I use that vac container all the time . Does a great job short notice . If you do the Italian dressing , watch out not to get one that's to sweet . Unless you like that . Olive oil and...
I'm a direct heat for this , but build my fire accordingly . Always leave a cool zone in case it's needed . Then it's flip and baste the whole cook for me .
