Are You Experienced?
@Jupiter Jim brought out some amazing swag for all the cooks (Drunk Hooligans) at NCBB2, and one of my great gifts was a CI platesetter. For those of you that have experience with this piece, what do you use it for or what is it not good for? Thank you in advance.

I looked at those today after my XL platesetter cracked for the 3rd time... I'm curious as well how people are using them.Milton, GA

A free CI platesetter AND some Knob Creek after a great weekend?!? This is bull$hit.
Staying tuned for some great cooks. I can only imagine high heat and seafood will work well on this contraption."Brought to you by bourbon, bacon, and a series of questionable life decisions."

I've already seasoned it and imagine finishing SV poke chops, SV chicken breasts and hot steaks. Look forward to the experienced opinions.Sandy Springs & Dawsonville Ga

I would start with steaks. Get that puppy HOT and wow!Salado TX & 30A FL: Egg Family: 3 Large and a very well used Mini, added a Mini Max when they came out (I'm good for now). Just given a Mini to add to the herd.

You can use it for indirect cooks. Shields your meat from direct radiant heat. Helps low&slow. Ideal for barbeque style cooking.
I would rather light a candle than curse your darkness.

Open the top, pour a few fingers, enjoy.

I'd like BGE to have a perfectly flat one for smash burgers, they are missing the trend there.
Seriously though, I hear they are hot enough only if they light a fart. Positioning is essential.+++++++++++++++++++++++++++Austin, Texas. I'm the guy holding a beer. -
@theyolksonyou was kind enough to give me one awhile back.
Perfect for reverse searing:

Quick seared steaks:
Kebobs (and if you're using wood skewers, the skewers won't burn):
And the opposite side has elevated ridges to keep pots and drip pans elevated:
Pretty handy gadget for the arsenal IMO. -
