I think I'll be adding a fire extinguisher to the grill accessories bucket today. There is one close by in the kitchen, but maybe not close enough.

I've had to use one once for a grill fire. You want it readily available when you need it. That's for sure. It's easy to panic. I've learned to keep my grease trays clean and trim any excess fat from large steaks. I remember opening the doors beneath the grill and the surge of air instantly made it that much worse.

The Woodwind, as the name implies, has a circulation fan so that thing would have had a 1/2" fat cap on a 19lb brisket and plenty of oxygen to fuel the fire. I'm afraid to think of what might have happened if the fire started at 3am. I just happened to walk out for no reason and check on it.
Putting the grease trap right next to the propane tank that feeds the sear box isn't the greatest idea.
I still can't get them on the phone after 3 days of trying. I dropped a post on the FB page with no response. However, they have been doing live streams so I know they didn't go out of business.....

Excellent idea. I ordered 4 from Home Depot after deciding I needed more in the house. We only had one in the kitchen and after experiencing a small fire, I decided 1 wasn't even close to enough. It almost took me the entire charge to put out a small grease fire.
Just an update following my grill fire should anyone care. Camp Chef is sending me a brand new grill for free, shipping and all. My model is discontinued, so they are sending me its replacement which actually has a few upgrades.
They've earned my business for life, that's for sure.

I definitely would especially since now I know how good their customer services is at helping out. The other two things that sold me on it initially was the quick ash clean-out cup thing and the optional side propane sear box.
I really didn't want to have two grills or be vacuuming out ash ever few cooks.
Quoted from Shredso:Leftovers fried rice. Old, cold white rice, what was left of yesterdays smoked ribs, an egg, some soy sauce, a little sugar and butter. This hit the spot after a handful of drinks.

Did I mention a handful of drinks? I meant to put this in the quarantine cooking thread. Ha! The ribs were grilled, everything else was cast iron skillet inside.
Anyone a buyer? It's only about $33/oz.

I'll pass, but I sometimes find steaks that look damn close at Costco for a whole lot less.
Quoted from DDandB-KID:Wagyu soon!!
[quoted image]
Costco labeled USDA Choice. I think maybe $7.99/lb. I don't find these often, but I know they aren't regular old steaks. There's some percentage of Japanese cattle in there. They were excellent!

Maybe one of you fellows can buy this comet and cook up that meat in the pic.
If I could get that to me at that price I’d be all over it! Charcoal burgers ftw!

Pork ribs yesterday...
Try Cherrywood on your pork ribs. I’ve always cook with Hickory and never knew how good cherry wood was with pork Until recently.

First of all, this thing is no joke - I heard a "CLANG" and it was UPS literally dropping it on the porch. Weighs every bit of ten lbs.
Well, I was so busy cooking I didn't take any pics....I started out like they said and seasoned it w with a couple pounds of bacon Friday night (BLTs). Sunday morning, I did bacon, eggs and hash browns, plenty of room for it all. The cleanup, or lack thereof, was great, not to mention the house not smelling like bacon for 3 days. Gonna take a little practice to get the temps right, once I threw the hash browns on it was hard to get the temp of the grillplate up any higher, even after cracking the burners wide open. It's a 4 burner 45k btu grill, no slouch. Next time I'll let it get a little hotter out of the gate. I got one of those temperature guns, it's interesting to see how the different zones heat up. Maybe try burgers this weekend, with pics. Another nice thing, no flareups, no matter how much grease you got... Also wanna try roasting some potatoes and veggies on this thing.
The utensils are heavy duty, too. I got the "starter kit", the grill and utensils, I think it was $147 shipped but if u look around there are 15% coupon deals out there, some in links on YouTube grilling vids.
