 Topic: ALLIS CHALMERS BBQ COOK OUT
Posted: 20 Apr 2015 at 12:26am |
Ok, Had to stop work on the HD21B early today. My wife told me if I didn't start cookin on the AC BBQ she was going to dig it up and scrap it. Well it's been in the ground for 5 years and other than hot dogs and warming it' been pretty slack. So, I built a fire in it. Betcha didn't know you could get this much heat in an HD11 radiator. So knowing we might have to big of GRILL holes I did a recon to find something for grilling on. Came up with some stainless steel pieces that I re fabricated to look like this.  Didn't use the warming oven today. This was a 1 tri tip event.  So Hooch and I monitored the process Rule of thumb that we live by here is "if it's smokin it's cookin if it's black it's done" Threw in some tatters too. And some more soppins  Dinner is served. Maybe chicken next week? These old ACs just keep on giving back more fun.

Neat!
I bet it works better than those John Deere grilles that we read about yesterday!
Silly Deere people, you can't cook on fiberglass!

Nice grill Mel, I sure enjoy reading your posts and looking at all the pictures. I might have to stop reading them thou as for some reason I now have a strange desire to buy 2 AC dozers, one to fix up and the other for a grill-I mean parts.

Ok, we added a chicken and corn recipe to the AC BBQ cook book  The corn started out on top, but we also experimented with the warming oven    These are all work in progress recipes, so if they don't work the first time we'll COOK IT AGAIN. till it's done right.
