Did a couple of little cooks in the last few days and will share them with you.

Breaded my hot wings and made up my sauce.

Fired up the Jumbo Joe and added the Mini-Vortex and a piece of hickory for smoke and then loaded the wings.

Sauced them a few times and took the wings off of the cooker. That little kettle sure does a nice job with wings.

Along with some chips and a couple of deviled eggs and one of those Zombie Dust Ales, it sure made a nice snack.

Saw a recipe on the web for spaghetti pie from the Food Channel and it looked pretty good so I decided to try it. The dish consisted of ground beef, onions, pound of pasta, marinara sauce, eggs, ricotta, mozzarella, Parmesan, and some Italian spices.
Anyway, put it all together and poured it into a cake pan that would fit the Cobb Grill and baked it about 45 minutes at a temperature of about 285-300 degrees. Recipe called for 30 minutes at 350 but the Cobb didn’t get up to that temperature with the big load. I think the pan was about 1” in diameter too large for good air flow on the cooker.

Got that big blob out of the pan and it looked great.

Added some sauce over the spaghetti and the wife made up some garlic buns and this turned out to be a very good meal.
Will probably do this one again....

Good looking pie and wings!
So how does your cob grill work? It looks like your cheese got a great browning on it.

Nice to see you again, @Old Dave !
For years, my dad's been making "string pie" --- same thing, different name. However, he makes it as a casserole.
And as it just so happens, if you have a 22.5" kettle ... the ubiquitous 9x13" cake pan size fits perfectly in the middle and leaves access to the side flip grates if that's what you have. I've yet to make something in a 9x13 that doesn't cook evenly*. It won't look as entertaining as a pie but try it as a cake casserole instead, on a 22.
* Indirect, using charcoal baskets under the side flip grates 180 degrees apart and pan in between!

Travis,
The Cobb is a nice little grill and works great for some cooks. I kinda rotate it with the Jumbo Joe for most back yard cooking when I do charcoal cooking or smoking.
