Shut the front door, someone just grilled a steak by getting a grill red hot and cooking it!

I have to put a ton of charcoal in my Primos to get it over 650 or so. I do admit that if my pit was over 900 I would be scared to open it.

It did burn all the fine hairs of my knuckles and hand. The heat does hit you in the face. Extra long tongs are needed.

Yeah, must have not been delicious since it wasn't done with the Voude side wide technique.

How did you get your temp up over 900? That's game changing.

Did you burp it? When I get my egg really hot I crack it for a few seconds then open it fully. I've opened it fast before and ended up looking like Uncle Leo.

It's difficult unless your ambition is to grill something normally and you forget to put the cap on, in which case you'll get a gasket scorching 1000 degrees going with ease

Hell I haven't had a gasket on my BGE in the last five years. I replaced it a couple of time then just said the hell with it. Cooks the same.

Yes, I burped it.
I used a combination of Primos charcoal and Cowboy. Bottom vent was wide open and the daisy wheel was slide open.

Looks OK. A little too charred for my taste but I'm a /reverse sear/black iron skillet steak man.

can get better results from the $65 bar b que pit that was bought for me from Academy. 900 degrees isn't needed, at all....

Put it on a plate with some hot, melted butter. Eat it like a cave dwelling Neanderthal...

Tigerfoot, I don't put a ton of charcoal in my primo and can get to 650 easily. Every time. Make sure you're breathing ok and that the airways are clean
