That they do! So much versatility! I can bake Brazilian pao de queijo, and then crank up the airflow for some serious picanha searing. Or smoke a pork shoulder, or throw a pizza on. They are pretty damn awesome!
You talking 'bout that big green egg of yours?

I've had one on my wishlist for years.

Mine isn't an Egg, and was much less expensive! I got mine on sale, and my wife had a couple of Home Depot gift cards that totaled up to $100. I think I got out the door for around $400 on this grill:

I got mine back in 2006 (maybe?) and it's been great. For the price it's a great value, but the warranty isn't as strong as the Big Green Egg or Kamado Joe. I've had a couple minor warranty claims and they were all perfectly handled except for the last one where I had to pay to have the part shipped out to me. Not too bad but not too awesome.

Okay.


Didn't know this. This puts it closer to the "to do" list than the wishlist.

I ran to Bethlehem, PA to a National Museum of Industrial History ribbon cutting for their outdoor "Foundry Park ", and followed this "other red" Ranger on the way. When I left, a clone of my old Ranger was sidling up to Pepper, but I recall the kid who bought it, totaled it pretty quickl

Thank god I’m a country boy! Only way I’m driving into Boston is if I’m on a bender. They drive like crazy people in the city, you know, Massachusetts drivers!

aka Massholes? No offense, just what I heard friends from Mass call their crazy drivers:crazy: Daughter married and moved from PA to Concord, and she agrees!

Sounds like it does all the same things. Mine is about the same age. Just this year I replaced the hinge because the springs wouldn't hold up the lid. The new one is a much better design.
There is no better Turkey than one cooked on a ceramic grill. Smoked Low and slow or just roasted Mad Max style. :turkey::turkey:

Edit:

http://www.nakedwhiz.com/madmaxturkey.htm

It requires some effort but it will result in the best Turkey and gravy ever.

Don't be scared off by the site name.

Ya we got a reputation of being a Mad Max zone. If the idiots don’t get you the potholes will ?

I used to think that too. Having lived in MA for over 50 years and now living here it's far worse here! No one has a clue here what a blinker is and whatever the speed limit is, add 15 mph to that and you're still going to slow.

You can be going 85 on the I-17 and there will be someone right on your bumper and if they're in the far left lane and their exit comes up they'll shoot across 5 lanes to make it. If you're at a red light and it changes you have to wait because you can bet some is running the light in the other direction. I've never seen so many accidents on surface streets like out here. Saw a car the other day up on its drives door wedged into the median. Sill have no clue how it happened as there wasn't a side street near it or a driveway where someone could've pulled out in front of them. :facepalm:

I won't get into how rude the people are out here. I absolutely hate MA but when I hear people say Masshole I just laugh now because it's far worse out here.

How's your gas mileage when pulling your trailer?
