temp of PBC st the bottom

[Advantage49]

a Co worker is moving and offered his PBC for 1/3 of the cost of a new one, but where I would setup would be on a wood deck. Can anyone tell me how hot these get at the bottom and do you think it would damage a wood deck. Also would SnS work with a PBC?

Thaks!

Get a 4 of those 1ftx1ft paving stones at a big box retailer for a few bucks each, make one big square pad, and you should be good to go.

And I would venture to say no to the SnS working with the PBC... not sure what the point of using it would be...

Reason for asking about the SNS is because I have the technique down lol, and don't want to part ways with it!

Thank for the paver idea I might use that for some other projects as well.

I have said over and over again... and hold to the argument that the PBC and Weber w/ SnS should not compete with or replace one another.... It is my opinion that they compliment each other extremely well and provide a setup for you to do a lot techniques, styles, and quantities of food... I have both and love them each!

Well said and couldn't agree more!

I have both a kettle and two Pit Barrels along with a gasser sitting on the deck. All three get enough work to justify their existence.

I think the only potential damage may result from sparks from the air intake hole at the bottom. I've never seen sparks shoot out from there though.
Pavers or bricks like Nate said above and maybe something to protect the deck near the lower hole and you should be good.

I second this.
