After a couple of very high recomendations from people on this board I purchased one of (You need to Login or Register to view media files and links). I bought the Voyaguer which is around 8 oz. on my scale. Don Purcell was a pleasure to deal with.

We fry them lightly in a pan.

Wrap them in tin foil with some onions and spices of your choice and throw them in the coals. Easy clean up and tastes great.

A few years ago I had picked up my permit for a Bdub entry and was informed of a total fire ban in effect in the area I was heading to.  I had a flank steak marinating in the food pack, and was faced with trying to grill that on a Coleman suitcase.  I made a stop in an Ely antique store before going out and found a 6" x 8" cast iron heater grate that worked perfectly.

Probably a pound or two.  It was pretty thin, and had a decorative filagree pattern.  Sure heated up well and put a nice sear on the steak.  I've not put in back in the cook kit since, though.

Thanks for the tip. I liked the idea of those Voyagers, but didn't want to shell out the $. If you know any pipefitters, and a place to buy stainless tubing. I found a pc of 3/8" stainless tubing at work and had a friend fitter make me one. Looks great, came out to about 12 oz. I'll be trying it with some ribeyes Thursday nt in Q- can't wait. Grin Grin
