Most important reason to get a BBQ Dragon: NO MAN SHOULD EVER BE CAUGHT USING A HAIRDRYER FOR BBQ ☠️

Just ordered one. When you say it’s good we know it’s good because you give the absolute most honest, no bs BBQ reviews! Thanks!

Thanks for this video I found it really useful, I really like the look of the Stone and the Chimney with the fan I will be ordering those very soon. Thanks again.

I am definitely going to be checking out the BBQ Dragon products!! Great reviews!

thanks for the video review on the items, as always i look forward to the next video.

incredible review...your videos just keep gettintg better and better my brother...keep it rocking

Great review Meath...I mean Meat Cranium ! Can’t wait to see your set up when I stop down ! Thanks for sharing my friend!

Awesome review brotha... I'm really digging that chimney and blower fan, gonna look into it👍👍

Great video! Definitely need to add some of these to my arsenal.

Love the shelf, chimney tower and fan , and the quick read thermometer. BBQ Dragon makes some neat products

Hey MC. Thanx for sharing Alternatives from the "Big Guys"

You got a lot of Toys! That hanging side table is pretty cool.

Great video I will definitely look into purchasing some of those products..

Great review brother very detailed and honest.. Thats what I like in reviews .. You did great job Meatcranium

My BBQ is currently covered in rust and Bird Shit...think I will getting a new one in the summer. Cheers for sharing brother, and I love ya😉

I have the BBQ Dragon fan...When I first started seeing it in stores, it was $50 up here in Canada! Then I saw it go on clearance for $10, and I picked one up. Even just using it on a normal Weber chimney, it really cuts down on the time to get the coals going. I love the idea of the stone, gonna have to look into getting that! Thanks for the video Meathead! Or, I guess, MeatCranium now! 👍✌

Gotta love new toys. You definitely don’t want to piss the wife off by taking her hair dryer...lol! I want that shelf for sure. Good stuff FLARIBROMIGO! Cheers!

Ut oh new toys for Christmas for me!!! My wife is not going like this at all lol. I got the bbq dragon fan already but haven’t use it yet it’s been in my garage since April of this year smh. I gotta get the everything except for the grill spinner. (It reminds me of the those car rims that spins lol) Awesome review brother! You have once again pointed me in the right direction for bbq products so thank you 🙏

Hey Chris. Love the Dragon side shelf and the insta-read digital thermometer. I don't really have a use for the charcoal starter since I'm not in a big hurry and also living in a very wooded area I wouldn't want to start any forest fires with all those hot sparks flying around, lol. Thanks for sharing and I intend to go ahead and lick up that side shelf and thermometer today. Cheers!

Good info! Thank you!

nice gadgets! I have a tool hook on the side of my kettle and I found it does cause leakage. I suspect the shelf will have some too. That being said, I just close the vents a bit more to compensate.I gotta get that shelf.

Cool tools, good honest review mate!👍🌟

Thank for the review! That Grill Stone, has got my attention.

FIRE !!!.... that's definitely what I'd be yelling that if I used that BBQ Dragon Cole starter around my house... pretty cool tho...

Great review on this dragon grill 👍

I have the blower and its awesome. I don't have the chimney because I have several of them that are working great. I even use it for the fireplace when starting a fire!

Just helped make my Christmas list, I agree the stone should cover the whole grill slight gaps around the edge.

Nice and helpful video

Nice! makes me want to get a Weber kettle again... 😀

Some good lookin toys, I like that dragon blower. I would like to see that stone in action for a pizza. Pass on the spin grate, I have no purpose for it. I cook direct or indirect heat, and have never had any issues with it. Good review and grats on the storefront.

That is maximum coverage and one hell of a fire!

Good video. Gave me some ideas.

Awesome Review! The grill stone is awesome, the potential for it is limitless, BBQ Dragon Side Shelf is also a great Product! I'm not so sure on the instant read not as fast as my Other instant read "Pop". I agree with the spin grate. Don't have the chimney of insanity. Awesome video!!!

Good review bro! The shelf is a must. Does it only come in black?

I love the bbq dragon grill stone, absolutely fantastic for chicken /turkey.

great review like the BBQ Dragon

I have the Dragon Wing shelf and love it. I love mods and Gadetry. More the better.

I like your reviews. I clicked on the link to your BBQ Dragon store and noticed a couple of items (gloves and grill table) are not connected. You might need to make some updates to get those set up correctly.

Wow fantastic stuff bud

Shelf added to my cart.

Very informative my friend.

That thing is awesome 🔥

Those are really cool!

Great Review 👍

Wish you would do more reviews

Great review. When I first started out using a kettle (earlier this year, new to this awesome world of BBQ), I was caught up in the slow n sear advertising. I like it, but as you mentioned I lose half of my cooking space. In your experience, how do you feel the temperature management compares between the two? I bought the stone recently and haven't been able to use it yet, but if one were to have skill in welding, they could in theory weld a water trough with handles of some sort to fit in the opening in the stone, thus allowing for complete use of the grilling space.

