    Tomohawk on the BBQ? Fuck yes

    just got a lamb shoulder and a couple of pork shoulders today. Smoking in the near future ... can't wait

    Love lamb shoulder. It's so lush and takes a lot of smoke really well

    Like @canefan, absolutely love lamb shoulder, rate it much higher than a leg of lamb.

    Are you planning on slicing or pulling it?

    What rub do you use for the lamb?

    Probably slice it,

    usually just use the rub from Meathead's book - or just ad hoc something. Lamb has a lovely flavour, doesn't need much additions.

    is there a joint of meat that rewards slow cooking as much as shoulder - lamb or pork just reward that slow rendering so well and as was said take up the smoke wonderfully well.

    I'd take them over brisket any day.

    fair. It's something I struggle with on the Bubba Keg - I'll smoke for 7-8 hours at 225F, but still have a fair bit of structure to the meat - it doesn't easily get to a pullable state.

    May have to really give it more time when smoking next -- I often get pushed for time as I'm an optimist. Briskets go overnight, so I don't worry nearly as much

    Increase your cooking temperature to 275F. The meat can handle it. And wrap or boat it too at about the 4 hour mark if you want it to be soft as at 7 or 8 hours

    Do you spray yours to take more smoke? I may try that too - my smoke threshold is lifting, and kamado don't let you over-smoke things easily

    When I remember to spritz but sometimes not. If you want more smoke I would definitely use wood chunks. Some nice Pohutukawa or fruit wood

    Do you use a water bath in your Kamado?

    When I had my Kamado Joe, I always used a water bath, usually just a small AL foil tray, in with it and that helped the meat take on the smoke by keeping the surrounding air more humid.

    I also use the same when smoking now on the Webber Family Q.

    Nope. When I bought my akorn I was told they keep their humidity well. I don't even use a drip tray. I might do it on the Q

    Right, I've promised to make some NZ-style Easter Eggs for the close whanau here in the UK - the marshmallow-covered-with-chocolate ones. Problem I'm having is getting the marshmallow fluffy enough - tried different recipes, beating speeds and times but it's either too dense or sticky.

    Anyone got any ideas? I'm a bit lost.

    been going hard into Neapolitan style margarita pizzas after being inspired by a mate of mine.

    Still got to sort out better flour and mozzarella - but they are imminent. Few pics below - cooking in a classic Uuni (now Ooni). 90 second pizzas.

    Yep, those ones. They are the cheapest and easiest way into neapolitan pizza - otherwise it can be a damn rabbit hole.
    They do not use much wood; wood pellets, and honeslty don't use much. The pizza sizes are limited; the heat source is one side only and there is some skill in getting even cooking (and fire management).

    The pizza were amazing. Slow fermented dough, hand stretched- you get a chewy crust, with tasty toppings. Damn good.
