So after last night's cook, I let both kettles burn all the way down to ash and cool naturally. This morning as I was leaving for work, I lifted the lid on one of them, to see a giant sheet of what looked like carbon paper fall off of the inside of the lid on my 3 wheeler...
Yep. Time to clean the grills...
Had another unexpected issue. I have hinged grates on both kettles, on the Jumbo Joe Premium, one of the sides the hinge slipped apart. I needed to open the loop slightly to get it to fit back together, and pinch the loop to secure it. I am going to pinch the loops on both hinged grates to keep this from happening again this upcoming weekend...

Yeah, I have noticed that on the newer ones. Seems they are not the same gauge/quality as the older ones. Yeah, just pinch 'em... be fine.