I wanted to order the grill stone, but it doesn’t have good reviews on Amazon. Now that it’s been awhile since you made this video, do you still recommend it? The complaints on Amazon say it breaks after only a couple of uses and the company is non-responsive when people try to reach them.

They are smart for listening to your constructive criticism. It will benefit them well! To bad ol dave couldn't do the same...

Great video. How did the powder coating hold up on the side shelf after lighting the coals on top of it? Thanks.

Hey bro, I actually have a bbq dragon. I got it for doing an sca comp where I didn’t have electricity to use my wife’s hair dryer to get my slow n sear blazing hot, and it did a good job, the safety grate fell out a few times but I just put it back in. The stone is neat and I’ve seen Tom horseman do a lot of mods to it to make it work with other accessories including the sns had some cool results. As far as the spin grate goes I agree that is a non starter if it’s only point is to move stuff away from the heat that’s why we have tongs or hands am I right. Have a good one bro.

It's METAL!!!! :-) When I first saw the Stone....I could see it's potential. I had to buy one! The Stone has been a game changer for me. It's not perfect....but I make it work for my applications. They asked me if I was interested in trying any of their other products.......I declined.

I love the spin grate

Hey bro great video, can you install two of those shelfs on both sides?

Toys :) Great review Chris! I would like the stone and the sidetable, but so far noone imports them to europe so too expensive :(

So I wouldn't use the shelf because my Performer has a built-in shelf, and I live my thermo pop, but that chimney! T-Roy has one and he uses it without the fan and it rocks! I think Ken at Heavy Metal BBQ has one of those stones and he made it rock for like 16 hours! Cool reviews Meathead! Rock On!

Nice video...👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👍🏼 Stay connected...

have you heard about the Aura kettle zone system? it'll be great if you could do a review

The blower and spin grate is my fave, guess I gotta wait for version 2 tho. With that stone, wouldn't you eliminate the char on your meat?

I think the price of the BBQ Dragon stuff went up today. After watching a few videos this mini looked at them on Amazon. I didn’t pull the trigger right away. I looked at it later and the grill stone is $70. I am almost sure it was $50 this moy.

Please provide a link to your Amazon store

Great video meathead. The 'side shelf', have you noticed any loss of smoke, heat due to its slight lip when attached? Thanks Bro' ps surely the 'side shelf' will damage over time with heat from chimney. Not sure.

Nice video

When you’re cooking on low and slow on your kettle does the barbecue dragon create a small leak because it’s actually lifting up the lid on one side or does it seal well enough? I know the Weber accessory hooks that hook on the side of the kettle create a leak there OK to have hanging there for a hot and fast cook but not low and slow. They just let too much air into the kettle so you have to control everything by closing your vents. Which creates less airflow out through the lid vent. I would like to see a couple chunks of wood and charcoal smoking with a lid that shot and see how much smoke shoots out on each side of the shelf before I purchase one. Even just to have the shelf around for hot and fast cooks would be great. I have the chimney and the fan killer products they’re a little small compared to the Weber chimney. Wishing it was the same size as the weber chimney. I need to fill the weber chimney and the chimney of insanity and see how many briquettes each will hold. Just to know the exact difference. I feel I’m lacking in heat a little bit when I use the chimney of insanity because of the capacity it short. Maybe it’s all in my head?? lol Great review though!!

Webers Ben around for ever. They havesome great accessories.

Damn! Please make one to replace the water pan on the Weber smoky mountain. You can still put water pan on top of the stone.

Wayyyyy to many sparks to be safe in my hood! On that chimney!!!!!

What's up bro! Tuned in. I love reviews on products! I just gotta ask lol. Why are these any more necessary than say for instance the Slow n Sear? Again I'm here to watch either way I just feel like we went from you dont need anything but salt meat and fire to, snag these accessories they are a must. I agree these are all awesome additions but it's just like the slow n sear... meaning it still comes to personal preference. Again either way I'm here and i enjoyed the video. Just wanted to know your thoughts on it? Cheers brotha I enjoy all the reviews you are doing keep it up.

It would be hard not to like that charcoal starter and chimney! That would be a big time saver for sure!

Check out Aura Outdoor Products. They are coming out with full grate coverage system similar to kamato Joe divide and conquer

You briefly went over the “BBQ Dragon Grill Table”. Have you found any smoke/heat leakage between the smoker lid rim & the table rim hanger?

One thing I like about bbq dragon products is price point. I have that stone and paid $50 which is great. I’d have a sns if it were in that price range. One complaint I had with the stone is it didn’t come with any instructions on how to use it. You can say it’s self explanatory but some directions would be nice. When I emailed them they just sent me some links to KZfaq videos 🙄

Have you ever seared a steak using the chimney of insanity? Is there such a thing as too much? Maybe a video idea/request :) Love your videos.

