    Ribs look good Ron. 

    I too almost bought that table on sale.  Thinking it would make a good meat grinding station.  Still thinking...

    I bought that same table.  I think there was something like a $30 instant rebate, normally 110.

    Cool table. What's the height? Need something for my KJ Jr, it stands a bit higher than the MM.
    @DMW

    Height from ground to surface, without using the casters is about thirty five inches.
    From ground to cooking surface on my MM, sitting in its cradle is about 45 inches.
    I am about 5'10", and the height seems to be perfect for me.
    OK, just went and did some measuring. From ground to cooking surface the  KJ Jr in the stand is 17". 17 + 35 = 52. I'm 5'6", that's not gonna work. If I were to remove the KJ Jr from the stand, it would be 12". 12 + 35 = 47. My XXL in nest is 36", which is about perfect for me. Unfortunately, this won't work for my use case.
    You can cut the non-caster end of the legs so that the height will be what you want/need.

    I used a similar table to mount my KBQ upon - had to cut a foot or so off the legs.

    Nice ribs!  I’ve had that table for about 6 years and other than the time I set a hot plate setter on it, it has held up well.  It’ll serve you well.
    Thanks and gfreat to know. It is working very well, actually.

    It would be excellent for a meat grinding station. Recommend it.

    I bought a similar one for me joe jr and I just cut off the top of the legs with a hack saw before assembling. I made the height if the grill the same as my bge in the nest. Works perfectly!

    Nice score on the table and looks like a homerun on the ribs.

    You can likely cut the top of the legs down to meet your height requirements. 
    Why not cut the bottom?

    GEEEZ Ron, I just returned from Costco ( I love Costco) .... On the way home I calculated approximately the money I have spent based on your "recommendations ""...now including the table for my beloved MM.... A table I did not really need!
    between, your Rockwood, thermometer , and assorted other "recommendations" ...
    i could have spent a month in Exotic locale. Please take up another hobby and save me some money!
    your ribs look incredible.
    Sarasota Fl. and  Lake Toxaway N.C. (and Novembers on the island of Kauai) (and April in France.... Don't hate on me for that)

    It is too late. You, too, have tasted the Kool-Aid.

    I believe it to be, however, I am in Clearwater this week, and will not be able to confirm, until I get back Friday. I will check.

    Nice thing about purchasing from Costco:
    The liberal return policy. If it is not 305....

    When retirement arrives, I may not have a home to live in, but, I will be able to cook.

    Mine will live outdoors as well, until I get the opportunity to construct an outdoor kitchen.
    Just noticed, I have the same two wheeler.

    Love the cooker.

    I just have a huge massive pot and a gas burner. I have no idea on the size of that thing, but it is used for our lowland boils.

    See if a magnet sticks, if not its a 3 series. 3 series is better than 4  for food prep.

    I’m not sure but I think they come ready for either leveling legs or wheels if you wish to be Mobil.

    Most of the time the leveling foot pops out. We add them to most equipment stands on the 1 5/8" stainless tubing or there is a caster with an expanding stem that can be used to go up in the tubing
