Life is to short to lust my friend, order that bad dude and live the dream!

I actually really like that grill and believe it would do a great job at smoking a pork butts but just can't drop 1k on it.

I will show this post to my wife...Wish me luck and thanks for the kind words miller...

Saw he beautiful shot of the Costco frenched lamb upthread....made this recipe recently and the results were fantastic. Incredibly tender and flavorful. Highly recommended preparation on any grilling device.

Start up a GoFundMe and we can all pitch in to ease the pain...

Indiucky,

Your recent posts typify one of the reasons I love this country. You've worked hard during your life and if you want to buy the sleek PK grille, then that is your choice. You have lots of choices of what to buy with your money, but you (and your significant other) have the right to decide, not some bureaucrat. If it makes you happy, go for it!

Being tired of "OK" results in the past few years, my buddies and I coughed up the $$$ and took a private 10 hour smoking class from Jim Johnson this summer. Jim Johnson BBQ

I will tell you that my meat has never turned out better. So many little secrets that seem insignificant, but when added together they took my food to a new level this year. We smoked and grilled over 300 lbs of meat that day. I wish I could remember everything I learned, I am sure I forgot something here and there. I still don't have the smoker I want, but the standard Weber kettle is big enough for my family of 4. Keeping it at 225* has been tough, but the "snake" charcoal method has kept it close.

Ok, I have the Egg all set up for tomorrow morning. I figured it would be better to get it stoked up with the igniter in place before this snow hits. Tomorrow morning I will get up around 4, uncover the Egg, and plug in the ignitor and get it going. I have a 10 pound brisket going on for NYE, and I want to get it done ahead of time.

If I see something I want, I buy it. Same with the Mrs. We only dance once. My money, my choice. Her money, her choice.

Hope they turn out perfectly! I love cooking/smoking on my egg in this weather.
