Just picked up this new to me mini max and im exited to get started, is this usafe?
I have no idea what I'm doing… would it be unsafe to grill/smoke like this? I'm worried about the heat and smoke raising to the ceiling. Maybe about 4 to 5 feet to the ceiling, and a decent amount of airflow

This is on the very edge of my carport eveything not pictured is open air
Yeah you’re fine. Just going to leave a black spot
It’s perfectly fine. Will leave some smoke stain over time
Sweet sassy molassy! You can do whatever you want with the egg, but I would certainly move it as far away from your e39 as possible. That’s a gravy train on biscuit wheels right there…
Part of the charm of grilling, I think, is being outdoors, not cooking under a roof. I’d move that to the grass and if you don’t have a level spot, make one. And isn’t your egg lid going to hit that metal support structure when you open it??
It will be fine. Enjoy!
You’ll be just fine. Highly doubtful that it’d even leave a mark on the ceiling. Mines lower than that and I have no discoloration. Oh, I also gave 8 Eggs under there.
One guy will grill inside his kitchen for 20 years and never have a problem. The other guy will start a fire with his egg 20 feet away from his stone covered home and burn it to the ground. On the scale of danger, this isn’t very high, but I would say it’s not safe. Cooking under your home’s eave is always introducing danger.
Please install some firring strips around that table. I’m nervous even looking at the picture.
No.
keep a hose nearby or a fire extinguisher. also, the legs of that table are close to the edge of the pavement. if it gets knocked, hot food and coal might spill all over your feet.
