    From Redwood City, CA

    Hello SMFers, I’m going to be cooking for my daughter’s and niece’s HS graduation celebration. I got a new cooker just for the occasion, a Char-Griller Grand Champ XD offset. Until now, I’ve just used old char-broil grill, it’s old and breaking down and just too small, and a weber kettle. So...
