Title: ** Chop Top Kettle Lid **
Post by: swamprb on July 17, 2016, 11:02:08 AM
I took a nod from @varekai and made a cutout on my double insulated lid.

Cut the opening just above the rim of the lid, it is very stable.

Cut the inner lid a bit oversized from the opening to scrounge a cover.

Added 3 ground magnets and a Performer charcoal bin lid handle.

Playing around with a charcoal crescent - we'll see how it goes?

Haven't seen the double insulated lid mod before, then you re-mod it into a pizza lid???  AMAZEBALLS!

 This looks great!  Can you tell us how it performs, do you get higher temps for pizza?  Or use less charcoal for low and slow?
