    Votex wings question

    When i use the vortex, i crack the lid an inch open...temp gets up to 600--but still after 40 mins, would like the skin to be more crispier....they are good but not like kfc crispy. I use only dry rub and oil them before--flip 30 mins in....

    FINALLY GOOD VORTEX WINGS

    yep going forward will be leaving lid a inch gap--with vortex going ...you can hear and see the difference between closed lid and slightly open gap...more air rushing to the vortex. Only be doing this for wings--maybe burgers....high high heat...I am in Toronto, cold week ahead of me....

    FINALLY GOOD VORTEX WINGS

    Had the Weber kettle for over a year and vortex--always had mediocre wings--temp on dome always just hit 400f...Never figured it out--lump coal. Always used mapp torch to hit lump in vortex to heat up..vents all open...Decided after a year to buy Charcoal chimney starter--filled it up with lump...

    steaks indirect method--have questions

    Question...so do you put steaks on indirect --do you put probe in middle of steak, and wait till it hits 115--then sear to 125? have dual probes is this the best way to get readings?-- how long does it take to reach 115..if you have a roaring fire indirect piece of steak? guessing 5 mins? then...

    Baby Backs preference?

    Do other people prefer 3 hrs indirect at 270? Bare with no sauce just rub-- no spritzing? need to know if this is fine for life. I like it has a little pull off the bones--not dry? Any other people like this way? sauce them on the plate if needed.
