I am a color guy, as color means flavor and crisp skin. And yours is really good.
Now a question for me, what rub, and how did you prep the legs, like a flour roll, with rub, or rub, and another step.

Liberal dousing and about a thirty minute setting.

Nope, will not work with Pizza, just burns the crust.

I don't use the vortex for pizza. I just load the WSK with coal and a couple of chunks of oak. The stone is rasied with fire bricks. Stone and dome temps can be managed between 600 and 800F depending on the dough.

I've always used mine on the lower grate also, excellent results.

Use my Vortex in my WSCGC on the bottom as well and it is always excellent. Don't even have to flip the lid every so often like you do on the kettle.

may I ask how do you like the grill, how long have you had it and would you do it again?

Mike, that chicken looks fantastic!

I had a vortex before the WSK so it's a just a normal one.
Mine is too tall to use with the coal grate in the upper position and to have the center gbs grate in place.
This is the one I have.

I’d bet the medium size would be good. Maybe Marty Owens will see this and respond?

Thank you Dan and Timothy.
Since Amazon has good return policy, I bought the medium and large so I can get a better idea which one fits better.
I’ll report back.
I was a bit skeptical about the need for a Vortex, then I decided to grab a QuliMetal version a couple weeks ago
I've done 2 chicken thigh cooks with it so far and it is a gamechanger. With a much smaller charcoal load it changes the convection in the WSK to where cooking indirect I hit the target temps around the same time the skin gets crispy. Very nice, thinking about a big porterhouse for Fathers Day, the searing should be great.
