    Vision Grill at High Altitude

    Hi Andy, I'll have to keep your pizza stone alternative in mind when I do pizza on the Vision. I would love to visit the Reno area and I'll bet you are spot on with the altitude causing the difficulties with the grill.

     Ribs were nice and caramelized, flavor was too smoky. I didn't wrap soon enough.  Small brisket in the foreground.  Backyard setup. I used some pecan, oak and hickory. I'm still learning!
