davew Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 For fun and interest as I have not seen a post to this How do you layout your coals, any method, why this way I come from the way back and was a case of getting a bag of coals and tip the coals on the bbq with firelighters already in, spread about a bit and light. I do things a lot better than that now, be interesting to know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokeyjoe Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 most of the time i set mine for indirect cooking, that does me for near enough everything and i have also got direct heat for searing with that set up, usually a full starter of heatbeads, maybe a bit of cherry if i want some smoke. for low and slow, its a simple snake, 2 x 2 with the beads and some wood chunks for the first hour or so. my smokeyjoe just gets ½ a stater of beads spread over the grate and that is mainly used for quickies like burgers/kebabs etc. i use heatbeads all of the time, i do like to use lump but cant seem to find any decent stuff locally, and i have tried various other coals like coco etc over the years, but i always end up just sticking with the heatbeads.
