@@HeavyMetalBarBQueI posted wanting to paint mine on the FB page - and a lot people said you can paint the enamel ! How long have you had it like this for?
@@felixs1340 Years and years and years......also have my WSM smoker painted.

Medium to almost medium well. But I do like using your rotisserie utensil to cook it. I made my own Vortex and I would still recommend using a seasoned Weber sear grate underneath it but with the wider side up and the grate flipped so it’s above the adjacent wire rack.
Steak on a stick would be my idea of a cave man steak. I was worried at the beginning that you were going to go straight on the coals. Then, I recalled that you used lava rocks in your cave man steak challenge. So I was thinking "No he's not!" Then you brought out the stick, and I was like YES! Brilliant use of the vortex and center grate cut out. Thanks Ken. BTW great looking Rib-eye.
You were not kidding when you said you were not done. Will try the closed vent next time i use my poortex (am making a new slightly larger one based on measurments i got from Biggs, so i should be able to get the temps a bit higher if needed).
:-) I'm actually looking to make a smaller version Poortex......less fuel consumption and a more concentrated direct heat. Kinda funny huh??? Metal On! \m/
@@HeavyMetalBarBQue Had to re-visit your video so I could share it with a friend. I've used this technique a few times already, and it's foolproof and deliciously juicy.
This is is an original and awesome idea! You sir have started the next IT thing to do! You need to challenge people to try this. It looked amazing and just plain old fashioned fun! It's like making hotdogs camping with those weenie sticks when we were kids but with a Weber and a Ribeye! I give this video a 10! That good sir is metal!! Woooohhhoooo \m/
Thanks Brother! I Like your analogy......that's good! I'm only competing with myself......I challenge only Me! :-) Metal On Bro.....You know what's up! \m/
@@HeavyMetalBarBQue Works great on my cast iron grate! I sear the steak first, then cook it indirectly. To avoid over cooking. The hot surface is what actually creates the sear, not the fire. That's why you can get a great sear with a cast iron pan over an electric oven.
Delicious ribeye!! My favorite cut, could eat one everyday if I was rich😂Loved your technique, I'm a huge fan of the all over sear vs sear marks. That crust is the best. Thanks for sharing😃.
You gotta make one! A Stainless mixing bowl with the bottom cut out......I can see the Vid now! :-) I actually have a very small mixing bowl that I plan on hacking...just for a smaller direct cook. It will hold and use less charcoal also. We'll see??? Hack On! \m/
I'm not sure why the vortex would damage the grate anymore than using a more traditional methods like coal baskets, rails, slow n sear. the grate is always above the heat. What damage were you seeing?
Trust me my friend! If you've never had or used one, make sure You are using a Stainless Steel grate and not Chrome plated or Cast Iron Grates because it will burn off the finish and then they will Rust! This Vortex is Not a SnS.......it's a Blast Furnace! 🔥 Don't believe Me....Get One! Metal On My Friend! \🔥/
Hey PG! If a magnet sticks to them they are chrome plated and will eventually rust. I have several videos showing what Stainless Steel grates I replaced my Master Touch grates with. Metal On! \🔥/
The sear really wasn't that good, part of the reason you use grates is to actually get a sear. You ever wonder why grill marks appear on meat? That is where the meat contact a hot metal surface! The air, and dancing flames do not keep heat in one spot well!
Hey there My Friend! I'm hoping to engage in conversation if You are willing? I was wondering if You could be more specific with your comment on BAD advice/information?

BTW........nice New Master Touch You got there.......I'll be watching! \m/
Would ya just look at it? Look at that. Just look at it. 😂
Your no grate system is perfect for the Vortex and for indirect. Thx for sharing this info with us..!
Just tried it. I used your internal temps and sear at end method. Might be the best steak I ever had. Def better than Longhorns.
Thanks Bro! Glad it worked for You too! That makes all my work worth while to hear that! Metal On!
Ken. You are the true mad scientist barbecue. Freekin Brilliant, And you didn’t need to spin the grate 10 times. Impressive
Thanks Meat! Who needs a stinken' grate?.........not Me! :-) \m/
Nice tip on managing the bottom vent and a fine looking steak Ken.
Thanks Jeff! Passing on what has worked for me.
Leave it to you to come off the top rope. That was a cool trick using the spit rod and roty fork. Perfect medium rare. One hot fire. Nice job.
Thanks to You.....It's all Your fault! :-)

You know what, this video popped up in my feed and I wasn't expecting much but you did a great job! Good video, thank you.
Thanks!......I truly appreciate that! 👍 Hope You find time to take a look at more of my stuff......You never know what You might see. 😁
Metal On My Friend! \🔥/
I'd say that is more medium-well. Certainly not medium-rare. But still looked tasty. Nice tip on the vent, thanks!
Thanks for checking it out!
Is that a naked Kettle grill you got there ? How did you make it that color?
😁 No...not naked. I spray painted it High Temp Silver. I like Stainless pieces and parts......and like the look of the silver.

Nothing like a steak roasting on an open fire. AWESOME HMB🤘

Thanks! Metal On! \🔥/
Great video. Can I ask you, what do you have under your vortex? Looks like some kind of mesh.
Thanks Bro! It's small hole expanded metal to keep small pieces of lump from falling through the regular charcoal grate. Metal On! \m/
That’s an awesome method. That sear was the bomb
How about using the cast iron insert instead so it doesn’t get ruined by the high heat?
I wouldn't do it. I'de only recommend using Stainless Steel grates. If you try it.....let me know how that worked out. Metal On!

Yessire the way to do it Ken!
You are not lost in the woods mr McGyver.. lol
Cheers my man!
Thanks Brother! Give it a try sometime.....you will be amazed! LLLLLL Cheers!
That was one good looking steak. Looked as good as waygu. Great innovation & instruction as always! 👍
Hey Jon! I know.....I could not believe what the butcher brought out? So Good! Thanks Bro! \m/

Yeah that thing was left over the fire way long.

@@HeavyMetalBarBQue ok. I have just bought a master touch ,Plus), which I’m sure is heavy gauge stainless?

Beautiful looking hunk of meat. Interesting color of your weber grill.
Thanks............It's Custom! :-) Gotta go back and watch old Vids for the evolution. \m/
05:10 What the heck is that thing you skewered the steak with? It looks like a rotisserie attachment.
😁 👍 Yep........it was! Good eye Bro! Metal On! \m/
Great job rockin' the grill...
You liked that one huh? :-)
Yup. Wish I could do this:

Perfectly cooked steak👍👍
Thank You Sir!
Flame On HMB... this is a winner... you have taking home the gold metal \m/
Yo Ken, do you think the Vortex will damage the lid to the kettle, do to extreme heat?
Hey Chris! An Olympics reference.......Nice! :-) Your turn.......Burn the Place Down! \m/
It's a Weber.......it'll be fine! :-)
Hahaha! I'll try and put something together... burn baby burn... \m/

Put that electric knife away.
What do You mean?........Everyone Loves the old school Knife! 🤘
You need to review Weber's suggestions on how to grill a steak. You're making way too hard man!!!
I know.......but where's the fun in that? \m/
Oh yeah \m/
