Whats on the Grill or Smoker?

[LOMartin]

Submitted some projects this week and had some time tonight to quickly grill up dinner.

Churrasco and Chicken with squash and $hittyto peppers; the peppers have an actual name but I can never remember how to pronounce it. Not spicy at all. Edit: Googled it (Shishito Peppers)

Just rubbed the meat with some Everglades dry rub that’s made in Tampa, FL.

Grill is a Weber Performer.

Where do you run the cords for your probes? Did you drill a hole? Pics please I have the same grill and just order a Smoke 4x.

Had no supper plan for tonight and were going to be home later than we originally planned. Picked up some boneless skinless and decided these would be supper. A little honey mustard then rubbed with the John Henry Butter Pecan and voila...

They weren’t happy with the scorched skins I. My taters the other night so they got foil packets tonight.

Chicken was super moist and tasty but the skin wasn’t crispy like the wings I did. Was a little surprised the little bird took as long as it did but damn it was good...

If I do a whole chicken, I do it indirect at 400 for about an hour and fifteen

I will try that next time. Was around 300 for almost 2 1/2 on this one.

Looks like the Vortex served you well!

I wouldn't say it's necessary for the cooks I have been doing but it sure makes them easier.

I just close the lid on them. Not the best. But theirs lid is already very leaky.

I read about the RTV trick. You grease the bottom kettle and apply a bead of high temp rtv on the top kettle. It’s suppose to create a good seal. Need to read about some more and see how long it actually last or if I need to do another work around.


What are you using to cook the chicken? Is that one of those Vortex Indirect things?

First attempt at making a pizza in the grill a few weeks ago.

Mistakes: I didn’t allow the ceramic to preheat enough. The pizza we’re taking way too long to cook. Still came out good, but I burnt the bottoms.

First time using that Weber pizza stone also.

It is a knock off Vortex by Broilmann BBQ that I got on Amazon up here. If you are experienced with the snake method you probably don’t need it but it sure makes it easy to do direct or indirect. Coals in the middle and meat around the outside. Can do reverse sear steaks etc. Very happy with my purchase of it.

Can’t decide if the Wok or the cast iron sear plate is next.

Cast iron sear plate works pretty well...

Yeah I use the snake or Just stack the coil to one side with great success.

I like your use of the vortex for beer can chicken.

I use a big cast Iron skillet in place of buying the plate.

Making good pizza on the webber is tricky, fresh dough is key.

Did another batch of grilled habanero hot sauce.
