Well, after being away for a few days with the kids at Seaworld, it was time to eat some properly cooked food. I'd been curious to try cooking with the spider and the smaller cast iron grate, so that's what I did, and I really like the results. Here is the first cook:

TRex ribeyes: sear temp was dome 600° but I know that it was a lot hotter in the spider

Lots of flames after opening the dome:

Setup the adjustable rig for some fajita chicken thighs. What? The cooker was already at 400 ° for the TRex roast...:)

All done:

Sure is good to be back!

    Now we are playing with fire. Love my spider and the HUH, HUH fun? Get a CI skillet now for blackening. Much more flames and smoke. :woohoo:
    Hope you had a great time at Seaworld.

    Thanks, Mike! All of us had a blast out there at Seaworld. I bought a cast iron skillet of sorts (round, with two little ears) and found out that it won't fit on the spider. What would you recommend I use to cut off the ears? I'd like to try it on the spider soon, and perhaps break it in with some WessB sliders or a blackened steak.

    Thanks!
