FAQ

Before you fire the pit

What recipes should a beginner start with?

Smoked queso, grilled chicken thighs, and reverse-seared ribeye are the fastest confidence-builders because they reward decent fire control without punishing small mistakes.

Do these recipe pages work without Supabase configured?

Yes. The site falls back to the in-repo launch library so the public pages stay populated before the database is connected.
