    @thetrim‌ i asked the same thing. I guess some lucky people got to take them to cook on for feedback. Who knows how you get on that list.

    I know where 4 went. Most importantly one went with me to display at the Jack Daniels cookoff this weekend in Lynchburg, TN. They were not sold as demos

    @Crimsongator‌ well...toss us a bone. What do you think of it?
    Again don't matter either way as I have one ordered and I bought the xxl sight unseen also.

    Where have you been? Kim, Susan and I have posted in different threads how great it is. It cooks like a small and comes up to temp like a mini. The firebox grate is the same as a large, so plenty of air flow. The dome is the same as the small so the capacity is the same.

    I have the woo, stone and drip pan for the small should I sell it with the small or will it fit in the mini-max.

    I don't have those accessories for my small so I can't give you an honest answer. Do you use those on top of the fire ring or with it out?

    It looks like @Susan_Egglaine is using the Woo on the Mini MAx in one of her cooks here.

    I use it on top of the fire ring.

  • Jim--congrats.  Keep us posted on how it works.  And I certainly assume you will drag it along for Eggtoberfest next year!  Folks would love to see the green man group cooking on that too.   Greg

  • My dealer told me yesterday evening I could preorder before Friday for 525 including the mini max nest and plate setter. I'm running it by SWMBO and hoping she will get me one for Xmas.
