I almost forgot to warn you, get it good and hot for the first time before you cook with it, as there is a liner on the inside you need to scrape out and it's way easier after you get it hot and it peels.
it cooks great, the hard part is actually cutting it in half, and finding a grate that works. but any stainless grate will do. it's deep enough to throw onions or peppers right on the coals and still have food cooking up top as well. never…
we used a keg turned sideways and cut in half. (we originally tried a sheet metal band saw but after 2 new carbide blades we went to the plasma cutter). drilled some holes to mount the rack. and some square stock for a stand. i'll have pictures…
The tools we use reflect the type of cooking we do. Right or wrong doesn't enter into it. It's about what gets our particular job done. Discuss it here.
