Hickory square smoker cover. Ijust received it pulled. It out of the box it rights over the smoker. Ican't be happier its high quality compared to. Some other smoker covers. Iwas looking at the color is nice it's actually quite aesthetically pleasing what I really particularly liked scooch around here is. This closure on the back it's nice and snug. And for future use also has. These fantastic clips so. Some high winds it snows. This cover will protect my so occur quite well so thank. You to Classic Accessories for making a wonderful product.

Everyone welcome back. Ijust wanted to show. This austin excel control cover. Ipurchased from Walmart. Ijust wanted to do a quick review. And kind of my thoughts. And then see this fits on the grill I've had the grill my grill for about four months haven't put the cover on. It so often that it's starting to rain it's getting cold want to go ahead. And cover it up let's go. And open whatever feels nice goes thick doesn't feel like. Some cheaper grill covers. You can see out there for 20 bucks by the way. This was Walmart, so I'm hoping this will last my grill actually sticks underneath a cover so shouldn't be as. It as exposed to the elements but. Ido want to cover up for dust. Another stuff like it has a pull string to kind of tighten up the bottom. That feels nice I'm not sure. This will be done't think they'll be waterful. You look at the insiders a PVC protection so maybe. It is oh go ahead this on the grill.

It fits I wanted to show. This grill cover fits. It has the logo on there a nice decent material. One thing I didn't really care for is. This drawstring doesn't really hold very well. Iwish there was some way to clip the grill down to the cover mostly. If it's windy it might blow off couldn't really tighten. It too much you can see. It goes over there the grill stack there. It cleared that side pan with the hooks on. It also has my front shelf. Iput on this grill. It cleared no problem so. You guys want to know. How to add a shelf to your grill go ahead. And click the link above so right over the hopper hopefully keep. All the pellets from swelling up in the range goes. All the way down to the bottom which is good so sit detect pretty well looks like it's pretty well-made tails pretty thick like.

I had like a plastic lining inside, so I'm hoping. That keeps it somewhat waterproofs its pretty easy to put on. And we'll see how over time. It fades or not but. It should protect the grille. And like this grille quite often, so I'll be taking this cover on. And off quite a bit hope. You enjoyed this video please subscribe I'll be posting some other videos on modifications.

So we're gonna try out. This Web charcoal starter. This is actually a mini. One is still quite big to take with. You camp gear but so the full-size ones are really big. What you do is you roll a couple of sheets of paper. You put them under the bottom. And inside you fit up a charcoal in through the slots like the paper. You should draw the area. And reset fires at the charcoal. They meant to speed up the time. It takes to get chuckles hot let's see. It gets on so there. We are we've got the paper in the bottom out the right way. Now we'll fill it with charcoal We kind of got it going I think. Imight've stopped a bit too much paper in the bottom took a. While to get going — bit of a breeze here so. We put up a wind break it's. Now smoking away eating those curls up still cooking away quite hot inside. We have to wait — they're mainly gray. All over so our charcoal starter looks pretty like it's ready to go it's taking me longer. Iexpected taking about 45 minutes. Isupposed to get to. This stage but I haven't had to use. Any light as at that is very hot coming out there so big handle here is nice and saw.

We just hit those into the fire. And we've got some ready hot bricks obviously watch. This is very hot make sure the kids are away from. And there one instant barbecue fire you.

HiI'm chef tony matassa todayI'll show. How to get your Kimono started using a chimney starter fill your chimney starter halfway with natural lump charcoal. And place a couple of sheets of crumpled newspaper under. It lights the paper and allow. It to burn for four to five minutes until the coals are glowing red. Now just pour these over the unlit coals in your kimono. You have a perfect start for low.

Hey welcome to the backwoods gourmet today we're gonna be comparing three different kinds of charcoal. And three stays tuned so. If you're gonna do kind of cooking we do here today. And trying to teach. You guys you know outdoor cooking you're definitely gonna have to learn a little bit about charcoals which ones to use win. And pay what's the best kind for you as well. You got to start that that charcoal. And the best play the best way to start charcoal in the world is a charcoal chimney. And there's a lot of them out there today we're going to show. You three different kinds of charcoal. And three different kinds of chimneys. You decide which one is best for you so here's the three types of charcoal. That we're going to compare with. Each other today first. One right behind one we've been using for a long time. This in competition barbecue stubs all-natural the center.

