ThreeDJ16 Posted June 11, 2006 Report Posted June 11, 2006 Hey Dennis! I know, I know, what the hell does Jasen want now - he's only asked a zillion questions - hehe. Well, a couple more. Since the burner sit directly in the path of falling ashes going into the ash pit, is it a problem with the burner clogging up? Also, since the ash pit sits level with the draft door, those that cause issues with the burner? Does the ash pit has to be cleaned frequently due to being level with draft door? Thanks, -=Jasen=-
DennisLinkletter Posted June 18, 2006 Report Posted June 18, 2006 Sorry missed this... Yes the ashes do land on the burner.. In 30 seconds you can pull it out tap it on something solid and it empties/cleans it's self. It is very solid cast iron and the center ring falls right out to also loose it's ash. The area around the fire box is large and can hold lots of cooks. The largest difference is that it is soo easy to remove the ashes that it's not the PIA that makes you want to go until it's full. Put a shoe box or newspaper under the cooker, lift out the charcoal basket and gently sweep out hte ashes.. It's a effortless 2-3 minute job.. no struggling thru a little tiny door.
