Hello:

Next week I'll be cooking 20lbs. of wings (cut up, flat and drum, no tips). I have a 22" kettle with the gourmet cooking grate. I'll be using a vortex. What's the max number of pieces that will fit on the cooking grate? I figure around 80 pieces, if I make a double row going around the perimeter of the grate.
 
That’s a lot of wings! I’m not sure how many I’ve squeezed on but, it might be two batches? Even double rows it’s going to be tight.
Let us know how many do make it, please?
 
Yeah, I also counted 39. Maybe that's it. I keep jumping between using my kettle, and using my pellet grill (GASP!). I've been wanting to use my kettle for a cook this size; but, the weather here on the space coast is unpredictable -- my pellet grill in in the lanai, so it's kinda sorta protected from the elements.
 
The dinner is Saturday, December 7th. Right now I'm doing the Tasmanian dance to honor the Sun God so that it won't rain that day.
