|
|
I have been browsing the forum off and on for a year or so. But, I finally decided to join. Great place you have here. Seems to be a lot of nice, knowledgeable people.
Anyway, I have owned a discada for over ten years. I never knew what it was called. When I was a freshman in high school the ag/shop teacher had this tractor disc with handles he was about to throw away. I asked him about and he said it was to cook on. So, I took it.
It has three short legs on it and he said it was so you could set it on a bed of charcoal. So, I did and grilled a few burgers on it and it cooked well. It was a neat conversation piece, but I soon grew bored with it and hung it up in the shop.
A few months ago I was going to the drag races, so I decided to go get it out and use it as a grill inside my fire pit. Still worked pretty well.
A few days ago I stumbled across this section of the forum and decided to cook up some fajitas on it and share some pics with you guys. (As soon as I figure out how.)
Sorry for the long post. But, I am up smoking my first brisket. More info on that later..... |

OK, I think I figured it out.
Little bacon to season the disk.
A few onions.
Added the steak.
All mixed up.
Warming the tortillas.
Couple of close-ups.
I resized the photos before uploading. Hope they are correct. If not, I apologize. |

Thanks everyone. Already thinking about a larger one.
I think they are a really cool conversation piece. Not to mention very fun to cook on. Looking forward to trying a few recipes. |
