i wanted my 1st cook on the Green Ghost to be a little old fashion. what's more old fashion than.......

Green Ghost came w/ a electric starter.

I've have never used one before. always a chimney / newspaper kind of guy. my dad and my FIL used a electric start whenever they started their charcoal. watching it start up and smoke brought a little tear to my eyes. i felt attached to the old guys in my life.

going w/ this set up for my 1st cook.

tip of the day: the cool thing about this is that all the burgers are the same thickness. that's a little trick from me to you. how many times do you cook burgers of different sizes and they all get done at different times. not mine. they all finish at the same time.
