SSgt93 Posted September 8, 2019 Report Posted September 8, 2019 Another issue I am having is using the grate handles. It is very awkward for me when using them. I really like them. Especially for the giant middle main grate piece on the 42. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The steaks were a little on the bland side, with not much smoky taste. Is that a reflection of the coconut lump? Is it necessary to use other woods for flavoring when using this lump? It does burn very nice and gets hot very quickly but I do want more of a smoky taste. Yes, the cocochar has very little smoke flavor on its own. That makes things very nice and flexible for a lot of cooks that either don't require any real smokiness; and for cooks where you only want the flavor of the smoking wood that you want to use. For a big steak like these, I use a combo of post oak and mesquite.
