What BBQ Gifts are You Getting/Giving?

So far I have, in the bag, between my recent birthday and Christmas gifts trickling in two pepper popper stands, a wireless remote reading thermometer (grate and meat temps), and a pair of bear claws (how'd I EVER pull pork without THOSE!). 

For gifts I'm giving out BBQ, mainly big chunks of brisket or a pork roast. This has become 'tradition' here and as I've said a few times before has written me into several wills.

And with all the fam around I've stocked up on just about everything and will keep a platter full of BBQ from now until New Year's day.

    I told my mom I wanted the Amazing Smoker, keeping my fingers crossed.

    I mentioned an AR and a Sous Vide. Who knows though. I tend to be quite annoying to my wife with all the talk about "that dumb green thing".  :D

    I believe I am getting the AR R&B combo, not sure if my wife caught the hint about the thermapen or not...we shall see. If not I guess I will just have to buy it for myself

    I am cooking a brisket for our employees today, I put it on at 11 last night, internal temperature of 160º this morning at 6:30 still under 190º now but starting to feel nice and tender, hoping to have it off the egg at 11:30 and serving at 12:30.  It looks and smells fantastic just a little slower than I had hoped, last 9 pounder was done in under 11 hours this one looks to be going 12 1/2 +.  Good thing I am patient person.

    LOL! I'm sorry, but I just had to comment. When I first got mine my wife was soon the same way. I would spend hours on here talking about cooks, equipment and sharing photos. She was annoyed and suspicous. Soon however she became enamored and hungry. Now she asks me when I am going to cook something on the egg. It will get better!

    It's a wireless remote thermometer for me, I hope! Have been surviving without it since I purchased the LBGE in July. Can't wait to unwrap it so I can put it to use to cook the Christmas dinner pork loin.

    Got the Maverick 733 and ES432 thermometer (read many reviews stating this was just as solid as Thermapen) so far.

    I've been lucky this year. The wife let me have my gifts early. I received the high-que charcoal grate, and a new nomex gasket. A nest handler for my LBGE. 2 bamboo cutting boards to replace the slats on my aging eggmates, a smokeware chimney cap, a new cover, the ventilated embroidered one which is much larger and nicer than the older cover, a maverick 733 with the water resistant made in the USA probes, and a new pair of poultry shears. I must have been pretty good this year.

    Reasonably sure I'm getting a looftlighter. Not sure what it says about me that the only thing I really wanted for Christmas this year was something designed to start fires very efficiently.
