Whoa everybody! I didn't intend for this to become a panic thread. Maybe I need to rephrase. I didn't set the MAK on fire. There was no fire down in the firepot lower chamber area. The only flames were from the beef fat that rendered out of the steaks on to the surface of the flame zone pan. Just like when you cook something on charcoal and fat drips down on to the charcoal and you have a flare up. Relax guys, you're not going to burn up your MAKs.
Bob, I am so sorry. I didn't intend to cause this sort of reaction. I'll be happy to delete the entire thread to avoid any further angst of MAK owners that may have ordered the retro fit pans.
