I have the gas one and I have to say it is the best bbq I have ever cooked on, ZERO hot/cold spots unlike the weber Q I had.
@ebrente25 күн бұрын
Lump is the only way to go! And you CAN do snake method with it. Just takes some extra time to assemble the snake with the right sized chunks. That lump wasn’t lit all the way, likely due to chunk size. It always gets plenty hot, keeps me warm after the sun sets and the Canadian winters get real!

No use at all without a lid. The Weber Go-Anywhere has been around for years, does everything this does and is a whole lot cheaper. A far better option. The Cube is just a gimmick to line Heston’s pockets.

Hi from Montréal, Canada! To me, the lump charcoal in your video didn't hit high heat because you had super big chunks :) Crush 'em up a little, redo the test and it will beat the briquettes, and you'll have a more consistent heat too. Cheers! Up here, we use sugar maple wood lump charcoal ;)

The only advantage the pellet cooker has is the additional cooking space. Also the convection effect of the smokefire might have added to the additional drying out of those ribs. Probably could have benefited from a foil wrap

@elgenetiamzon10622 ай бұрын
You can actually light it with just a regular lighter or a match. The charcoal catches quickly, but doesn't produce a flame. The white stuff the charcoal sits on is crushed lava stone.

It's probably fortunate that it doesn't produce a flame, the whole thing might go up in flames haha :)

Hi, When using the lid on the GA with all vents open it seems like the heat slows down is this normal ?

If you buy an additional grill grate (from a weber kettle) then place the bottom charcoal grate on to the water pan flanges then add the charcoal chamber thingy on top then finally your replacement grill grate to put your coals on, the charcoal will be the perfect height to grill like a normal weber kettle.

Doing lamb rotisserie tonight, yours looks killer ! I will admit, I do prefer direct heat and shave it as you go so the lamb fat drips onto the coals creating smoke flavour. Indirect with a tray is good if you've got potatoes or roasting something for sure.

Both have their use and time to shine, and both are real charcoal. Briquettes are made from what is simply powdered lump charcoal (carbonized wood) pressure formed into a uniform size. Of more importance is quality of the product brand when it comes to making your selection.

Well, that was fun. Before I commit to an opinion, I would like to see a repeat of this test using different meats such as burger, steak, chicken. The sausages are held together by a casing which, in my opinion, is the best compilation of taste imparted by mild smoke of charcoal. This is why to smoke meat, small chips of hickory, mesquite, apple or cherry wood are used in smokers. Briquettes are made by intensely compressing sawdust and other wood products into small briquettes. So, they are compressed wood products of indeterminate origin, but may contain some chemicals too. There are briquettes that are infused with quick starting chemicals containing petroleum products. They may impart a petroleum smell and tasted. Lump charcoal is pure hardwood that is partially consumed by a low, indirect fire with very limited oxygen which causes the hard wood to burn, but not flame and to become charcoal rather than ash. The benefit of lump charcoal is it will burn much hotter than briquettes. Much hotter. But, not all lump charcoal is made with quality control consistency and inside the bag you may find vastly different sizes as well as many lumps that have not completed the process of becoming useable charcoal pieces. They will still burn of course, but flame up easily and burn as wood would. For lump charcoal, it is important to know and trust the source. For briquettes, don’t buy the ones with chemical additives. As far as cooking is concerned, I find it is easier to control the heat with briquettes because of their uniform size and consistent heat dispersion. When baking bread and biscuits in a cast iron Dutch oven, briquettes are much easier to deal with. But if I’m cooking a big batch of ribs for a tailgate crowd, then the lump charcoal is a better choice because of the high heat generated and excellent flavor imparted. Also, lump charcoal is a better choice for use in a Green Egg or Kamado Joe because of the high indirect heating needed to heat up the 360 degree ceramic plates that radiantly cook the food rather than direct flames. But, ultimately, use whatever you’ve got…it’ll get the job done. It’s not a high-tech endeavor.

Put handles on your lid vents. NOTE: a 5/16th threaded rod wil screw into a 7mm hole beautifully. 4 inces of Eucalyptus or nylon garden picket does the trick. 5/16ths and 7mm and a few nuts for the rod. Lock washes if you must.

It's cool how you showed the features, but I would liked to have seen you actually light some coals and seen how hot you can sear some steaks. Also, how do you control temp? Is it just hot or not? How do you put it out? Is that tray metal and double as a hood?
@smokeanddaggerbbq10 ай бұрын
G'day - thanks for the feedback, always looking to improve :) In terms of temp control, your best option is to manipulate the fuel source i.e. either put it all to one side, or use less total fuel - this gives you both direct and indirect options. The tops shown in the video are not metal, so best option for putting it out is waiting for the fuel source to cool down (as opposed to the Weber Go which can be choked from the air vents).
@TheNucMed18 күн бұрын
I agree completely. Still looking for actual hands on cooking video with this grill. Interesting how difficult that is. Either the price is just ridiculous for anyone to spend money on it to even try, or it cooks like a propane grill. Which means you will have a hard time grilling proper chicken breasts.....which then means a 1 to 1-1/4 inch steak (~25-32mm) is out of the question.
