Hi All
So I've outfitted my weber performer with their gourmet searing grate. I've yet to cook on it but temps are in the '50s today and the urge is there :-D
As recent empty nesters I'm just cooking for the two of us and curious about cooking on this thing using a minimum of briquettes.
To that end please tell me what you think of this method - I haven't tried it yet.
I think this method might be effective with kabobs? We'll rarely eat steak, but do you think a single layer this close to the searing grate will sear a couple of 8oz steaks? Will flare ups be more of an issue with briquettes this close to the grate?
Let me know what you think. It will be 5 days or so before I need to bbq again and looking forward to input here from the old hands.
1. Baskets are moved out of the way and the chimney with X amount of briquettes is started over the propane assist.
2. Baskets are put back in place, then the "other" grate that came with the gourmet system over them, then the briquettes are placed over that grate in a single layer.
3. Then the searing grate is placed over the baskets and allowed to heat up.
