Smokey Joe Silver

Can you cook dinner for a family of five, 4 of which are adult eaters on a Smokey Joe Silver?

You're Damn right you can!

This is an excellent grill.

As of late, I've been breaking this puppy out for quick and easy grill sessions. I've discovered that it's a Big Ass Grill in a small package. The benefits are numerous.
1. EASY CLEANUP
2. LESS CHARCOAL
3. EFFICIENT USE OF CHARCOAL (directly related to No. 2)
4. GREAT HEAT! (Yes, this little hummer gets it done).
5. BIG WEBER KETTLE COOKING BENEFITS IN A SMALL PACKAGE

I've been reading posts from Smokey Joe Silver users for quite some time. Lots of doubters out there and Grill Masters struggling with sustaining heat. I don't get it, I've never gotten it. This little grill has always been an efficient and reliable source of excellent grilling heat.

So I recently documented a cook. Nice chunk of USDA choice London Broil (Top Round). Marinated in "Off-The-Shelf" Teryiaki for 45 minutes. Here's some entering specifications:

1. Location: Pacific Northwest
2. Weather: Very Breezy - 50 degrees F
3. Charcoal Type: STUBBS from Lowes Hardware
4. Charcoal QTY: 33 Briquettes

******Now for the PIC's****
This whole cook was conducted with the Lid On.


USDA CHOICE CHEAP BEEF


33 STUB'S Briquette's


Coals Are Ready







After First Flip - 6 minutes

All Cooking was done with the Lid ON.





Pulled at Medium Rare (135 degrees F) and rested for 10 minutes

Pass those slices out, with some Rice and Veggies and you've got yourself some damn dinner!




450 Degrees F

33 Briq's, 45 minutes after the Beef was pulled from the grill.

I Could bake a potatoe with the left-over heat!
