Sad day.... XL for sale.

Options
If anyone is looking to add to their collection... I have an XL for sale. I hate to sell it, but it isn't getting much action anymore. Find myself not taking the time to use it like I should. I'm keeping my Small... FOREVER!  :)

Here is the link to the Craigslist add:

Thanks for looking!

    I'll never get the crowd that refuses to use the XL for small cooks. I've cooked as little as a steak and some veggies on mine. Once you shut down the airflow there is plenty of lump left for the next cook.

    Just my two cents. If you don't need the money, keep it. You never know when you will need space for a cook and I guarantee within a week or two of it being gone someone will need you to make something.

    You've got a bunch invested in it unless you seriously don't think you will get any use out of it at all

    If you would through in the cost of shipping,...
    Here in AZ an XL would sell quickly and for more than your price. I agree that if you don't need the money it is well worth the space. Good luck.

    Hey guys... thanks for all the comments and interest.

    @SMITTYtheSMOKER - Yes sir. I realize this probably isnt the place to spout the praises of a pellet smoker, but I love my Yoder. The biggest plus side of it, is that it is easy. So easy, the wife can turn it on and off. That isn't the case with my Eggs. I love smoking with lump... but sometimes, its nice to have some backup if I'm running late.  :)

    With all the accessories you are including, I'd say that's a fair price.

    If you decide you want to part out the AR and are willing to ship, send me a PM.

    Well i have to admit I agree. I would keep it. At least until the newness wears off the pellet smoker. I think you will kick yourself on this one

    I wouldn't ship it. $100 says something will crack. I've seem Large Domes packed....bubbles, popcorn, paper, strapping, etc. Didn't make it. 

    How old is the XL?

    i'm in ATL and curious.

    I have an XL. The only time in my life I made a decision worth a nickel was to buy the XL instead of the L.
    unless you are running out of room, keep it. 
    Best of luck either way.

    Ditto.  I have used the XL for as little as a SINGLE hot dog. (actually, I could have cooked it over the weber chimney - but didn't).  not sure about the pellet stuff as they need to use some binder to hold the pellets together. One reason I stick with lump charcoal and real wood chunks for doing my smoking.
