Vietnamese PHO BO beef soup in a kazan:
Peel two yellow onions and cut them in half. Cut a whole garlic bulb in half crosswise. Slice the ginger lengthwise. Prepare the Kamado BONO grill for direct cooking, light the charcoal starter, close the lid, and wait until the temperature reaches 200°C. Close the top and bottom air vents slightly to maintain a steady temperature. Place the kazan inside the grill over direct heat. On the bottom, place the onion halves, garlic halves, and ginger slices cut side down in a single layer. No oil is needed!
Add star anise, fennel seeds, and cloves. Toast for a few minutes until slightly charred.
Pour warm water into the kazan. Add the meat and top up with water until the meat is fully submerged. Wait for it to boil. Cover the kazan, close the grill lid, and leave the air vents half open. Simmer for 2.5 hours, checking occasionally, skimming off foam, and adding more water if needed.
While the broth is cooking, prepare the other ingredients. Slice the remaining garlic cloves and chili peppers into thin rounds, pour over rice vinegar, and let them marinate. Thinly slice the red onion, pour over rice vinegar, and let it marinate. Chop parsley and green onions. Slice the lime into wedges.
Add cardamom spices to the kazan, pour in fish sauce, and season with salt. Stir and taste to check seasoning. Close the kazan, cover the grill, and let it simmer for another 30 minutes.
Prepare the rice noodles as instructed on the package: Pour boiling water over them and leave for 10 minutes, then drain.
Remove the meat from the broth and cut into bite-sized pieces. Remove as many of the onions, star anise, and ginger from the broth as possible. Ideally, strain the broth, but if not, ladle it through a skimmer.
Assemble the soup: In a bowl, add rice noodles and meat. Pour over hot broth. Then, add toppings to your taste: Pickled garlic with chili, pickled red onions, bean sprouts, fresh parsley, green onions, mint, and a lime wedge.
Enjoy!
