Raised direct

what is a good option of raised direct cooking

Langner91 · April 2015

I just did chicken thighs "raised direct." I used three empty soda cans on top of the fire ring, below the grid. Puts you right at the felt line.

Beer cans work too. But, I tend to drink beer from bottles.

I got three 4" x 6" x 1" (approximately) fire bricks at the local mason yard for my local mason yard for my XL a couple of weeks ago. Works for me for now. $5 i think.

Woo2 for my large works great for both direct and indirect w/ platesetter

I use fire bricks, too.

Fire bricks work great.

Before I got my Woo, (I have 2 cooking grates) I put a cooking grate on the fire ring, then put 3 fire bricks on top, lastly put the second grate on top of the bricks.

That way if there was a sudden shift, the bricks wouldn't fall into the fire.

Grid on fire ring, second grid (smaller Weber cheapo) with three carriage bolt legs/stilts. Bolts stay attached to the small grid so I can lift the whole assembly out when needed.

I should do something more "permanent" I guess. I almost never cook on the grid on the fire ring.

The brick dealer in town gave me 3. Works fine.

I used bricks then bought a Woo2

So mostly you guys use for bricks setting on top of fire ring. Is that stable as in falling over w a hot grid of food or maybe breaking fire ring. Not real educated on fire brick but think there mostly 3" will that put grid to high close lid completly

I don't have an AR or WOO on my LBGE (that isn't to say I wouldn't get these products). I've been using this set-up for 3 yrs and it does everything I need it to do. Works perfect for 2 level direct, raised direct, 2 level raised indirect...etc.

Oh ok that looks good thanks a lot local stores like Walmart have the cheaper extra grates

I use three fire bricks wrapped in tin foil. The foil get's really greasy after 3 or 4 cooks. I re-wrap the bricks with fresh foil about every 4th or 5th cook.

I have a Woo2, but used firebricks before that. Like @GrillinSailor, I also foiled them.
