Here's another test cook we did yesterday, but this time I kept the Sun and rain off the kettle.

lol wow those pics are huge.  Anyone know how I can scale them down in the forum?  I'm guessing I have to resize the image before uploading... but doesn't hurt to ask.

Not sure how to work it in Google Drive......any simple photo management program can re-size, then stick them into the folder in drive, I guess?

preview the post to see if it worked right.......

Yes but is there a way to make the forum resize the image to fit a certain width?

Sounds as steady as a UDS cook, surely Looks better too.

This represents a bare grill, only the water w/ it I'll assume.

You can resize the image width in the url code (copy image location) it auto retains aspect ratio
(change width only as height doesn't matter)

eg. change the 666

Thanks @Metal Mike.  Both of those graphs were dry run cooks.  No meat.  I used one Weber Chimney of charcoal and one quart of water.  I also had aluminum foil covering the charcoal grate on the indirect side.  It's not necessary but I test the way I cook, and I always cook with some kind of drip pan or foil boat on the charcoal grate under the meat to catch drippings.  There's no water added in either.

I am kinda excited to get this product.  Lawrence mentioned earlier that he is willing to spend money on a hobby. I am the same way, I like accessories to improve my cooking experience.  Another person said why spend $80 on an accessory that will go into a $50 kettle? OK well for me, I purchased a beautiful mid 70's Red kettle that is in amazing shape, it is priceless to me.  I would like to keep it nice while I cook on it.  I believe this product will help me do that.

I think $80 is steep but I also know that neither is labor esp in the good ole US of A.  We are so used to cheap crap from another land that we expect everything to be cheap.  I am willing to drop money on something that will last, with 16G steel I expect this to last.

I have the smokenator also and love it and have concerns about the coals banked on the walls of my '93 red 22.5" so the slow and sear will be taking the smokenators place. I'm a sucker for grill accessories!!!!!! ABCbarbecue if this product is anywhere near as good as the smokenator I know I'll love it  also seeing as how it protects the outer wall from the coals. Thank you.
