I snagged a mint condition DR code Smokey Joe Platinum from CL. I got it from a man who "sucks at grilling, especially with charcoal." So now I have two of these, and I don't think the Mrs. is gonna be very happy. It was too good of a deal to pass up, but now I'm stuck trying to figure out what to do with it. I could flip it to a friend who would gladly take it or I could keep it, maybe even try to make an 18" tamale pot styled not-so-mini-WSM.
I think they make great camp grills because they're compact, but still big enough to cook indirectly. I've done chicken parts, pork tenderloin, whole tri-tip and other medium sized cuts of meat with great results. Yes, the vents are a little different, but they work really well once you get the hang of it.
So any suggestions about what to do with it other than just sit on it and have two? Any creative ideas? Anybody interested in a trade? I'm always interested in colored kettles, just like everybody else here.
