Demonstrating the Large BBQ Vortex in an Old Smokey Jumbo; with Flat Irons and Potato Wedges. Big Lew BBQ & Other Things I Want to Do! 2022-12-17 | I love my Old Smokey 22” Jumbo grill. It is not only a great value but it is a great grill for cooking chickens, burgers and other foods prone to flair ups. This is trade off however, because this makes it not a great steak cooker. Yet Old Smokey aficionados, such of myself have for decades found ways to modify it for cooking steaks. I too once had my methods. Yet two years ago I purchased a Large BBQ Vortex and with this accessory, I now longer need other modifications to sear steaks. Best of all it is not a permanent mod, just remove the Vortex when not using it.In this video I talk about why I like Old Smokey, why I like the Vortex and then show how I use it with Flat Iron Steaks and Potatoes. #vortex #oldsmokeyThank you for watching.
