Unfortunately I don’t have a awning to keep the rain off of the grill in bad weather. Well, I sure hadn’t planned on letting a little storm derail my plans of smoking ribs Saturday. So, does anyone know of a good fix for keeping the rain out of a vision grill top vent? I contacted SmokeWare and unfortunately their cap does not fit the vision.
Shop IMPERIAL 4-in dia Galvanized Steel Rain Cap in the Duct Caps department at Lowe's.com. Designed for rooftop venting, this Imperial 4-in Rain Cap is used to cap pipe that extends through the roof. The vent cap helps control back drafts and
I am thinking just set it over the vent, obviously if it is windy out, this might blow off...
Or even something like a duct end cap, available in stock in 6" and 8" sizes. Use tin snips or a drill to make holes in the sides, and let it sit over the top vent of the manado...
bbq_joe I think it is high, too. You might want to invest in one of those umbrellas and set it up so you can take it down when you don’t need it. That way you and your grill stay dry.
I think I’m merely going to zip tie an umbrella to a lawn chair this weekend. The grill is new and I am dying to have a slab of ribs. I can’t let a little rain stop me.
Well, afraid it would restrict to much air flow I ended up driving down the road to another hardware store. I found what I had seen on some other sites....
So, $10 will take care of my issue I think......for now.
Set a brick or rock on top of it so the wind won’t blow it off. If you want to be fancy you can put some gasket material where it contacts the kamado so you don’t scratch it.
