Picked up a 10-pack of thighs and stopped at Home Depot to see about getting a vortex. Not a chance, I guess it's something that only comes online. Asked myself why in the hell would I need one of those, been doing OK without one on the kettle for 40 years now. Fired up a chimney of RO and dumped it out on one side of the kettle, loaded the thighs on the other side, tossed a yam and a hunk of hickory on the coals and put on the cover. Started my drinkin' and waited for the smoke to clear, maybe 45 minutes, then took a peek.
Gave the thighs a little brushing of SBR a couple of times over the next half hour and called it good
I'm still trying to remember why I wanted a vortex in the first place. The thighs came out juicy and nicely done, buttered up that yam and finished up some slaw, was a decent dinner. I'm not buying a vortex until I can figure out why I thought I needed one. Thanks for lookin'! RAY
