  • Do you want to grill directly over the fire on the kettle grill? in order to do so successfully you'll have to control the heat by raising the grate. Raising the grate allows you to cook chicken or ribs directly over the fire. Otherwise, a hot fire will result in burning the exterior of your meat and leaving the inside of it raw.
    If you don't have the budget for a santa maria grill attachment but you have a spare 2nd grate and some bricks, then you can do this mod and you can start cooking on an open pit. Most of these proteins are cooked INDIRECTLY...but DIRECT fire grilling allows for faster cooks and amazing flavor!
    In this video I will also demo this mod by cooking some delicious pork ribs, hot & fast. Let me show you.

    cool idea Sal.. in Texas we use beer cans... beer is the answer for everything!

      niiice. I am thinking 4 tall cans...drink beer...fill with water. they'll get higher than those bricks. if it doesn't work, at least you got a good buzz with those tall cans.

    This is why I love my WSM. Not only a great smoker, but works great as a grill with the extra height. Great tips for using kettle.

      Yesss I made some chicken wings like that and were super tasty. For Direct fire ribs on the wsm, I usually hang ‘em if it’s more than 2 ribs.
      I am Going to get out more wsm content out soon. Love that grill!

      Agreed. Even the little 14" WSM is great for "high direct" cooking.

      “Sal Maria grill” that’s a brilliant name….I think I need to start talking to you before I upload because I could have used that to come up with a title lol

    Cherry wood chunks FTW! Also, I’ve never thought about using fire bricks for grill grate elevation. Nice work, buddy! 🥃

    • @SJCOOKS
      @SJCOOKS  Před 3 měsíci

      It works really well!. You can get a little higher with a 3rd grate but it starts looking funny at that point lol

      Ribs were amazing. Wife really really like them cooked this way. The braise during wrap really punched in more flavor
