Vortex - SMALL
Enhance your charcoal cooking experience. Take control of your fire by redirecting the flow of heat in your pit. Whether you're looking for the perfect searing zone, or a true indirect heat flow across your kettle or ceramic grill. Works with Lump Charcoal or Briquettes.
USE THE VORTEX FOR:
INDIRECT
Low & Slow Cooking/Smoking
The Vortex can redirect the flow of heat up and around the meat which can turn your kettle into a true indirect ‘smoker’.
INDIRECT-DIRECT
High Heat Indirect Cooking
It all started in an effort to get ‘fried-like’ skin on my chicken wings on the grill.
DIRECT
High Heat Searing
This is your searing option. Picture the back of a jet engine where the fire is shooting out of the exhaust cones. This is what you will get that intense sear from.
INFRARED
Radiant Heat
Due to the grate-to-lid height on a kettle, making an upright (or ‘beer can’) chicken can be difficult to cook in an 18.5” or 22.5” kettle.
