It is a rare occasion that we have ground beef(ground turkey usually) for burgers in the Boldt household let alone ground chuck. Well the wife is off with her sister for the night so me and the kids get to eat some fat.
Now to the RRR Smokey Joe.
After my vacation where I realized that it is very hard to get a good grill on a grill with a smokey joe gold bottom I was in the hunt for a cheap Joe silver.
Well I found it the other day, she was a little abused, lid was bent, vent was seized, had bent legs and seems like the ash of every cook done on it on the bottom. Let alone it was dirty.
Got 'er for $10 and here she is.
Cleaned up nicely

put my own lower vent handle on, not the O and C on the legs for Open and Close :D

Nice clean up! Good looking burgers too. Did this style vent help get higher temps?
"my kettle is more powerful it will do almost anything."
Yes, I was able to get I higher temp with this style.
I should to a test run of both.
Looking good Jeff looking good. No shabby burgers there. Those look like a belly full.
Yer givin' Myron a run for his money with a cookup like that !!!!

I can never get direct grilled stuff like that to come out just right....Good show !!!!!
OC ... where is the D? ... Just kidding! ;D ;)
I have the same mod on the bottom vent of my SJ silver.
Works great for burgers or a couple steaks. Nicely done. :D
Boltz, nice restore.
When the cats away....! Nice restore and good looking burgers!
It's amazing how much the smokey joe actually fits. I have cooked full meals on one for a whole weekend breakfast lunch and dinner. No home is complete without one. Those are great looking burgers by the way. I bet the kids loved them. :)
