At the heart of any BBQ is where the fire is held… We do it with thick heavy steel twin fire baskets with lots of holes so the fire is free breathing and can have lots of fire control when the air vents are open or closed or somewhere in between- to cook, smoke, keep warm or sear.
Why twin or double fire baskets ? over the years we’ve learnt fire baskets gives 2 zones which gives more control- and you might only need one half going as the thick heavy laser cut grills conduct the heat really well so you don’t even need to be on direct heat to sear…
Down at the bottom we’ve got two ash trays that collect the little bit of ash that drops through- This set up is for the standard F- Type and the Deepbase is quite similar but the ash trays and fire baskets can be loaded or unloaded from the front- where as the F Type you have to lift the grills out to refuel – but the general cooking is the same
