I noticed our original instructions about using pinion wood in the chim-e-grill were not correct.
You can use pinion wood in the chim-e-grill, you just need to take out the food grate.
Attached please find the updated instruction sheet.

Thanks, and happy grilling!! Ted
Over Christmas, my brother decided to cook a turkey on his chim-e-grill.
It was a 15# bird.
All he did was inject it with orange juice and rub it down with olive oil and minced garlic. He said he cooked it for two hours and the temperature gauge stayed between 275-300 degrees.
He had to add charcoal one time and an extra pecan log, for smoke, one time.
He stuck in a meat thermometer at the end of the two hours and it read 165 degrees. He let the turkey sit for about 15 minutes and then cut it.
He said it was done, juicy, and tasted wonderful.
Just wanted to share that with all chim-e-grill owners. Sounds like a real good grilling tip!
Happy Grilling, Ted Gober
