Sister in law's grad party is today so I made 20lbs of faux-shawarama chicken kebabs.y little vision kamado grill wasn't gonna cut it so I fired up the camp chef ftg 600. They just barely fit.

A day later as planned ( had dinner with my wife yesterday ) but who lives up to planning anyway?

Cleaned out the chimny today and now : soked shotgunshells. 1.5 hours to go but damn, the smell of smoke is so fine!.

No speakers outside to play viny so .... Gonna grab my guitar. My guitar skills are like my welding. I'm no good, but I have so much fun doing it I even sometimes succeed.

My wife is dogsitting, which means:

• no tv but music. Vinyl (judas priest, saxon, iron maiden, g3, alquin, solution etc)
• dinner comes only from brikettes/charredwood/open fire
• garlic and chillipeppers are main ingredients for everything.

So i prepared to smoke shotgun shells tomorrow and today .... i'll have to try the dogburger/burgerdog... Whatever. But that's NOT my fault, someone posted it and i saw cast-iron so here we are. For the finial phase (because i'm no idiot) i wrap them in bacon. Beans... Gota find beans for chilli the day after tomorrow......

Help scheduled for wednesday to lift in the kamado. I left the front beam and breads out for now so we don't have to lift it that high.

The far right has no table top, there i'm gonna place a concrete slab with a castiron grid. Under it will be space for brikettes and my dutch oven(s)/skillets can be placed on the cast iron grid

After several weekends and evenings of toiling my new BBQ setup is finally ready. Just in time for the thunderstorms!
