18.5 master touch - first cook

[Bbqmiller]

Well, you can't mod a used kettle and not use it. My son asked for burgers on Father's Day, so I figured the 18.5 should fit the bill. New craycort grates.


My son figuring out how to use the grate lifter


He helped me light the fuel


Checking to make sure the ash can is properly secured


All set up


Taters roasting


Time to roast some peppers


Peppers moved indirect and grilled onions - love those sear marks


Burgers


Burgers indirect - added cheese and when melted pulled them off.


The food was great and the day with my family couldn't be beat- had a great Father's Day. Will definitely be using this little guy a lot in the future.

18.5 MT!? Glad to know such a thing exists, I must have
added craycorts & that is an envy-able setup
That is a heck of a nice break-in cook too!
