Definition of Raised?
Doing a Spatchcock Chicken tonight on my XL. Is raised simply cooking at felt level?
The grate sits 3'' or so below the felt. With the plate setter in it comes up the the felt line.
I made my own 2nd tier with a Weber grate and 4 carriage bolts. Putting this on top of the BGE grate puts food into the dome.
So my question is, what IS raised?
For tonight I'm going to go direct at 400* and use my 2nd tier, no flip.
Enjoy the journey, right?

I consider raised as 3” above felt level on my XL. With my CGS stones and WOO, my normal cooking height is at felt level.
-
In the up direction.

Like when my wife walks around naked my donkey gets raised.
-
By definition, anything felt level or higher. Higher in the dome for spatchcock is best at 400.

Above the felt, the higher the better IMO

The woo on the medium puts the grid at felt level.

That’s where you want it. About 45’.

That’s what my wife said!

‘ is not degrees. And is a suboptimal angle for what you suggest. Your wife needs more time with you looks like.
Sandy Springs & Dawsonville Ga -
A forty five foot wiener does sound suboptimal.
