Raised grid with cast iron grid on the Mini.
Thanks Tom, raised grid works great with cast iron grid. Still waiting on small pizza stones.
I need a little more seasoning on the cast iron.
First salmon on cast iron. Oiled well but still stuck a little.
Chicken breasts and a few thighs

Darian, nice job on the mini. I love the CI grates.
Beautiful pictures, as always. -
very nice looking bird pieces
I see you did the new gastet I need to do mine. -
Great lookin' chikn' man!
Cheers! -
Thanks for the pics on the mini. The food always looks great on the BGE. I should get my woo2 today for medium - will do some burgers tonight to test drive the woo2.
I'm in the process of lookng for a mini to go with my medium.
Any more comments on the woo2 for the mini? -
what is that gasket where did you get it ? thanks
-
Bill,
I have the mini and a new & improved mini woo2. It is great. Just get the 8.5" pizzas stones from Amazon for great indirect cooking and mini pizzas.... -
Thank you Anne,
The cast iron grates need a little more TLC before they will work. They were under 2' of salt water before I cut to fit the mini. I will have the CD in the mail for you in the morning from OKC.

I had to do the gasket. It fell off for the most part when I unpacked it from the factory box. The rest pulled off clean with a little tug.
Fun little grill.

Thank you.
I need to work on getting the beer in the photo...

Thank you.
The Mini is a fun little grill. The extra little space the Woo provides helps.
I would still think about the small egg over the mini unless you need a travel egg as your primary use. The small is so much easier to cook on.
DarianThank you,DarianGalveston Texas -
What did you use to cut em with,jig saw, band saw with metal cutting blade or a cut off wheel or???
Thanks,
Bordello -
Thanks, appreciate your candor.
Just rec'd my woo2! -
I used a cut off wheel on a small angle grinder to cut the cast iron grate.
I made one for my small as well a year or so ago.
I started doing it with a band saw and the first cut was like butter and then it just went dead and would not cut. The angle grinder did a great job.

The gasket is a Rutland gasket.
Not what BGE would want you to use
but I have them on a few of my eggs
and they work great.
You can do a forum search for Rutland and
find out all the details or contact me on the side.
