I'm just learning how to use a DO and have heard about "Chimney tree's" for starting new coals. Would someone explain to me what one is and possibly show a photo?
A second question......I have a deep 12" cast iron with legs but also have a deep 10" aluminum without legs or a lid we got at a yard sale. We have used the 10" for years in the oven to cook roast and such using a regular pot lid.
The question is : Is the 10" used in the kitchen alone or can it be useds with coals in camp. If so, do you use the same amount of coals as with a cast iron, and can I use a round cast iron griddle that, I already have, for a lid. (It has a lip around it that would contain the coals and ashes.
