Anything worth doing, is worth doing to the point of wretched excess.

Yeah, I pointed out your sig line to my wife, last night. For years, I've teased her that her official motto should be, "Anything worth doing is worth over-doing" (and everyone that knows her well, agrees). I told her, Look, this guy's even over-doing your motto! :)

Since the embers are in the bottom basket, why don't you haul it out, before dropping the meat basket in? You'd still have all the radiant heat of the pipe and earth, and you wouldn't risk "cremated meat", if a little air gets in. I'm picturing a big swiveled lever-type thing, mounted on a stand, with a chain and hook. You hook it on the chains of the basket, lift it out, swivel to the side and set it down. I'm making it too complicated, aren't I? (I'm over-doing it!)
