Thats a great idea. Im gonna get me some!

Last night was Steak! With pizzas, beef topside and burgers to come before the weekend is out.

Thanks AdamG, I'm happy to have found such a down to earth BBQ forum. Luckily my wife really enjoys all the food I cook on it so she generally gets excited too when I show her the next toy. The lidl addition was an easy sell given the price and talk of camping.

After some internet research about exploding terracotta, I did some blue Peter style crafting. Given the great price of the kamado, I didn't want to eclipse the price with expensive accessories. After reading the post higher up about using sand. I had a dig around the house and found an appropriately sized cake tin. I used some old skewers to bend hooks so the tin hangs into the firebox and leaves a nice gap for airflow. I'll fill it with sand and probably wrap it in foil to keep it all together. Will report back after my next low and slow.

Hi Phil, You got any pics of what it looks like on the grill? Did you drill any holes? How does it sit in/ on the firebox? Keen to try this myself but not sure how it would need to sit Ralph

Hi all, Joining to improve my outdoor cooking skills. Got a kamado Joe classic II (shamefully most of the accessories too) and a mini Kamado from lidl (Landmann grill chef)
