Not sure I'd want to cook on that edge like they show in the picture. Kind of reminds me of the solo stove.
Fire Pits - Solo Stove
I see that it has a lid for $80. maybe that's the ticket. You clean it but can also put a lid on it so that it covers the mess and still looks good
This all started with my wife loving a cheap firepit that rusted out. What put on the Breeo track was the need to replace a fire pit and being smokeless. We go camping, etc. so I liked the idea of having something portable. They, the store I bought it from didn't have the version with the "normal" ring, so I went with what was then called the Phoenix. We ended up liking this fire pit. I really like that I don't smell like I just came back from a fire.
Good question. It isn't truly 100% Smokeless. It's just not that strong billowing smoke that tends to follow you no matter where you sit around the fire pit. In my humble opinion, it won't replace a smoker. What I do like about it is you can offer food beyond Smores to guests while hanging around the fire pit.
I was picturing this, not as a replacement, but an adjunct to grilling. My vision was more like hot-rock or fondue like cooking. I see people sitting around a fire with small cuts of steak, chicken, shrimp, and veggies with various dipping sauces. People sit around, BS, and cook as a blended dinner/entertainment event.
I think your Idea could work with a pit such as this. You might have to do some custom rigging however.
BTW does the 24" really go through wood? That was one reason I went with the 19" version. The sales rep thought that it did.
It goes thru logs, but not as fast as I though it would. Looking forward to get the grill kit for it.
We've used it a few times. Since the weather is getting better, I am hoping that it will be used again soon. We (wife and I) are thinking Movie night with the neighbors. The times we did it worked fine. One that was funny was at the beginning of the covid lockdown. We used the rim to warm up takeout pizza. Nice un intended experience. Warm pizza with a crisp and chewy crust.
Well, how did it do in the colder weather? I’d been thinking these things can’t throw off much useful heat if their outer walls are cool enough to touch.
I believe they redid the lineup, cut some models and raised prices a couple of weeks back. I just bit the bullet and ordered the x19. Got the sear plate, figured I'd rather have it and not use it then want it later and not have it. Will probably ask for the grill grate as a bday gift or something.
A multi-piece raised surface cast iron overlay might be a good idea...traps the grease, puts a nice sear marks, and can be removed for easy cleaning.
I'll let you know when I do it. Funny how I came around haha. Really excited to get it. Totally redoing the back yard this month. Patio, fence, furniture, grass lighting and this replacing the $50 home depot pit.
