OK, these folks have stepped up their game. They've now secured a license to import pimento wood from Jamaica! Hallelujah! However, hang on for the sticker shock! It ain't as cheap as it used to be! But at least we can get it again! I had been hoarding my last few chunks of it for special cooks. They're also including the leaves in the order. These have been more available than the wood, but a nice add-on. Toss in some allspice berries in the mix and you're rockin' it, mon! -

It comes from shoveling out the kiln when removing the charcoal, never fear even if a chip were to happen it still could be easily remedied with a refactory cement.

What @C6Bill said. Finding pieces of kiln brick in charcoal bags is pretty common, regardless of brand.

Well, I went out this morning to get a picture, and I am glad you asked, because I realized that the area where I thought this piece had come from was not missing any material at all. Some scaling had made it look like there may be a chipped area, but I did a full body search this morning and couldn't find anywhere that this piece could have come from. Problem solved, I guess. Although I am still confused as to how this got into the basket.

Can you post a pic of where it came from? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
On Sunday I went to prep my 32BB and noticed that there was a rock chip in the charcoal basket. I figured that it must have been in my charcoal, but a closer inspection revealed that it had chipped off the inside of the kamado, right near where the rim of the charcoal basket sits. It is a pretty small chip, so I am not too worried about it, but I am curious to know if I should try to cement it back in place, or if there's anything I should be doing to prevent this in the future. The kamado is only about 2 years old, stays covered and the exterior is routinely cleaned. I often light charcoals with a MAP torch and then use a mini shop blower to get the fire burning. Thumb for size reference

I agree with the grout comment but if it were just the tiles it would be cosmetic and I would still be able to use it. The bigger issue is that the two layers of the structure separated and air was getting into the fire chamber making it impossible to regulate the temperature. That is why I used the hvac tape to seal the firebox from the outside. It actually worked well and held up well even through high temperature cooks. The final nail in the coffin is that it is starting to crumble. The bottom surface of the top vent never really gets wet but failed first because it is a stress point where the screw is embedded. Based on the cracks that opened up on the top edge of the body and the bottom edge of the lid my guess is when I break it up to haul it out it will break up pretty easily.
