    Those look great! I can see you whiping you face to get the sauce off. lol BTW, if I may, use a drip pan or make one out of foil to keep the sauce from hitting your platesetter. To clean it like new. Do a clean burn. Fresh lump up the fire ring. turn the legs down on the platesetter and open that puppy up..You will have a clean Egg. The down side, you will find out how well you gasket is. You may cook your's off. If you do, just replace it with ine of the high temp gaskets.

    I usually do use a drip pan... ready to put the ribs on ooops no pan to be found.

    No biggie, like you said I can burn it off.

    As for my gasket...well, its pretty much toast anyway.

    I am due for a big "clean" though.

    I'm thinking I can put the PS, pizza stone and cast iron grill all in for the burn / clean.

    What temp should I let it get to? How long?

    Cheers! :cheer:

    Nicely done!
    Hope to have some ribs on myself if the coming days.
    Sobey's has Stirling Sivler Baby Back on sale this week.
    In additon to all this Eggfest organizing, I got roped into building a huge deck at for Brother-in-law. That's going to take away from Egging time over the next few week ends. We started it yesterday. I feel almost crippled today. Back, legs, shoulders. Everything hurts.
    I now I have to go back to work after over a weeks vacation. (At least I can get some rest there.)

    OK, How many Tims can we get on this post'''lol. What temp you ask and for how long? Take the DFMT off, open the bottom vent all the way. If you egg is on a deck, mak sure the screen is closed. Light that sucker, when the lump is all gone, you are done. Self cleaning Egg of sorts.... :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

    How long does it take to burn? (assuming lump to the top of the fire ring).

    I am thinking 4 hours to burn and 3 to cool. Your temp will be close to 90 dergrees
