Thanks mate, awesome video. Just got my first Akorn Kamado after recommendation from a bloke at work. Cooked one of the best steaks of my life yesterday over lump charcoal, before that smoked a spatchcocked chook using cherry wood. Another winner. Having a crack at ribs next, following your tips. Have you done smoked salmon yet? Keen to try that too.
Thanks for such a thorough video. I have spent hours viewing BBQ videos and you covered some great BBQ tips on the fine aspects of cooking ribs, not just a review of the Akorn only. I own a gas grill, pellet smoker, and offset smoker. I am deciding between steel kamado vs ceramic, and you have given me some great info. One caution was using Akorn as low as 225 and the fire going out, and you said not to worry. I intent to use a kamado grill for slow smoking poultry, and simple hamburgers and steak over charcoal. Great tutorial.
Nice video, ribs looked amazing. A friend gave me his well used Akorn last year and I have really enjoyed using it. A few days ago I was in one of my local Lowes and seen they had the Akorns marked down to $150.00, yep, half price. So obviously I took one home. Don't know when I'll have time to put it together but after I do I'm going to pass my old one on to someone else to give them the joy of Kamado style cooking without any risk. Hard to beat that.
@@andrewlopez7100 I'm in central Indiana.. but not every Lowe's had the sale price, my local store didn't but a store 40 miles from me had them on sale. Don't know if it made a difference but they had over 30 in stock..
@@littlepigbarbeque9756 It was a great deal. I've cooked a few times on it now and it doesn't cook any different or better than the old one, but it's shiney and clean..🤪🤪
Sorry about that. I got mine from lowes. I'm thinking it was a bit cheaper there than from Amazon. Here is the Amazon link. Bernzomatic 19425 JT850 Self-Igniting 20,000 BTU Outdoor Torch www.amazon.com/dp/B00008ZA0F/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_fabc_HDPMP5FY0C2D55KAVGET
That was a great video. Just bought an Akorn last week and will season when the rain stops. Noticed putting it together that the ash pan was a pain to put on and latch. Any suggestions? Also can you vacuum ashes out from top?. Keep up the great work. Please do a packer brisket on one of your future videos.
It is a pain to put the ash catcher on. It has to be lined up just right. You can vacuum out from the top, you would just have to pull out the charcoal grate in the bottom of the fire bowl. I have a brisket in the freezer! It's on the agend for the year! Thanks for watching Bill. Hope all is well.
At 6:33 u said you were "hanging out at 225" when your temp said about 110. At 9:00 you said the temp was at 250 when it looked like 125 degrees🤔 Is this gauge accurate? My Akorn is coming tomorrow so this is why I'm asking. Thanks.
I would scrape it off with a small paint scraper while it's warm. Then rinse it off with soap and water when it cools. Normally, I cover the stone with foil which makes cleanup super simple. Just throw the dirty foil away and put on some new between cooks. Thanks for the comment! You'll love the Akorn!
Thanks, bro. What I liked about your vid is how you covered coal amount, temps and vent positions in detail. Can’t wait to give it a try.
Good luck my dude!
Gonna give this a try today for some memorial day ribs! Thanks for the great vid

Love my Acorn.. Your ribs looks great. I bet they were delicious.
They were pretty good! Family didn't complain any so I'll take it as a win! Thanks for watching man.
Hey brother good to see you back. I just bought that glaze at costco yesterday. I'm hoping it's not too hot.
It shouldn't be too hot (to me at least). It's actually more sweet with just a little kick at the end. Hope you like it man!
Rusty grate

inside numbers are celsius. Outside are fahrenheit.
Those ribs look good! I just got an Akorn, how do you clean the stone?
