Time to cook some ribs and chicken wings
Getting it setup
Handy place to hang the grate
Setting coal grate to lower position and lighting it up - this Is really fast as the grate sits just above the igniter
Added the wood
Getting warmed up - it was fast to get it up to temp
Two racks of spares and two racks of loin backs
Hover grill works well to add cooking space
Chugging along
I had the charcoal banked on the side where the igniter was. I was interested if this caused a temp differential. I got to use my new green maverick to check both sides - temp within the kettle seems very consistent even with charcoal not spread out evenly. Also, the lid gauge was right on with the maverick
Looking good but not done yet!
Where to put the chicken wings? Let's see if another hover grill will fit. Perfect - almost 3lbs of chicken wings on the second tier.
