Burnt ends at the lake.... Sure

SkinnyV

@ the lake for the week, hauled the mini max again for second year. This damn thing is far from portable and gives me problems as an active late 30's work out guy.
but it's here and we will eat food for the week. 14 lb angus brisket cut in 2, today was the point, goal was burnt ends. 
Is it just me, but the daisy wheel being on really drops temps and restricts flow more than any other egg I have. Lots of fiddling around to get the temps dialed in.
shout out to 2015 rub exchange I just used today a full year later . yeti pictures purposely left out to fend off any haters.

Looks good. Are they really hard to move? I'm getting one for Christmas to take on camping trips with me.

Honestly .... It's not easy I feel it on my back. I'm 37 active and I'm focusing on using my legs etc to lift it. Now it's placed and good for 7 days but I still move it a tad overnight so it does not get stolen ... In case that's a risk.

1) Never apologize for liking expensive things that people refuse to pay for and say the knock off brand is better. You are on a forum where grills can cost over a grand not including accessories. 

I have a garage full full of great Yeti products and they have been worth every penny when I needed them. Can't tell much difference on the tumblers except all the tops suck and the inferior brands REALLY cannot handle the dishwasher. (I know it says not to, but after I lucked into a case of them my wife refuses to hand wash them)

As for the mini, I keep running the idea to buy one. My buddy and I have been thinking about designing a tailgating rig that is basically a cradle with a trailer hitch and an exoskeleton to keep from braking them and allows you to lock a cage around it. It would allow you to tailgate at the game, camp, whatever...then lock the cage around it and lock the hitch and not worry about 1) it getting stolen and 2) not being close enough to your car to be a fire hazard.
