New Competition Trailer

Crimsongator

I thought I'd upload a pic of the trailer I had put together for our competition team. I bought the trailer 3 weeks ago and had my XL and Jambo offset mounted on it this week. I have a few more things I want to finish for storage but here she is!

Foghorn

That's beautiful.

The Cen-Tex Smoker

This makes centex very happy.

So is the egg supported in any way to keep from breaking??

The trailer had a Stumps platinum 4 on it was was built by Stump. The rest of the work was done locally

This is the back side. It has square tube welded to the floor. Eventually I am going with high temp silicon between the support and the egg. I am going to pull the egg this week and have the table painted glossy black.

Jeremiah

Cool. Where are you competing?

Crimsongator

Around North Alabama. This will be our 5th year (some years more full time than others)!

Wow that's a nice rig! Congrats.

You pulled out a Stump's and put in a Jambo? I don't know a lot about either one but I would like to learn more. Why the change if I may ask?

Crimsongator

I bought the trailer from a gentleman who took his Stumps off this trailer and put it on a porch trailer. No change for me, I like the egg and also the capacity of the offset for larger cooks.

Are you going to Riverfest in Decatur?

Crimsongator

Yes we will.

Crimsongator

This was Riverfest for us last year  :-)

Cool! I'll try to stop by and say hello after judging is over. That's a pretty sweet rig.

Sweet setup!!!

Many happy years towing that thing around spreading some good smoke and great food!

Looks like it would fit perfectly backed into and dropped in my driveway

Crimsongator

I am working to clear out room for it to be kept in the garage when not in use  :-)

That's a great-looking rig.  I wish many years and many miles of enjoyment.

The high temp silicon you mentioned, how will that be applied?  I'm looking for some temperature-reducing substance that I can put between an Egg and a wooden table.

Crimsongator

I plan to adhere it to the metal cross bracing below the egg. I am looking for a sheet of the material to cut and put in place.

@Crimsongator‌ I used Rutland high temp silicone to seal mine to the SS and it keeps it movement free and the product has held up even under pizza and searing temps.
That's a sweet looking setup with some unique touches. Complete with pimped out wheels :-). Very nice.

Crimsongator

I am not sure anything I've ever owned has been described as 'pimped out' but heck....thanks   :-)

Beautiful set up. How does the jambo cook? I have been trolling their site on and on for the past couple months. They make a beautiful smoker. I just never cooked on one to consider the investment. 

Wolfpack

That is bad ass

It does very well. I've owned it for about 2 yrs. it cooks very evenly and seems to settle in right at 275 easily. I want to tackle a whole hog on it before the year is out.

@Crimsongator would you mind updating us on your egg-in-trailer design? I'm starting to plan out mine and am trying to figure out how to incorporate the egg (and want to shamelessly copy your idea).

Crimsongator

Right now it is about 500 miles away and I can't take good pictures. Here are some I have, including one where it was recently stripped down and repainted

Jeremiah

So the egg is still holding together with no issues or breakage?
