to my pics there.

You like in Stockton? Do you know the Smokin Yankees? Chris and Bekah Juencke?

Try the asparagus on the flame zone. If the get a little to much color before they are tender move to the upper rack to finish. Use limone oil and Desert Gold. BP sells both!
