Tip Top Temp

Welcome to the next step in charcoal and solid fuel grill temperature control.
When you need accurate temperature control over long periods, use the TipTopTemp. Ideal for “low and slow” BBQ cooking.
Use it to help control smokers as well.
TipTopTemp works by controlling the air flow to the fuel. Turn the knob to the desired temperature setting, light 4-6 charcoal briquettes completely and place them in the centre of the charcoal grate.
Pile 15 -20 charcoal briquettes or equivalent lump charcoal around and on top of the 4 -6 lit briquettes. Put the cooking rack in place and food on the cooking rack. Put the lid on and walk away.
The internal diameter of the Tip Top Temp is 127.5mm (5 inch)

Works great on kettles, Kamados (including steel kamados) and smokers.
Shown here using a plate hanger (not Included) to attach securely to a Kamado.
