Promise, last click bate topic for the year!

This is the largest clinker for the year. Not to bad (have had them 4 times bigger). I expect some combination of coal and lower burn rate this year.

It almost looks like coral. I found 1 the size of my hand in a warm morning knockoff I was looking at. It had nails and other metal bits mixed in it. I think the guy burned wood shop scraps to get the coal started. :roll:

I had quite a few in the Hitzer when I just cleaned it out monday night. Burning Blaschak coal, guess I was burning it too hot!
