Indirect cooking is the method of choice for larger cuts of meat such as ribs, roasts, whole chickens, or delicate foods like some types of fish. However, arranging hot coals evenly around the outside of a grill can prove messy, difficult, and even dangerous. This pair of fuel holders solves the problem by holding charcoal or wood chunks firmly in place, allowing you to place a pan in the center of the grill to capture drippings and prevent flare-ups. Heat from the two holders rises, reflects off the inside of the grill, and cooks slowly and evenly from all sides, much like a convection oven but with the improved texture and flavor of barbecue. Made from aluminized steel for exceptional durability, these fuel holders fit 22-1/2-inch kettle-style grills, including Weber's One Touch and Master Touch series. --Mary Park

Great Product! June 19, 2008
For charcoal enthusiasts, this is a must-have. I use to set up my indirect grilling by using tongs to move the charcoal to one side of the grate, but always had problems since the mound would be uneven. With these, it's easy to set up indirect grilling and keep the zones perfectly placed. It's simple to tell where the indirect grilling ends and the direct begins. One thing I do go get both baskets lit is to start off with them pushed together in the center of the grate and set the chimney starter on top. Once the coals are burned down and hot, pour the coals so that they flow into each basket. Then use tongs to push the baskets to separate sides of the grill. Works much better than trying to light two individual baskets and waiting for them to burn down. Also, use two thermometers - one over the coals and another over your indirect grilling space. Typically, with a full basket, the area over the coals will get to about 600 degrees, but the indirect area stays at an awesome 350! I couldn't be happier with my new grilling accessory. Along with a chimney starter, these are my grilling 'must-haves.' Don't know why I ever grilled without them!

Works to well to not have June 13, 2008
I was a little skeptical as to what good these would be as opposed to just moving the charcoal to the sides, but try them once and you will see.
You can move your entire fire to where ever you need it in the grill at any time while your cooking.
Load em up and put em where you want them.
Slide one to each side for indirect cooking or move back together in the middle for direct cooking.
And you would still have the perimiter around the baskets if they are in the middle to keep stuff warm.
Handy little gadget!

super handy May 27, 2008
I use these primarily for smoking, but they also work well for when you're grilling for only a few people on your 22 1/2 Webber. Top notch.

A Nice Upgrade May 26, 2008
When I learned that the wire dividers were no longer available for the Weber 22-1/2" grill I was a bit miffed that I had to buy a more expensive product to do the same job--simply segregate the charcoal at the sides of the fuel area for indirect cooking. However, these new charcoal baskets do the job much better. They contain the charcoal and wood chips very well and are much more versatile. Using tongs, I can even move the hot coals to a different location for better heat distribution when necessary. This was a nice upgrade.

I like this little fuel basket set. It keeps the coals together when you want to create a two-zone fire. I have used this product about 6 times now. The only small con I find is that the lit coals near the ends don't hold their heat and are usually the first coals to die out. The coals in the center usually last (stay lit & hot)as they normally do. I use a Weber chimney to light my coals... and they burn bright red and then white hot before I dump them into these baskets. I would recommend these mostly to the grill-master who has it all. I find them worth the small cost I spent for them and as I said they work - just have to monitor your coals a little more than you may normally do. Great gift idea though.
