Hey All -
I want to try some multi-level cooks on the SJG mini, but I am unsure of the temp differences between the top grate (about 4" down from the top of the pot), and the bottom grate (about 3.5" below the top grate). I have the bottom cut out, and I'm using a charcoal grate sitting on the steamer insert lip and on top of that sits a 9" x2" pie pan, and on top of that sits the bottom SJ cooking grate.
I've been able to get it easily between 325-350 to do a spatchcocked chicken on top grate, but about what temp do you think the bottom grate would run at if the top in is that range? I'd like to do two spatchcocked birds, but I only have the one maverick ET732 to check the temp.
I realize I'm asking you to guess the temp differences between the top and bottom grates, but a ballpark figure from your experiences running food on the top and bottom would greatly help!
