    ECB and the Minon method

    You'll have to post how the stove door gasket works out!  Sounds like a better solution than the folded sheets of foil I've used the last couple of times.  Good luck with the lump charcoal, I've used it several times now and have been pleased with the results.  I've seen some other posts saying...
