I just ordered a Karubecue and read the manual online. I have a few questions that I hope you could answer.
In the manual, Bill recommends as a "pro tip" PRO-TIP: USE THE FIREBOX LID. IT IMPROVES FLAVOR AND BARK AND REDUCES SPARKING AND FUEL CONSUMPTION. I haven't read much about the lid's use on this site. Any thoughts or recommendations on its use?
Secondly, when you start a chimney full of lump charcoal and dump that into the firebox to build a coal bed, doesn't that take quite a while to break down to the point that you can start adding wood? How long should I plan for this starting up step to take before I can add wood and place my meat in the cookbox? Thanks in advance for any replies.
