Works great for low n slow. Did some ribs right when I got it, and it was consistent heat for 5 hours (could've gone longer) with lump.

I've used the low and slow setup to smoke 3 pork butts (two at one time) and also used the vortex several times for chicken wings. This thing really works well for both types of cooks. For low and slow, it burned for 9 hours at about 275 before running out, and that was with two butts on the grill.

I ordered the heat controller on Thursday 6-26, paid for next day FedEx. It's now Saturday 6-28 5:05 pm and the tracking says it's still in Indianapolis. I wanted to use product this weekend, hence the next day delivery. I'll be returning the product.

I really like the charcoal heat controller. It allows me to use to entire grill surface to barbecue/smoke, instead of having the charcoal and wood onside and the meat on the opposite side. The fat from the meat drips the deflector part and not on the charcoals so there are no flare-ups. But that creates a mess on the deflector. Wrapping the deflector with aluminum foil helps some.

Like to be able to concentrate the heat on the grill when I have a small meat selection. Works great. Did a nice job on the steaks.

Wish I had this for years. This is the best way to keep a strong fire with constant temperature. Love it.

Tried this out one night and worked great grilling short ribs. Takes the guess work out of most of the grilling. Heat was steady using the fuse method with the coals. Excellent product. Weber never disappoints.

I am thrilled with this accessory. Multiple ways to step up my grilling/smoking game on my charcoal grill. Heat lasts hours longer for smoking and heat is distributed better for indirect cooking. Worth the price.

When will my item arrive?
Once shipped, items usually arrive within 3-5 business days. While UPS and FedEx are our carriers for smaller items, be aware that larger items and orders are shipped via freight. The freight process is a bit more complicated than what we've all come to expect for small parcels, so it's important that you're prepared and understand what's required of you well before delivery day.
- Most freight products ship on a pallet
- Some carriers will call to schedule a delivery window, while others will deliver the shipment to a reasonably accessible location closest to your residence (their goal is to deliver as near a garage door as they can).
- We'll specify which process you can expect in your shipping confirmation email.
For carriers that schedule delivery appointments:
Carriers that schedule delivery appointments require you to be home for delivery and provide your signature. The delivery is made with a semi-truck with lift gate services, and the shipment is dropped off at the curb. If you authorize the shipping company to leave the delivery without a signature, BBQGuys can't be held responsible for damages that occur during delivery. As complicated as this process may seem, we've only scratched the surface here — please review our detailed guide to freight delivery so there are no surprises when a freight shipment heads your way.
For carriers that deliver without an appointment:
Carriers that deliver without an appointment don't require you to be home or set up a delivery window, and you aren't required to sign for the pallet(s). Instead of scheduling an appointment, arranging your schedule to be home for the delivery, and signing to confirm receipt, you can sit back and let your items come to you. If you're home at the time of the drop-off, you can request the driver place your delivery in the garage; if you're out of the house, the driver will leave it near the garage or doorstep.
