  • Just use wood.

  • That doesn't give much advice.

  • @PortPowerKS yeah... bet that'd taste good... :S

  • What about the pyramid they talk about

  • You are correct sir.

  • 2 words: FlameDisk ;)

  • You need a cooler place on the grill to move food in case of flare-ups.

  • So that you can have a hot side and a cool side of the grill.

  • why only 2/3 of the grill?

  • lol i actually use more than that but thanks for the advice!
