OK -- I'm a noob so please forgive a basic question.
After a cook, I close the vents and the fire dies. So... when I come out to cook the next time, there is a bed of partially-burned coals on the grate.
Should I load those into the chimney, top it off with new coals, and use that mix?
Or should I throw the old stuff out and start with all new?
Just wondering what the pros and cons are...
Thanks in advance. I learn a lot from every cook and everytime I visit this board.
