The much awaited arrival has finally happened! Below are pictures of the assembly as it went along. Seeing what is inside one of these makes it easier to understand how they work. Here is the cart it is going on. It’s a Harbor freight tool cart that is rated at 450 pounds and has good 5 inch casters. I turned the top tray upside down to make it table, all the bolts still fit so no drilling was needed. The best part is with a coupon it was only $68.00. The pictures are in rough order as I assembled it. The lava rock kit is an option I bought to get a bit more Smokey flavor. It’s a 40,000 BTU unit which should be just fine. The cooking area is about 12 inches by 24 inches. I’ll get it plumed to propane tomorrow.
With those kind of BTU you could also use it as an outdoor deep fry station. Cast iron pot and a couple jugs of oil and you're in......or more correctly, out(side).
They’re mostly in commercial kitchens and food trucks. I love the flavor they produce on steaks, burgers, and chicken. If you remember the flavor that those old gas grills with lava rocks produced it’s like that.
We haven’t used the Chudd in a couple of months. The last time was doing smash burgers and Oklahoma onion burgers. It is great at both. My MCS tends to get the best of me regularly.
