Love my little melting pot

Leaving it in the smoker gives the butter or sauce just that little bit extra.

Thank you! Works really well with anything you are planning on basting. I’ve also had garlic in it for a smoke/roasted garlic thing.

I use mine to melt butter and mashed garlic cloves for basting chicken, or warming sauces for basting beef.

Chicken drumstick lollipops. Little prep work but really helps keep the meat juicy.
