I thought I would try out my new cooking set-up in my mini-max. I put on 12 bacon wrapped potatoes, 4 brats and 2 burgers. I still had room if I had more food if needed. The mini-max can definitely handle a cook for 4 people.

    There is a fine looking, awesome cook! Love the bacon wrapped potatoes. What kind of potatoes are they?
    Was this a meal for four? Something that good looking, I think I could slam by myself.

    That's impressive.

    Any road will take you there if you don't know where you're going.

    It was a meal for 1 with some left-overs but yes, 1 burger, 1 brat and 6 appetizers. I was going to do another brat but I had to stop.

    The potatoes are called white delights. My grocery store has 3 different kinds of mini potatoes and these are my favorite. Very sweet. I put a dozen in the microwave for 3 minutes then wrapped in bacon and tossed in hot wing sauce.

    I am going to try that. I will try to find those potatoes, and bacon them up!
    thank you for the information.

    Thanks

    The 2nd tier is the BGE grid. The lower is a cheap Ø13.5" weber replacement grate.

    Here is more info on making everything

    Bacon wrapped dates on the egg are great too.  Change of pace and you don't have to pre-cook the dates
