Chimney is great for intense heat... Ive used a chimney full of coals for blackening tuna, cooking steaks ever since I saw Alton Brown do it a few years ago.... I was like duh.... why didn't I think of that
Peter Lugers says they grill at over 800F...I've read on food blogs they run the broilers hotter... so 923F is in the zone...
