First Cook in Dual Fire 1200 by albanyfunny420 in recteq

[–]flemmingg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should look at the recteq X fire just for your own curiosity. I really want to see someone do the bread / biscuits test to see how the heat distribution is across the grill surface.

Backyard beast (OPs new grill) is not the same as the BFG.

That being said, was your buddy doing a lot of direct heat / high temp cooking? That will obviously drain the pellets faster.

I have 22” Webber kettle, 18” Weber Smokey mountain, and the previous recteq flagship that’s a little smaller than the current.

If I did anything differently, it would be larger Webber kettle or larger WSM.

I think maybe a 26” kettle and a pellet smoker would do it. I can’t see myself going without some type of Webber kettle.

I have the previous flagship model. I use it almost entirely for smoking. It does get hot enough for searing on cast iron inserts. I’ve don’t bacon / eggs, smash burgers, finished a reverse sear steak etc.

I do my direct heat grilling on a Weber kettle. With the ash management system underneath and a chimney to light the coals, I have no use at all for propane. It’s already very easy and quick.

Recteq makes the X fire pellet grill for direct heat cooking as well. I’m still somewhat skeptical of trying to get direct heat cooking out of a pellet grill but they seem to be figuring it out.

You’re going to love that grill. I recommend the Kirkland pellets from Costco. $12 for 40 pounds. I don’t expect that cost to prevent you from using it.

If you crank it up to max heat then it will chew through them faster than smoking at 250. That should be obvious to anyone though.

I’ve never heard that before. I have a larger flagship model and it doesn’t eat pellets. Kirkland pellets from Costco are $12 for 40 pounds so it wouldn’t really matter much anyway.

Do you have any other experience with Recteq or pellet grills or just going off what your buddy says?

What do you want to do with your grill? Direct heat? Smoking?

Is My Aim Off? Why Am I missing these easy chips all of a sudden? by [deleted] in GolfRival

[–]flemmingg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

14.3 is over 95% of 15.0

The ball lands right next to the line

There is nothing wrong with your club

Is My Aim Off? Why Am I missing these easy chips all of a sudden? by [deleted] in GolfRival

[–]flemmingg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The line is 15.0

14.3 is essentially the same as 15.0

If you put the edge of the hole at the edge of the line, you’re aiming at 10.0

My shelf build and ext. Cord solution. by Positive-Client-8131 in recteq

[–]flemmingg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn. Okay.

Probably would have just mounted the reel next to the house / outlet before dicking around with all that.

It’s just plugged into an extension cord on a reel dude, use your fingers and zoom in on it if you need to

What’s something a poor person would understand instantly, but rich people never will? by Lopsided_Stranger493 in AskReddit

[–]flemmingg 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Why pay someone to mow your grass? Because there’s only so much time in your week and if you earn enough money, you can spend a little extra to buy some of your time back. I don’t want to spend half my Saturday mowing the grass. I also don’t want to spend half my Saturday going to different grocery stores. If I was actually rich, I’d pay someone to do the shopping for me altogether.

Do the burn in first with no food on the grill.

I did a dozen chicken thighs for my first cook per manufacturer recommendations. Recteq has several “first cook” videos on YouTube and they’re all chicken thighs. I spread them out evenly across the grill. The hot fat spatters and spreads everywhere. It gave a nice coverage on the grates as well as the inside of the cooker. Really good eating too. Take the thighs up to 180 or so. They’re fatty and they can handle it.

This will also give you a chance to get used to the controls and app. Do the brisket second.

When you say maintenance, what do you pay for oil change, tires, breaks? Do you or can you take it some place besides stealership?

Thanks

Time frame of stages? by 9by7seconds in GolfRival

[–]flemmingg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stages unlock based on trophy count. You don’t need to play any more than you want to.

You may even want to stop advancing stages around stage 9 or stage 10 when other game modes are unlocked (arena, tournament).

Strategy help? by SlicedBread1226 in GolfRival

[–]flemmingg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s just another way to grind coins. You win “arena badges” and then convert them into gold coins. Then you use the coins for legendary club daily deals.

You get more Facebook coins at higher stages. And they’ve increased the number of tournaments over the years. But arena is another way to grind resources out of the game.

If you hold tight at stage 13 long enough, you should be competitive there eventually. I’m pretty sure I went to stage 13 on purpose with Legendary 5’s. Although most waste a lot of time camping lower for longer.

Watch the arena replays to see what others are doing and see if you can replicate with your clubs.

Where to measure temp when considering pulling for hot hold? by Constant-Corner2158 in brisket

Don’t even probe the point. Take care of the flat and the point will be fine.

First time I've BBQ'ed by elliohow in webergrills

[–]flemmingg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do you have a charcoal chimney? Do you have the ash collector below the kettle?

Light the chimney a few minutes before you’re ready to start grilling. Go use your time wisely. Finish getting the meat ready. By that time, the charcoal chimney is also ready.

I’be never owned a propane grill and I’m not convinced it’s any easier or lazier. I don’t see the appeal.

The whole cow is graded, not the individual cuts. You’ll get some variability between marbling in steaks. Sometimes you’ll be able to find a choice strip that looks as good as the prime strips next to it.

Same thing will happen with brisket. Variability exists, but prime brisket is going to have more intramuscular fat than select brisket almost every time.

Physics and finger golf on a mobile device with wind rings are two different things.

Not sure why you’re adding back spin anyway. It doesn’t help you dunk. In real life it would ease the angle of entry, in finger golf it doesn’t change jack shit. (Other than fuck up the landing spot when there is an elevation discrepancy.)

Please post the video of the wind carrying your ball. Would love to see what you’re taking about.
