Salt Block Cooking?
Anyone do it successfully? I received an 8" x 12" pink block for Christmas and research makes me think it might be too salty and I should just use it for pretty. I hate to turn down a good tool, though, if it is one...

Bump!
HEY ROSS!! I just acquired a nice block at Christmas and I want to give it a go. I figure I'd use it in my Primo, so I'm happy to see you used a BGE. One thing, though - how do you know how hot your fire is? The recommended temp ceiling for the blocks (that I've seen) is 450°. I know I can exceed that in a heartbeat and I'd hate to bust my block into pieces... Thanks in advance!

Thanks Arlin, if you can keep your fire down to 500* you should be OK do not worry about the sale it gives a wonderful flavor we cook all our fish on it

Ha! My first thought was "Ask Ross!". Apparently, I'm not alone.
