Can you make kettle corn in it? How about roasting nuts?

i do not know about the nuts, but we have often successfully made delicious kettle corn in it...I use coconut oil and organic sugar and organic popcorn. I cannot recall the exact recipe but there are several online...just experiment!

Absolutely !!! I do it all the time. One of my favorites is left over Bar-b-Q ribs. As a matter of fact I now cook additional ribs to make sure I have some on hand for a quick meal. I use the 4.5 mil bags . The can be used over if you want to be real "thrifty". Try this trick &gt;&gt;&gt; 3 ears of shucked corn on the cob, butter and salt & pepper. Seal and freeze. When you want corn on the cob, throw the bag in boiling water and boil for the same time you would normally. The corn has much more flavor because you are not filling your house with corn aroma steam.

Yes , you can. But make sure that the corn (or any other grain) you put for grinding should be very dry. You have to adjust the knob on mill for desired coarseness. I once made very coarse flour out of wheat berries for making sweet pudding.

You can, but you will use a lot of Abatron. You could mix wood chips in with it, but again very pricy.

Yes, you can throw some wood chips in the charcoal and keep put the lid on. This would would work best with indirect cooking and given the size of this Smokey Joe it may just not be big enough.

Yes it can cook corn dogs and you can Re-use the oil a few times before you drain the oil. I usually use a funnel and a strainer to drain the oil when it cools.

I just made kettle corn with my Great Northern popper last week using the following recipe and it turned out fantastic; without the burning that many people complain about. 2 Tablespoons regular olive oil or vegetable oil, 1 Tablespoon unsalted butter, 1/2 cup corn kernels, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, 1/3 cup sugar. Heat the oil, butter, salt and sugar over medium heat till hot then add the corn. When the kernels start to pop start turning the handle and continue until the popping stops. Pour into a large bowl and break up any large clumps. Be careful because the corn will remain very hot because of the sugar. Enjoy!

I personally have not chopped nuts, but anything that you put in at least a cup of anything will chop. The more you turn it the smaller it gets.

I am sure you can use the machine with any kind of beans or nuts, I didn't try with almond yet but I did with black eye pea & soybean, it came out perfect.

I browned my roast in it, then slow cooked it on the stove top. So I would think that you could.

Yes! And it's really nice the flour that comes out, pretty similar to the Bob's red mill one. You can prepare a beautiful corn bread!

I'm very sure you can do that as long as you soak them into water over night for them to soften enough...But don't forget to measured the right amount everything that you put in, over load nuts or beans machine will not crust them. Happy cooking ! This is a great machine.

The small kettle in the center that cooks the popcorn, you can put literally anything you want in there. It's the same as putting popcorn in the pot and cooking it on your stove and making homemade popcorn. So yes, you can do anything.

When I was young my dad would make parched corn for us. Which was dried sweet corn cooked in a skillet with a little oil and then salted. The corn puffs up kind of like corn nuts.

It's designed to be melted by the oil, but I have used it on air popped corn (my experiment) on an attempt for a lower calorie version. I spray the popcorn with butter flavored cooking spray (helps the topping stick. I also do this with the cheese flavor) and then apply the glaze as I would for salt. The end product is OK at best, but is nowhere near the kettle version. I have most of the glaze flavors and have made small batches on the stove top great results, when I didn't want to use my machine. Some batches have been superior to the machine.

Yes you can, just like on a gas stove. I've been using corning amber cooking ware for over 30-years. I won't use any other kind of cooking utinsil.
