Chris Schlesinger's mind-blowing, five-course junkyard tailgate

"Chris was one of the world's great authorities on live-fire grilling. Naturally, I expected to find an open-air man cave tricked out with the best and most expensive equipment.
Instead, there was only a broken old Weber kettle grill with one wooden handle instead of two and no legs. The second handle and all three legs had broken off years before from “too many times in the back of a truck,” Schlesinger said that day. The weathered old grill, rounded at the bottom, sat on the ground in a galvanized wash tub for stability. He packed his utensils in a 3-gallon plastic bucket and his food in an equally worn 50-quart blue cooler."

Thanks for the article Bob. It always amazes people how much can be done with an old Weber kettle. I am trying to understand the part about
him cooking with hardwood, if that was chunks of wood or hardwood charcoal.
