Chiminea???
Thrill
Posts: 32
Can anyone shed some light on the purpose of this thing? I saw one at the Atlanta store when I dashed in to get some supplies, but didn't take the time to ask about it. Is it used for cooking? Does it put out heat? Is it made of the same ceramics as the BGE?[p]Basically, "What it be?"[p]And since I'm posting, thanks to all the regular posters from a lurker that reads this forum religiously, but seldom posts a message. I'm sure that I'm not the only lurker out there, and I can undoubtedly profess that this is the best source of grillin'/Qin'/smokin' information on the Web.[p]Your friend in the sauce,[p]Thrill

Thrill,[p]It it simply an outdoor, wood or charcoal burning heater/fireplace, suitable for patio entertaining on a chilly evening... or warm.[p]Pete

Thrill,[p]I've think they are more for astetics (sp?) that for heat. Don't really know why you would want heat on a nice evening once it's started to cool off! The Mini grill fits on the top (with the tall portion removed) and I've hear of people grilling on that.[p]What the heck, its just money! Get it![p]Smokey

Actually, Smokey, they put out quite a bit of heat on a chilly evening. Unlike most other chimineas, these won't crack at high temps & require no sand in the bottom. The chimney can be removed and the grill grate from the mini fits right on the bottom part. We have cooked on ours numerous times with great success. JCA
