Hot lime color change
« on: March 19, 2016, 11:56:38 AM »
Doing a super high heat indirect salmon today, but was too lazy to rearrange grills, setups, and charcoal remnants.

Fired up the lime with a chimney of white hot coshell. The hair on my knuckles singed and curled as I picked up the chimney.

Did the high heat have an effect on the camera?

Haha, very sure.
It was also raging hot. Hotter than I prefer to get in vintage colors :\
Far hotter than a chimney of kingsford is capable of getting without stoking.

And the other Lime I had never changed this dramatically (that or I never got it hot?)

What effects does high heat have on light colored kettles. Are they prone to crack or change color and not completely change back? Nice cooker man, and salmon. What glaze did you put on top of it?

high heat is known to cause porcelain chipping around weld points (leg sockets, grate straps, handles)
continued high heat has been known to cause the cracking and crazing (which leads to more chipping)
This happens on all kettles, but is much more noticeable on colorful kettles than black.


the salmon was rubbed with sweet seduction rub from Simply Marvelous. It's my go-to rub. I buy it 10lb at a time.
The glaze is blues hog, but cut with a splash of apple cider vinegar and simmered with some orange zest and ginger to make it less "barbecue-y"
it's still very much bbq sauce though :)

It's the iconic symbol for the backyard. It's family/friends, food and fun. What more do you need to feel everything [is] going to be all right. As long as we can still have a BBQ in our backyard, the world seems a bit of a better place. At least for that moment. -reillyranch

Cool. So if I never score a yellow, I'll just scorch the snot out of my 18.5 lime and drink a few beers. (wait, i drink the beers first).

Thanks for posting this, I had asked about color shift in that lime I found recently, and well now I can't wait to get it all fired up!
Though I probably not it that hot...

Salmon looks awesome too!
