Hi all,
I'm a new WSM owner and am interested in being able to grill on it. I've seen the "Grilling on the Weber Bullet" section that gives a couple of set-ups but I had a couple of my own suggestions for a set-up. They're both incredibley simple and I wanted to run it by the forum for your thoughts:
Both involve keeping the middle and top sections attached:
Set-up 1:
1) Place bottom cooking grate in it's normal position
2) Put charcoal ring on bottom cooking grate
3) Put coals on the bottom cooking grate (maybe buy a spare grate for this purpose?)
4) Place top cooking grate in it's normal position
5) Place food on upper cooking grate
Set up 2: (my preferred)
1) Place charcoal grate on the flanges in the middle cooking section
2) Place charcoal ring on top of charcoal grate
3) Put coals on the charcoal grate
4) Place bottom cooking grate on top of charcoal ring
5) Place food on bottom cooking grate
Set-up 2 is practically the same as the "Turing up the Heat" method here: http://www.virtualweberbullet.com/grilling.html but involves using the lower cooking grate instead of having to buy a new grate. I can't understand why the website recommends buying a new one.... am I missing something obvious here?
Any advice much appreciated!
Thanks
David
