Garage Sale Score - Disc WOK

hamiltont · 07-10-2011, 01:03 PM

A few weeks ago I was inspired by Knucklhed BBQ with this post http://www.bbq-brethren.com/forum/sh...=109336&page=1 . The next week I had a brand new 20" Disc. Our neighbor welded up the hole & put a couple horseshoes on for handles. I was set! Then last Friday I was coming home from work & there was a Disc WOK & Burner just sitting there just as pretty as the day at a Garage Sale. So I stopped.

I said Discada? NO DISCO! Not Discada? NO DISCO! Whatever! How much? $40. Give ya $20. No, lady here earlier & went to bank for money. I said - Do you see her here now? NO! I said - Neither do I. $30 and that's it!

Now I had 2 discs (1 new & 1 used) & a practically new burner. The knob was missing but I found that a stove burner knob fits pretty good. A Vise-Grip is doing the job for now. The burner has an inner & outer ring and adjusts from just the inner ring on low to both on high. More control that anything I've ever cooked on. WOHOO!! Here are some pics from this morning's breakfast. Cheers!!!

All Seasoned & Ready to Go:

The Burner:

Sausage:

Potatoes:

All Mixed Together with Scrambled Eggs:

Almost Forgot to Take a PIC of the Plate (The 505 Green Chile was perfect with it!)

Thanks for Looking...

Awesome and I have a bunch of horse shoes... Hmmmm

Discadas are becoming quite popular, and yours looks like it performs wonderfully!

I want' some of that breakfast! Had some just like that off a discada at the 2004 Terlingua International chili cook offs. It was the best meal I had the whole extended weekend, including all the beans and chili that I judged for the event.

Wood handles would be a good idea! I've been using welding gloves to handle it when it's hot but even with those you need to be quick.

Cheers!!!

The breakfast was truly delicious, and simple. JD Sausage, potatoes and scrambled eggs. I was amazed that nothing stuck to the WOK being the maiden voyage & all. We're already making plans for future cooks with it. Cheers!!!

One extra plate please.

KnucklHed BBQ · 07-11-2011, 11:58 AM

Whooaaa-there! Hawt diggiddy!

Thanks for the props but you fully out did me! Great lookin breakfast!

Since you've got 2 of em, now you have a lid!

I see you slapped the shoes on the under side of the disc... mine are on top cuz I forgot to give specific intructions to my buddy that welded em.

They actually don't get in the way nearly as much as I thought they would though.

And the no-sticking? crazy huh? Mine even has quite a bit of pitting from rust and still works great!
