RE: Is that bottom picture from when..







Do you have a Plate Setter or EQUAL for your Primo?
The plate setter is a 3-legged piece of 20mm CERAMIC which goes immediately OVER the fire and raises the grill grate by 10mm or so. This is for INDIRECT COOKING.

The Plate Setter ALSO restricts heat transfer FROM the charcoal by BLOCKING IT. So, you have convection but not much direct radiation from the charcoal.

Also, do you use LUMP as opposed to man-made BRIQUETTES? Brick-ettes are made with real charcoal and a FILLER which makes a lot of ASH. I suspect real lump burns hotter, too. and definately LONGER, especially the big pieces possible when buying good stuff. I use Royal Oak or BigGreenEgg brands. Both are off the same prodution line. A few other brands get heavy play BACK EAST but are NOT available in California. I can buy Mexican Mequite, South American Hardwoods and COCONUT lump all day long.

PHOTO IS OF Plate Setter installed legs UP with an ADDITIONAL heat deflector / air gapped. This prevents the pizza stone from getting TOO HOT and burning the crust!
