I have seen the Vortex advertised on
Thunderdome BBQ and I also saw a cook by Marty Owens
where he used it. It is said to have several uses, indirect, direct, both indirect and direct together
and infrared. So I decided to pick one up and see how I liked it. First cook with the Vortex will be
wings.
Half of the wings were seasoned with Lambert’s Sweet Rub O’Mine and the other half with Jallelujah
Bacon rub.
The Vortex was loaded with KBB with one chunk of cherry wood on top of the grates.
Wings were put on the grill.
Wings are done!
Plated with left over iron skillet potatoes, green beans and coleslaw.
Wings were great! Juicy, tender with almost crispy skin. I believe they would have been crispier if I
hadn’t of closed off the bottom vent as much as I did. One thing I really liked was I did not have to
flip the wings to get them finished. Overall a real tasty Saturday evening dinner.
