It gets better right?

It's going to stop, right?  Within the month I've purchased pswoo and woo (l/mm), KAB (l/mm), rutland gasket from rrp (finally installed yesterday), smokeware cap, and BBQ guru wifi (2nd time around).  Good thing this stuff arrives when I can get to it first.

    Nah. I just grab a bag (RO/RW) on the way home. Loaded up on the Home Depot sale last month.

    Aaah, but just look at the happiness it brings you and your dinner guests. Think of it as an investment. Might I suggest the Joetisserie? =)

    Not really. Next thing will be coolers. Then sous vide.  Then a trailer reverse flow or vertical.  Then a kitchen remodel or new house with bigger kitchen.

    Neither does anyone who attended.  But they are all glad you did it.

    You'll become famous among friends for your cooking and be buried in a pauper's grave - sorry to break the news to you...
    Coleman, Texas
    Large BGE & Mini Max for the wok. A few old camp Dutch ovens and a wood fired oven. LSG 24” cabinet offset smoker. There are a few paella pans and a Patagonia cross in the barn. A curing chamber for bacterial transformation of meats...
    "Bourbon slushies. Sure you can cook on the BGE without them, but why would you?"

    You will become good friends with butcher(s), and ask them odd cuts of meat.

    It's like you have been living in my house. We have followed almost exactly that timeline/progression. Currently contemplating kitchen remodel vs. new house.

    And @HondaHawk it depends on what you mean by "better" - to me "better" means I get more toys as time rolls on. Beware of drunk Amazon purchases, which this forum will make you do.

    Since you'll be outside all the time now, why not some external wifi Bose speakers and hang a tv out there too.  And once you expand your cooking skills you'll probably need another egg to cook up some appetizers while you are waiting on the low and slow cook!  With that in mind an outside frig would be nice for easy access to your favorite beverage and don't forget that bug zapper.  Oh and get off those feet with some new patio furniture...

    I've been down the drunk Amazon road many of times.  

    I've got the anova (thanks to this site) and the RTIC 65/20 in tan (thanks to this site). 

    The rewards are great with great food, my spending this month is ridiculous though. Oh well. I'm set for awhile...unless more joetisserie threads are made and I fight myself on the reasons why and why not to purchase it (I do want it).
