    Wings/22" Weber kettle/Vortex

    I've done plenty of wings with this set up. I know one time it was packed and I can't remember how many I did. I think it was 3 dozen. How many have others with this set up been able to cram in there? I got 46 good sized wings to do tomorrow night.

    I do have a 26" kettle, but have never done wings on it. I assume it would take a bit more time on it due to more volume to heat. Would the larger volume get just as hot as the 22?

    If you can't fit all 46 that would pretty much be a fail. Please video tape.

      Here’s my 26 loaded up with well over 3 doz drummies and flats on a couple different occasions.
      It handled it like a champ. I do flip them every 15-20 mins.

        I think I had ~43 on my 22 with a Vortex tonight. Could have easily fit a half dozen more. So 46 could fit but it starts getting a bit tight.

        I did wings on my 26 before I had a vortex with charcoal baskets and it didn't get as hot and took longer to cook. So the added volume does disperse the heat a bit more. It can be done but I would rather load up the 22 than space things out more on the 26.

          I got 44 wings on my 22 w/vortex but had to use the auxiliary shelf.

            Ah, but I see you got the gourmet grate with the hole in the middle. I got the SnS easy spin so I can crowd them in more towards the center. Thanks