One here is Kings ford long burning we've been using. That a little bit lately. Because it's widely available the third. One I've never used over here. This was just went over to. Us from Camp made this is the camp made 100% all-natural coconut charcoal briquettes. Though I'm looking forward to giving. One a try today so back behind. Me are three different chimney starters. And I'll show each of them. This one's our good old Weber. One okay that that thing's been used that's over a year. And a half old is still working just fine okay. Whatever it's about 1415 dollars. Most your home improvement stores. And online one here. We picked up today one is a grilling Pro says made in the USA on. It okays I've tried these over the years we'll check out. One works just got a little metal pan on the bottom of. You probably say well where's the third.

One well here this is the new camp made collapsible travel charcoal chimney starter so let's open. And I'll show how to set. It up so this thing breaks down into a nice little carry bag here pop. It out of there and check. It out okays if you're familiar with the fire box little camp stove. This is kind of reminiscent of. That just pops open like. You have a flip-down charcoal grate in the bottom there. That holds it open also on. This handle on the side. That kind of automatically popped in there. It has a little detent spring right there. You can actually press fold the handle back. It comes out and snaps in place that's gonna be great for day tripping but let's see. It likes charcoal so. All three chimney starter sitting here on the table. What we did we put the same amount of brown paper in the bottom of. One teaspoon of peanut oil. You can use canola oil olive oil.

You cut bacon grease. Whatever other kind of natural Oh. You have just drop that on their kind of let. It soaks into that paper. Now we're gonna put the exact amount of coals into. What I've done is I put the exact amount of coals in. Each chimney starter which is 20 coals the exact amount. You need for a 10-inch Dutch oven running at 350 degrees. And the big Weber we have the Kings ford long burning back here in the cheapo. We got the stubs and of course we're going to use the camp made collapsible travel chimney starter with the camp made charcoal. All light them all up at the same time so right. This is not a contest to see which.

One likes the fastest. You know a lot of the charcoal companies like especially Kings ford a always like. You know but like so fast blah blah blah it's ready. And they're right you know them. And Royal Oak they always had a battle who was who's charcoal was ready the fastest. If you're going to just jump on from work grill steak cook. Some hamburgers hot dogs that's great but for long cooks. You need something that's going to last the time. You need to make that cook. And that's more important to the kind of cooking I do then just coming home serious date. You folks are having a hard time getting your chimneys to run long enough to get your coals going that's why you put.

That little bit of oil in the bottom it's gonna burn. It kind of like a candle in there. And give you a little. More heat to get things going it's only been a couple minutes. And it's like we've already started get charcoal smoke from. All three okay one here Kings ford long burning. That got ready the fastest next was the stubs. And just now getting ready it's gonna be the camp made coconut charcoal so that's taking a little longest. Now let's see which. One burns the longest. Most spread those out in. One layer just like. You would do it was on a Dutch oven try to leave. Some space in between them just like. You were doing a Dutch oven. Now we're gonna have to give a little bit of extra time to the long version. It started the fastest. One in the middle is a Stubbs would be back see Holly do so. How the chimney starters perform well starting out with our good old Weber right here I've been using this thing for a year.

And a half still working. That bottom grade starting to get a little that's the only thing I found with. It kind of goes is that great. That holds the charcoal in the bottom get kind of warped in a period of time. And the coals will start falling through that's. When it's time to replace. And a half okay this little cheapo guy okay by the way. This is only like four. Or five dollars cheaper. Than a Weber I've owned a bunch of these in my lifetime. Iguarantee that thing will be gone in six months. You know we'll keep using this. Iget back to this particular. That the coating on these burns off real quick it's just galvanized. And it's gonna start rusting. That thing is jumped don't waste your money on.

One little cat made. One collapsible you know. It seems to be made from the same material as the Weber. That same kind of coating on. You know it got a little discolored from the heat of the charcoal. What they all do the handle is a bit hotter to pick up then the then the Weber. You see that's a lot closer the handles are a lot closer to. You charcoal but the collapsibility of. One is definitely going to have its place here at the back woods warm a studio. One of those don't buy. This job's about 45 minutes I'm going up here shake the ash on them just see. How many coals are left. This is the Kings ford long burning yeah. You can see those are down to probably third of their size.

This is the stubs all right they're getting pretty small as well. This is the charcoal. This was the last one to actually light, so I'm gonna have to see. How they're I shake them they're kind of breaking up a little bit. They still got a pretty good coal going on them, so we'll check back on about. Another 15 20 minutes. This is definitely not scientific. When we'll see how much heat. One of these still has just by like holding my hand that's pretty hot way hotter super hottest so it's our little camp a charcoal chimney had a little chance to cool off their first time. It definitely go to be preferring this. One over taking a big Weber on day trips just for the fact. That I'm done with she pulls right up press a little button on the side fold a handle down comes to. This own little carry bag slide. It rights in there I've been having to lug my big Weber. When stuff down in the charcoal bag that's a heck of a lot easier to pack. It seems to work really well so it's been about an hour.

