Wings Using Charcoal Baskets & STOK CI Grates On The Performer For The Celtics

Always a winner. They come out crispy like they were fried by cooking them indirect.

Fire up your charcoal in the charcoal baskets which concentrates the heat and flame in the center of the grill then place the lightly coated in peanut oil and rubbed wings along the perimeter for indirect high heat grilling.

Grill Accessory Review: Charcoal Companion Basting Brush

Normally I’m skeptical of BBQ accessories, like burger formers and jalapeno popper stands.  but sometimes there are tools that work.

When my Kate surprised me with the Charcoal Companion basting brush I was skeptical at first.  I was going to be smoking up some pork ribs that weekend when I’d put it to the test.

Normally the last 45 minutes or so on the smoker I like to spritz or baste my ribs with a mix of apple cider vinegar, BBQ sauce, water.  Often times in spray bottles the BBQ sauce clumps up and doesn’t come out evenly.

This was not the case with the Charcoal Companion basting brush.  I simple squeeze and just the right amount of liquid came out and the integrated silicon brush helps to spread it exactly where you want it on your ribs.

Clean up is a snap , just toss it in the dishwasher…
