I burnt off my gasket accidentally while "burning out" my egg after doing a bunch of greasy long low temp cooks. My neighbour distracted me with beer or two and when I got back to the egg it was glowing on the inside. And I mean glowing- conservatively, it was easily over 1200 degrees in the BGE. Usually, I light the egg with a heat-gun but have gone back to a chimney starter to save time when wanting a hot egg. Thanks for the stack idea! Will definitely incorporate this tool into my routine.

Just wondering if the high-temperature gasket can take sustained 1200 F. Also, how long will 1200 F last for a given amount of lump charcoal? With a Weber kettle, it takes at least 15 minutes to get up to searing temperature, but the temperatures drops immediately at the point.

If it's clean and you have good air flow you can keep it around 550. But most of the time 400-450 is about the best you can do. Only danger is when it's really hot 500+ and you close the stack to reduce flames then a few seconds later open the lid.

Get a open stainless steel fire grate on amazon and a looftlighter. Move all small used charcoal to bottom of egg. Light top side normal with looftlighter. Shut top and jam looflighter in air hole in bottom. It lights the small stuff and makes pushes hot air into egg. Just watch gauge climb quickly. No need for side burner or hot metal.
