Good Steel for Location Where Flames Will Roast it?

[Chips O'Toole]

Obviously it works.... The point of the "flame tamers", or whatever name they're given by any other grill maker, is to A, generate an air flow such as to equalize the heat over the whole grill surface to whatever degree (price point) they want to achieve. B, they're there to keep drippings off of the burners. You may or may not care about hot spots and cold spots, but you will wreck the burners without something over them.

What I really want is a something like a weed burner that shoots flames DOWN on a burger. A salamander for the home. I hate grey burgers, and I also hate well-done burgers.

Then you want a infrared burner. Haven't had beef in 40+ years, so wouldn't know about lame roasted burgers.

I didn't know they had come up with a way to do that with propane. Something to think about.

Stainless only last for a few months used daily in a crematory.

Well, it should last long enough to get rid of the neighbors.

Inconel is what you're after. It's specific use case is keeping it's shape and strength in high temp environments. It's an absolute bear to work, though.

Thanks. Based on the price of Inconel, I think I will have to go cheaper.

Frying a turkey indoors! Combining bad cuisine with poor safety practices! A twofer!

Sounds like 316 is the answer. Thanks.

I just fixed a burger with nothing between the grill and the flame, and it was pretty nice. I wonder if it's possible to do that all the time.

No , its not
