Hi, my name is Darrell. I'm an OTR truck driver for over 25 years. During my off time I love doing backyard cooks. I have a 48" Lang Deluxe smoker, Rec-Tec pellet smoker,1 Weber Genesis 330, 1 Weber Performer (blue), 2 Weber kettles (1 black and 1 Copper), 1 26" Weber kettle, a WSM, 8 Maverick Redi Chek thermometers, a PartyQ, 2 SnS, Grill Grates, Cast Iron grates, 1 ThermoPop (orange) and 2 ThermoPens (pink and orange) and planning on adding more cooking accessories. Now I have an Anova sous vide, the Dragon blower and 2 Chef alarms from Thermoworks.

Danjohnston949 Its an insert that you put into your kettle or Kamodo. I use it on both. Its a conical stainless insert that can be used to sear meats and do okay low and slow. But I use it to make wings. It Works awesome. You can see it vaguely in the picture above. Thats why he has the wings set up in a circle. They are going around the outside of the Vortex. The link below will take you to their website, where you can buy one.

Where Can I Purchase a Vortex for My Smoker or Grill?

http://vortexbbq.com/where-to-buy/

The Vortex can redirect the flow of heat up and around the meat which can turn your kettle into a true indirect ‘smoker’.

Vortex. Designed for use in any Kettle or Kamado style grill, Vortex grilled wings are super easy and crsipy. It's great for direct or indirect grilling.

Gents, I may be ignorant on the vortex, but I can assure you I am an expert on cold brew. That is for +-1 month and I switch to Coffee & Brandy! Thanks, Dan
