My new Volcano grill and all of the attachments arrived yesterday.

Yes!

As the Fall season begins, the weather is cooler in the south; and it was a perfect day to test drive the new grill.

One of the things I really like about the Volcano Grill is that it is light-weight, comes with a nice carry case, and it can use three different sources to heat: wood (chips), charcoal, or propane. I chose to use wood as it smells nicer to me, and burns much more clean. The grill heated up very quickly, and I was ready to begin cooking.

Carmelized Onions & Kielbasa
Lightly oil a castiron pan
Large dice two white onions
Large cut a package of kielbasa sausage
Add salt and pepper to taste

You’ll need to stay close and continually stir the onions to avoid them charing up before carmelization.

Ain’t nothing like the real thing baby! Cooking outdoors is just so much more fun.

Another good ending. The dish was delicious, and I look forward to grilling with my Volcano Grill again soon.
