@R2Egg2Q - What's your set-up for your 2 tiered mini?Flint, Michigan
-
What price you seeing in your area for the mini?Columbia, SC --- LBGE 2011 -- MINI BGE 2013

What baking stone do you use with the mini? I just looked up "8 1/2 pizza stone" on amazon and the ones I found got bad reviews.....said they caught on fire if around a flame. That won't do on the mini!

Fred19Flintstone said:@R2Egg2Q - What's your set-up for your 2 tiered mini?
My mini came with a 9 1/2" SS grid that I used with 2 1/2" SS machine screws & SS washers/nuts for the upper tier. It barely fits and needs to sit perfectly on the 10" grid for the lid to close right. I think an ideal size would be 8 1/2-9" diameter.Chubbs said:What price you seeing in your area for the mini?
I think $399 in my area of CA.rustypotts said:What baking stone do you use with the mini? I just looked up "8 1/2 pizza stone" on amazon and the ones I found got bad reviews.....said they caught on fire if around a flame. That won't do on the mini!
I wouldn't take that 1 review as being accurate. Even that reviewer says "Or perhaps there was some residue of absorbed fat in the porous stone...". Those old stone brand 8 1/2" stones are the standard stones used by a bunch of EggHeads. I've used mine on my mini and other cookers many times with no issues.XL, Large, Small, Mini Eggs, Shirley Fabrication 24x36 Patio, Humphrey's Weekender, Karubecue C-60, MAK 1-Star General, Hasty Bake Gourmet, Santa Maria Grill, Webers: 14" WSM, 22.5" OTG, 22.5" Kettle Premium, WGA Charcoal, Summit S-620 NG

Don't you mean Griswold hen?
Merry Christmas! -
(Large + Small) / 2 = Medium. Based on today's discussion, I am no longer second guessing my choice of a medium.

Village Idiot said:You can cook small meals on them.Did you make that bacon jam, I did a few scallops last night and thought about how nice they would have been with some of that stuff on the top, if so do you have a recipe link?
-
Hey Stoater,No, it's Better Than Good Bacon Jam, and I get it from our H.E.B. grocery store, which is in most parts of Texas. If you're not from around here, I found a link where you can order it. It's mighty good, and I use it for other things, like a glaze on pork chops.__________________________________________Dripping Springs, Texas.Just west of Austintatious

Thanks Vl, I'm in Canada Eh! Looks like they are temporarily out of stock, guess I will have to try making some, I remember eating something similar in the angel inn in niagara on the lake scallops wrapped in prosciutto with bacon jam on top, the slavers are trippin me!

I've been looking at Weber's & other grids, but can't find a 9". Anybody know where I can find one? I would prefer SS.Flint, Michigan -
Maybe use a High Question fire grate for the large egg. It's the only 9 inch grid I could find on the interwebs.

Holy Moly! I didn't think of using a High Que grate. The grid is a little pricey, but it would do the trick! Thanks!Flint, Michigan
