    This is a great idea. I'm going to overnight brine the chicken thighs and use buttermilk as wet ingredient for the dredge. I've never thought to do chicken this way. It should also be healthier than frying it (kinda like airfrying). Thanks bro for this video.

    I have been looking at different grills/smokers for a while now, and I think between you and Harry Soo you have both helped sell me on the Weber Summit. I was initially looking at a smoky mountain or an Old Country Brazos, (while the Brazos looks like a real good deal for the price point, I don't want to spend my whole day managing a firebox). The summit looks like is has the versatility I'd really enjoy more, and with a blower system it looks like I can keep up rock solid temperatures. Thanks for the videos

    I just want to say, while I thought the Vortex would just be a so-so accessory to use, it really is a game changer. I've done a ton of chicken with it ( which everyone loves the end result ), but will go with lamb chops tonight, where I usually use baskets or a Slow n Sear on my Summit Charcoal. Thank you for bringing it to my attention.
    Thank you, again, for promoting some of the Suckle Busters products. I love them all I have bought! Had a chance to visit a retail store that carried some S.B. items when I went out of town. You need to try their peach BBQ sauce. DELICIOUS! Also, I would recommend you try out some 3 Eyz seasoning on pork. My brother-in-law gave me a bag, and it is super-good.

    • @luvyesmusici4886
      @luvyesmusici4886 Рік тому +1

      @@cindykee3719 It is something you don’t have to have. It is a funnel with two sides. Having the wider side up is great for indirect l, and then using a grate over it to sear items at the end.
      With the narrow side up it does actually funnel and concentrate the heat up and around. I am not sure how much of the heat goes out my top center vent on my Weber Charcoal Summit/Kamado, but when I spray oil on my wings they are certainly crispier, and everything cooks faster, Yes, I do flip, but I also turn my grate at times 180 degrees and 90 degrees. Again, a great tool that works, and it is fun finding something that actually works, but it is not necessary to have. It is one of the cheapest investment you can make, and there are generic versions, but it is my go to tool and certain cooking situations. I know what I like, but it is the feedback from my family that makes the Vortex a clear winner.
      Eventually your baskets will go/wear out after much use. You can choose to replace them, get Slow n Sear or a Vortex, or something else. The further you go trying things and cooking often, you will find things that you like that expand your cooking game. Last thing ai want to try and find us a 24 inch cast iron plancha to use as a big griddle. I have a cast iron griddle and drip pan, and a big cast iron pan, but I would certainly have more fun, and feel I would be complete. Some folks never get accessories or really enjoy their time outside, but it has certainly become a great escape for me, and something that I occasionally feel I have mastered, until I learn I haven’t. Take notes, every cook is different, get out of your comfort zone and have fun, while being safe.

      The last thing I bought was a cheap weed burner from Harbor Freight Tools for $25 that I hook up to a propane tank. It gets my charcoal going in a few minutes. Wear a heat resistant glove and sunglasses or glasses to be safe. It had a cheap weld for the halo part that spread the flame, and that broke off, but it still works. No need for a chimney any more, well, rarely. Some people spend over $200 for a tool to light their charcoal.

    Once the temperature hit 400 degrees, did you close down the lower vents at all? And it looks like you kept the top vents almost all the way open. Is this how you got the temps to stay down at 375? I had a hard time keeping my temps below 400 when I did this with the char baskets (I don't have a Vortex). I had to really choke down the vents to keep it from continuing to climb. Thanks for your videos!

    • @DskiGrillz
      @DskiGrillz  Рік тому +1

      You are correct. I adjusted the bottom/intake dampers to help control the temperature. The vortex performed very well by having the center concentration of heat which browned up all of the chicken evenly. I luckily was able to close the lid and set the intake at about 3/4 open and it maintained the temps. Hope this helps!

    Nice video and presentation. What size Vortex you using in that 22.5" kettle? I've heard some people say, go with the small one, the Medium and Large are too big.

      The grill I’m using is 24”. I purchased the large. Thanks for checking out the video.

    Love your videos. I've used much of your content on my WSC. What size Vortex do you have for your WSC?
