Looking to add a Summit Kamado or Summit Charcoal if I can find one second hand.
I already have a well setup 22" Kettle and 18" WSM (and a Smokey Joe) and have a ton of accessories that I want to share with the Summit.
I haven't seen anyone using a Vortex with the Summit Charcoal... is it redundant? I know the Summit can get far hotter than my Kettle could, so using the Vortex might not be necessary. Or is it not advisable for some reason?
I have a SNS Deluxe, grid and dripping griddle that absolutely love. Also have the Easy Spin Grate. I know the 22" grate won't work in the 24" Kamado, and the SNS and griddle won't be a perfect fit, but they all will work. Although, I have heard of the SNS low-profile (can't find it on the SNS website) and it leads me to think the height of the Summit grill grates might be closer to the charcoal grates than on the kettle. Can anyone confirm?
I don't see too much in the way of Summit Charcoal specific accessories. Stainless grill grates maybe? I see CI but not SS. I live on the ocean and anything that isn't ceramic coated or stainless will succumb in short order.
I am trying to avoid surprises once I get the Summit... If you have both, or migrated from the kettle to the Kamado, I would love to hear your experience!
