Chicago Epicurean: Orion Cooker
Posted by Daniel under Chicago Epicurean

I just have to get this out there. Buy this item! Mollie’s dad has one of these Orion Cookers and it makes the most amazing ribs, prime rib, etc.
It’s a coal-heated convection cooker, but food that’s made on it will taste better than if it were made on your pimped-out $1,500 Weber Summit Platinum D6 gas grill. And it requires no supervision - you just dump charcoal around the outside, put your meat in the cooker, close the lid and that’s it.
But the best part: it only costs $150. Check it out!
(Note: I posted this in my Chicago Epicurean section because well, this is Chicago. And Chicagoans love their ribs, chicken, burgers - pretty much anything that’s meat. It’s not high-brow, but who cares?)

Aww! He’ll love this. The prime rib was pretty good, huh? I do love Weber Grills though…

Have you had time to use your Orion further? I’m wondering how it’s working out so far. Your review is on the first page of google when you do a search for - orion cooker recipe.
