Bamboo Steamer on the BGE

In my quest to cook ALL THINKS BGE and to NEVER use our Kitchen Stove or Oven again, I fired up the BGE to about 600 Degrees with an open flame and tried my new Bamboo Steamer.

With the Wok as the vessel I place water in it until it was about a 1/2" from the edge of the bottom ring of the Bamboo Steamer. I placed two layers of Steamer full of Broccoli and Water Chestnuts, capped it with the Lid and came back about 15 minutes later to the MOST PERFECT STEAMED BROCOLLI I HAVE EVER ATE.

I moved the steamer to the side and prepared some General Tsos's Chicken in the wok, added the veggies and ... well it's all gone!
I guess I'm setting the electric steamer out to the Good Will collection box in the morning!

Good inovation! There's nothing wrong with improvising and utilizing your egg fully. From some of the past posts I've seen on bamboo steamers, be glad you had a wok of water underneath. :pinch: Do you want to share you gen tso's recipe