And 15 minutes this is the Kings ford long burning there still are a. Few coals there it's gotten pretty cold. If your Dutch oven cooking with. That's gonna be maybe on a warm. What surprises this period of time is Kings ford long burning and the stubs just about the same amount of coal size but. Ihold my hand here. Ihold my hand here noticeable difference in the amount of heat that's putting out okay so. Though it's smaller it's still hotter. Now over here is that coconut charcoal. And is by far the hottest but. What I did notice using. That today is you're gonna use. This with your Dutch oven cooking don't try to move.

These coals around too much. They break apart very easily basically. It takes is a little tap. They just most of them just fall right apart into crumbles which is probably why that's a lot hotter don't know. It works really good. They say on the bag. That the ashes of this are 100% organic. You can put those in your compost pile. Iwouldn't recommend doing. That with either of these to. Some of these this is stubs all-natural it's supposed to be all-natural but. Ican guarantee most kings for it has. Some coal dust in even have long burning or not so. What is the best kind of charcoal to use I'm gonna answer. That was saying depends on what you're doing with. Ihave a dish is only going to take 15-20 minutes like a lot of our. You know easy Dutch oven recipes to cook. Iwant to get that done in a shortest amount of time probably going to go with. Some Kings ford or Kings ford long burning if I'm grilling something on the weber grill.

Or the weber smokey mountain. That great all-natural flavor definitely gonna go with the Stubbs all-natural. Now with this new charcoal. We just found with a cam made coconut charcoal. Igot something's gonna take a really long time in the Dutch oven like a braised gumbo a lot of other things. That may take an hour. And a half in that Dutch oven probably gonna reach for some of. That camp made coconut charcoal just. It puts out so much heat. And lasts so long so which chimney starter would. Ibuy for everyday around here the Weber at $1499 is a great choice but like. Isaid it's kind of the buttock to haul around to go on day trip. If you're doing a lot of camping backpacking hiking and taking along your outdoor cooking gear with. We do a lot of day trips here definitely bring along with camp made collapsible chimney starter just a lot easier to pack. Even at 3995 I think that's a great deal so guys don't forget about our amazon store I'm gonna leave.

This is the Makah me silicone brush set. I really like it's attractive. It has the round and the straight it's a gray with an acrylic center. One of the reasons I have a very eclectic kitchen. And well just for example. I have an old citrus juicer a very colorful little espresso demitasse. And my pitcher more elegant. This is like basically my whole kitchen. I just have a mishmash of stuff. Ihave a mix of industrial. And warm and cozy something like. This with neutral grace. And the clear center really complement pretty much. Any kitchen you have so. I really like and my ice makers making ice so sorry about the noise uh. These have a nice grip a nice large grip. I hold mine like a pencil. I put the sauce in the marinade on but. You can see I have a nice and. You hold I also have a nice grip um. These have knobs on the bottom. You can see they're just little bitty knobs. I loved the idea of silicone brushes. They first came out. Iused regular pastry brushes. Iwas always leaving bristles. And would like hair. I was having to dig. It out of you know. Whatever I was brushing on. And um but I would have to pray up. And try to squeeze something real fast. They were slick they didn't really have. Anything to grasp the marinade. You know I was putting rum over. Something and with the little knobs. What happens there's the little ball tips on the end they're not very big they're not very intrusive but. You have something. It kind of grips your sauce so. You can dip it in bring it up out. It will actually sort of. You know hang on these little end pieces which is so nice compared to smooth.

It just kind of falls off so. These are nice they're really attractive um. They would go in a modern kitchen. They would go in a throwback kitchen. They would go in a retro kitchen they're just extremely easy to use.

I'm Kim with liquor say. This is our new silicone basting brush the silicone basting brush was designed after the artist filbert's brush the filbert's brush is an artist favorite. Because it's a really good blending brush but as well. It makes a thick line. When used this way. And a thin line when used on its side the crown bristles make for good blending so. We modeled that in our silicone basting brush the other feature. We added was shorter bristles. That offer more control over the silicone. And in addition we made the bristles cone shape so. That they're fat at the top. And narrow at the tip so. That the sauce will trap itself at the top. And slowly distribute to the tip of the brush simply dip. It into your basting sauce. It on grilled meats. Or roasted meats in the oven it's perfect in.
