  • Worth It
I was a little skeptical that this would make such a huge difference. Ive had smoked/ grilled wings before but they always fell short of the classic deep fried wings. The Vortex came in yesterday just in time for my weekend cookout. I marinated some wings in a Greek marinade for a few hours and did bacon wrapped mushrooms on the shelf grate. I lit a chimney of briquettes, put them in the Vortex, and added a chunk of hickory on the middle grate. Temperature very high at first, 600F +, held 550-450F throughout the cook (took about 30 minutes for wings to hit 190-200 F and the mushrooms were done a bit sooner). I did not need to flip the wings during the cook. I wish I had a photo to share, but these wings were the most delicious looking and, more importantly, delicious tasting I have ever had in my life and I forgot to get a picture. Several guests voiced that these were "the best wings they had ever had" and I believe them because they were the best I've ever had, too. TL;DR Best wings I've ever had, even better than fried. Put a chunk of smoke wood over the middle grate for best results. ... show more

  • Weber Classic's best friend
Works as it was designed to do. I use it with the Weber grate that has the same diameter opening so it's awesome if your grub can fit on the grill at the same time. Works for wings, or any chicken parts. Great for grilling a reverse sear steak too. I never leave mine out in the elements, so I haven't a clue of how it will hold up if left out to be rained/snowed on. ... show more

  • Hot Hot Hot
I like using the vortex better than the baskets. The learning curve was the amount of charcoal you use. The first time, the grill was upwards of 500 degrees. Just from the vortex! You definitely use less charcoal for the same heat with the vortex. I like to sear so this is perfect for my Weber grill. It’s hot! ... show more

  • This Rocks
This bad boy is a jet engine in afterburner. Used it for the first time last night for some chicken wings and it worked perfectly. Got the medium for my 22” Weber and will now get a small for my large BGE.

  • Fabulous wings
Bought this to make wings on my Weber kettle. Best wings I ever made in the grill. Great for the upcoming football season.

  • I love it
Look, I didn’t cook with it yet, but I did use it to season my new cast iron grates. Man, this thing is a game changer and I can tel that before even cook with it. Now my reverse sear steaks will be like pros! Specially cause now I’ll be using that cast iron grate. I can’t wait to cook a batch of wings with it, as well some of my reverse seared picanha steaks. YUMY! Edit: already got some steaks with, and it’s amazing, one chimney of coals and you good to go, hot af! It creates a nice heat chamber while lid is closed for indirect cooking, and when you go for searing woooow. I wish I had this setup before, both cart iron grates and the vortex for my kettle. Don’t wait longer dude, grab em! ... show more
