Hey, I appreciate your time and effort put into these videos. It’s a niche topic so it won’t generate many views and I can see how it might become difficult to continue making videos, so I really like how you kept going. Been binging your videos. I just got an akorn jr a couple weeks ago, been smoking everything in sight. I can’t seem to get the low n slow beef right though. Always ends up dry or tough. I’m good at making pork butt though, that’s easy. But chuck roast turned out try. Gonna try doing exactly how you did in this video. Cheers, eh!

Why steam the ribs? Ruins them

It's close to well-done. No way Its medium-rare

Looking to buy an acorn ... question: what's the difference between an Akorn jr ... good deal now on Amazon ....and an akorn chargriller which every vendor seems to be out of stock on.

250 Celsius isn't low and slow. It is Fahrenheit

Well done and straight to the point. Thanks

You ever smoke any pig knuckles

Hey quick question why did you cover the stone with Foil I’m gonna use this method I just need to know if I have to cover with foil or if it’s just something you do

Nice

Do these Char Grillers hold the heat in the Canadian winter???

It better be Molson eh. :-)

Love it no talking. Just got one the bring to the cabin, have kamado joe classic in the city and said ya I ain't bringing that up north, did a cook in the city and love it. Put gaskets on both the base and ash tray and she is sealed up nice and tight. Flipped up the back seat of the truck and in she goes.

If you could show your under grill setup, that would be excellent. ie: soaked wood chip addition, diffuser plate, water tray.

I do this often rubbing with correandar and black pepper. Let it cool and slice it thin then reheat to eat. My Pastrami.

Thanks for the video, tried last night perfect!

Hi, I have just bought the Akorn JR and have bought a 9 inch pizza stone as it's 3 times cheaper than an official heat deflector! Also, why do you wrap the grate in foil please?

What’s the point of putting sauce on the bone side ?

Great video! Is that a Case Trader Lock and Case Hobo knife I see?

Can I use Wood instead of charcoal?

That amount of heat in portable package in insane

breakfast of champions

Thank you for the video. We do it a bit different in Texas; but good chicken is good to go.

You're using the pie pan just to catch the juices & it is sitting on your pizza stone (wrapped in foil) that is on top of the 11" grate. Correct?

Notice your clip at the bottom is not closed

Looks good and may work. It looks like there is just one burner for the entire unit. If so is the entire burner on for all grilling or is there a control to turn off half of the burner so you can grill indirectly? For example place items on one side (left) of the grill while the burner is on for the other side (right) so you can grill indirectly.

Nicely done!

I have a propane blackstone flat top griddle, and a wood, open top cowboy cooker, but I'm looking into something like this weber due to its size its a pain loading my grills up when I go to the lake or river or beach I want something with great portability.whats the difference in the premium model vs the others?

Thanks mate. Just wonder why my Akorn jr temp keeps reducing after adjusting 2 valves at the positions suggested.

I got 2 of em sold my red one an got a gray one love these grills Best Buy ever but not cheap but you get what you pay for.

I am a complete newb to bbq, got one of these akorn jr's in the uk about 3 years ago, used it about 3 times...no prior experience of bbq and tbh I am not really into being an amazing bbq cook either, just want to throw some meat on it on a sunny day and enjoy some food. I really want to say though, I am over the moon with this kamado, you can get this to sit at 100c all day long. Lie i say, I have no clue generally and certainly not with any comparison to other grills but other than size, there is nothing that would make me want to buy another kamado. Temp control has been a revelation to me...just open the bottom temp about 0.5 and same again with top and it will hold a really low temp for as long as there is fuel to burn...really impressed with mine...

Looks awesome, I made the same mistake today, grilled some chicken off set. Chicken had some SPG and Yardbird rub. I went over the top with the Jack Daniels smoking chips, and although great flavour the taste was intensely smoky. Got to try the beef. Great videos 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿👍

Perfect 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿👍

Need more people so spread this video more

Awesome looking chicken, 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿, heat deflector works a treat, going to laser cut one in work when the boss isn’t about.

Awesome

Was wondering when you was going to add the Molson, works with everything.🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

I think you mean deg in f not c

Hey! Just ordered one from Amazon. I’m wondering why lump charcoal only? TnNk you!

Thanks!! This was great I was struggling with this one lol attempting first brisket tomorrow!!

so tender it will not cut good job

I made the mistake of using a styrofoam plate. Don't. They melt.

internet is divided between soak or no soak of smoking wood... The smaller chips that I purchased says soak by the manufactorer themselves. End of the day i think it's matter of what you prefer. Cheers!

I have my Akorn Jr. shipped to the Philippines and am loving it! It's funny because I have the exact same method for my deflector as you. I think my grill i use to set the deflector is 10.5 inches, but it fits fine. However, instead of a pizza stone. I am using a deflector made out of terracotta. My grill was super cheap at like $1.20 and the deflector cost me about $2.00. If I bought and shipped char-grillers deflector. it would cost me like $60 with shipping, no way I'm doing that. The only thing I don't like about the Akorn is they should just provide the deflector plate, it's needed if you buy this grill.

Did you use any wood chunks and what kind.

Mate! Your out there in the rain. That’s dedication 👍🏾

Bought one of these tiny acorns in the autumn of 2019 and then the 'pandemic' happened. Hoping to get it going soon.❤

Could’ve cut one open man

Thanks for this review. I’m actually looking now at Buying a small gas grill with a stand. This looks better and more economical than some of the weber Q grills. There was a charbroil infra red patio bistro grill that I am interested in- , my brother bought that secondhand and unfortunately I can’t find a new one and they only sell those kinds of models in electric which I didn’t want to get. This grill though looks good. Thanks for your comments were cleaning it also

Those ribs look awesome, def going to try that out on my char griller. Great videos 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Looks awesome, going to try that on my char griller, great video’s.
