    Fireboard - Looking to buy

    Hi,

    I am looking to buy Fireboard and accessories to install on my Weber Summit Kamado. Anything I should know before I purchase ? Any accessories I should add or not buy ? Here the picture of what I plan to purchase.

    Thanks !!

    Happy grillin'

    Any reason you’re buying the competition probe? It comes with probes. Curious how it goes when you get it hooked up. Summit is a terrific cooker.

      It is because they are giving 2 competition probes on order over 79$. I don’t truly see the need, the only difference is it makes a smaller hole in the meat.

      10-4, makes sense. Between the Summit and the Fireboard, you’re set up for some great cooks. Enjoy

    I don't have the comp probes (don't see the need), but that's the same setup I have and it works great.

      Do you feel as though your gasket that came with the adapter seals up well against the bowl of the Summit?

      au4stree I do not, but after some finagling I can get it tight enough. Still, not a perfect fit for the WSCG, but not a deal killer either.

      Wait, doesn’t the Weber summit have a round fan intake port built in? If so I’d probably get a bbq guru fan instead (I installed the guru fans on all me stuff before I ever had a fireboard and the fans work great with the fireboard).

        Yes it does have a round port. Thats why i am buying the new bracket from fireboard that allows to fit their blower within that port.

        May be a little late, but get a temp probe of 2 for the grill. I have at least one on every thing I cook on so I can leave them in place. A spare probe laying on the cook surface will work, but it’s not as clean looking.