Have you tried the kettle zone cooking system by Aura, if yes what you think?

Bbq dragon please make a kettle extension ring and second grate system?

Great video Chris! I do have a suggestion, though......why not use the 18.5 inch WSM charcoal ring as the charcoal holder instead of the 2 charcoal baskets? First, it holds more charcoal than both of the charcoal baskets you had in this video....I recently ordered the 18.5 charcoal ring from grillparts.com they selling it at $32 & change..... the diameter is 14.5 inch and the height is 4.75 inch just a perfect accessory for the 22.5 kettle. You can put the stone on top of it, with room to spare.......( oh boy....Dave from ABC will surely hate me for this..... this will surely will be the end of the overpriced SNS)

Is the BBQ dragon just as effective with a regular Weber chimney?

Do you still light your coals on the BBQ dragon? I’ve never seen someone light their coals on their side table. (Bricks, yes.) That said, have you had any issues? Paint coming off? Etc

I could just see all the pine straw in my backyard going up in flames. Searing steaks on that thing would be awesome.

I want a grill stone I'm In Ireland, says doors not deliver to Ireland I have the side table its great, sooo handy, they need one for the smokey joe #bbqdragon

no hairdryers here!!... and a 45% opening would be cool....hold the spin!..... insanity should be called dragon breath!! Did that chimney mess up the paint or powder coated shelf?

The charcoal access door size is standard . Another door is unnecessary because the grate spins. The extra door would take away cooking area. A little bigger, maybe. I use a charcoal chimney . A full load lights in 10 min. without a blower. What's the hurry? Side table is nice. 50.00 heat deflector/stone. A lot of your links don't work.

I'm not completely on board with the bbq dragon. I can accomplish the same effect using an electric leaf blower. #Hairdryersare4sissies More wind and no batteries! #TryAtYourOwnRisk.

I realize this review is from 2018 but I wanted to leave a comment about the chimney of insanity and the fan/blower that goes with it. I LOVE my chimney it works great BUT the fan/blower has a serious flaw. The speed control will fail and you won't be able to even turn the fan on. I'm on my second fan/blower and the switch is starting to fail on it also. When you turn the fan on it won't come on at first eventually it will come on but turns very slow. As you turn the dial to increase the speed the fan speeds up then down,up then down and will not run at a set speed. I'm not an electrical engineer but I think there is a short in the switch that is causing the fan to speed up and down. I'm not going to contact BBQ Dragon about this issue I'm pretty much done with this particular product. They did replace my original fan/blower with a new one but like I said the second fan/blower is starting to do the same thing! So as far as I'm concerned the BBQ Dragon fan/blower is a FAIL!

Hmmmmmm.......I wonder if you can sear a steak using the chimney of insanity? 🤔

I have fir trees all around. To many sparks flying about.

WoW never ever ever used any mods on my Weber Kettle or chimney. Never even use a thermometer. If you can’t wait 10 minutes for your chimney to ignite your charcoal with paper from the bottom up. You might be in too much of a hurry. Been cooking for over 45 years in and out of the house. You young guys make me laugh with all your toys. My large Weber Smokers work just fine without any modifications as well. My advice to you is relax and enjoy your life. Cheers 🍻 EH!👽👍🔥

Why can't these manufacturers make products for the Weber 26 inch kettle?

Will the shelf fit 26" Kettle?

The AURA OUTDOOR PRODUCT KETTLE ZONE COOKING SYSTEM , has a better system than the dragon, and has a full 22 “ cooking stone for smoking this way

Maybe a heat gun 🤔

11:06 "Potentialality" is a shortcut to saying potential.

Chris Nice review. I appreciate you giving your honest opinion on readily-available products/gadgets for the outdoor cooking enthusiast. What maybe should be said ONCE, after the SNS series, is that your opinions are just that - opinions, and that many of the items you review may be provided to you free for that purpose. You are providing honest reviews to the viewers for their entertainment and informational puposes ONLY. There is no demand that viewers buy any positively-reviewed product; nor is there any implied penalty for not buying it (or for buying negatively-reviewed products). THERE ARE WORK-AROUND SOLUTIONS FOR ALMOST ANY PROBLEMS YOU FACE WITH BBQ, or anything else humans have power over. The most important tool for solving any problem is that wrinkly, fatty organ between your ears. By the way, I finished butchering that deer I showed you; would you believe that the neck roast weighed 19 lbs. 6 oz?

"Trying to get your meat off..." lol

These are the kind of accessories that tickles mah balls. Not some overrated piece of charcoal bucket 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Potentiality

Why in the hell world you use the side table to light your coals..it just doesn't make any sense at all.
