How about trying the Vortex using the indirect-direct method? I'm thinking that if it can crisp up chicken wings, then maybe it would crisp bacon wrapped tots as well. At any rate, since I have a vortex, I just might try doing that and see how it turns out. linda...

Don't worry about asking silly questions, Bob. I didn't even know they could talk! :p linda

I have gloves just like the ones Jeff F suggested. They are generously sized and the little heart bump thingies add thickness, which provides a bit more heat protection. Still, if you expose them to high heat for any extended time, they get hot! Also, being silicone, they get real slippery when...

Mary! You got a major deal on that vortex! Way to go! Like you, I try to wait for a sale, but all the raves about the vortex sparked my inner urge to buy BBQ toys. I can't help it, I'm hooked on Q! :o My ATC is my PartyQ and I was just to lazy to to write PartyQ. linda

Here's the way I see it: most, if not all of here on TVWBB are passionate about food and BBQ and that means we need gadgets, oops I mean "gotta have" equipment. Did I really I the Vortex? The Cajun Bandit door? The Maverick with the wireless receiver? The Thermapen? The ATC? NO, no, no, no,and...

Go for it Mary! For me, it's a great way to do chicken! Sorry to hear you've been under the weather and I'm glad you're feeling better! linda

I would for sure! Grab that kettle while you can, you won't be sorry! linda

Thank you Chucko! :) And yeah, Kevin and Robert, I am a more than a bit leery about that Match Light and will take your advice and get rid of it. I hadn't yet put thought much into it, but that's a good idea! I'm gonna put a load of KB through her before I do a cook. :o linda

WOW! That's simply gorgeous! Nice score!

Thank you Kevin! I'm going to try that! linda

I've been wanting a second 22.5" kettle for some time now, but I've never really put too much time into getting one. The Hubster suggested I look at garage sales, which is probably a good idea, but I don't do garage sales all that much as I tend to but trinkets my house has no room for. So I...

I did some RC the other day and it is soooo good! I added about a teaspoon or so of El Rey Farms green chile powder and it gave the RC a very nice little kick. Also, I didn't have white pepper so I just went with fresh ground black. This one is on my "must do often" list! linda

Maybe the price is kinda low because there's no propane tank!;)

Hi Scott! Please do let me know the outcome. I've suspected that my problem with the buttons is my degenerating thumb joints, but maybe it's not that. I agree it shouldn't be that hard, but I tend to just accept things the way they are only to find out later that all I had to do was ask.:o

Not sure this will help, but the buttons on my PartyQ are hard to push and don't respond immediately. I’ve learned to hold the button down and after a very short bit of lag time, the display jumps into action. Once I get the temp set, I just let it rip! No problems! I don’t know if this is how...

I also use a 14" saucer, but no water bowl in my 18.5. Works great!

Do it! We'll back you up!

I use a clay saucer wrapped with two or three layers of foil. I just peel the top layer off after a cook and I'm ready to go again. I don't use the water pan at all anymore as it just seems to get in the way if I want to add fuel or wood. And emptying the water from the pan is icky. There's no...

I have a Party Q on my 18.5 WSM and I did get the adapter. Installation was super easy! I am not familiar with the IQ10, but I can say my Party Q works great for me. I'm using rechargable batteries and I have no problems with battery life in summer. I used it this past weekend and I can tell you...

Beauty!! I like the color of your truck too! :D
