bge surprise and another use for the large bge

 Yesterday I went to fire the egg up for some steaks after 4 days of neglect on the patio. Loaded the lump up to the top of the firebox and lit her up. I then proceeded to clean the ash, I stick my tool in and to my surprise out leaps a MOUSE over my ash tool and ash pail. Dropped my tool and almost fell over from surprise LOL.

 I think if you have an eggware top and adjust your egg cover a little (I know I closed it)  the top opens enough to let the mice in to clean your grill for you (another thing I noticed my grill was very clean when I know I did 2 chickens last and left it a mess). Well I brought it up to 750 to cleanup the egg for a few minutes.
   Disclaimer  No mice were harmed in this cook I think.

I'd be doing a clean burn, those buggers carry a lot of bad guys.

Bad guys die way below 750. You are safe!

Gads I hate rodents and vermin!  I typically remove my grill/grills when I cover 'em up for a few. Our cat is worthless and I have to manage rodent control myownself.

If you had the ceramic cap on and the lower vent shut, that must be one hell of a gasket gap, I'd think about changing it.
