    Started using the little Smokey Joe Silver a lot more

    Title says it. I'm using it more now that I have the 22" kettle, actually. There are some really good things about it, for steaks, burgers, and dogs:

    1) Half a chimney of briquettes covers the bottom of the grill; it's economical.

    2) Half a chimney of briquettes covers the bottom of the grill; it covers from edge to edge, so the entire surface of the grate is useable.

    3) The cooking grate sits about 2-3" over the top of the charcoal; direct heat is right there.

    4) Don't touch the vents with your fingers, you'll burn them. Quickly, and badly. Well, that one might not be an advantage.


    It's a nice simple little grill. They retail for something like $30, I got mine on sale a couple years ago for $19. But even for $30, you can't really go wrong.

          It's a nice little cooker. It's perfect for dinner for 2 or brats for 4. I cooked brats in mine last week.

            I use mine for camping. It's so versatile I stopped using my Coleman stove, put the skillet right on the grates instead.

              I do the same for tailgates. Make a big pot of chili in advance and use the grate like a stove burner. Perfect!
