    Well no cooking today, It's a demo model that have been used for three days, so had to give it a good "clean" burn to get rid of all the grease.
    Now i have a clean grid and platesetter 8-)
    The gasket was already "gone", when i got it, but i got a Nomex gasket for free, and i plan to replace it tomorrow.

    And to the OP-Welcome-lots of ggers willing to help here so when in doubt just ask the question-but remember the answer may come from several perspectives.

    Good to have you - don't forget to put 5/6/2013 in your daytimer so you can celebrate its first birthday!!!  Also, be careful when you hug it goodnight - it may still be hot from your latest cook.

    Hugging a recently used egg gives me a warm feeling......when it starts to burn you may want to see your doctor
