Damn! Wish I was in Austin. I would buy that in a heartbeat!
I would rather light a candle than curse your darkness.

Yowza! Somebody is going to luck out.

That sounds like a road trip for you Photo Egg. You're still under 1/3 of the original cost if you factor in gas to go and pick it up!"The pig is an amazing animal. You feed a pig an apple and it makes bacon. Let's see Michael Phelps do that" - Jim Gaffigan

What? You need help loading it?Photo Egg said:Ellijay GA with a Medium & MiniMax

The KBQ requires babysitting but can take much of the headache out of some of the bigger stick burners have. It's compact and doesn't require much time to heat thick steel like other pits. (It can also be negative in cold temps) Clean up is stupid easy. No worrying about rust when washing it down. Just some oven cleaner and water.sumoconnell said:Maybe maybe

Briskets and pulled pork aren't the most fun if doing low and slow. You also have options with turbo cooks. The fans also speeds things up and overall times with the KBQ.
I think we all forget that smokers do more than just brisket and pulled pork. It's also good for smaller cooks and shorter times. Most of have this image where we have to stay up all night and see the sunrise. The KBQ is great for smaller quick cooks. No it's not BGE fast but certainly possible to fire it up after work."The pig is an amazing animal. You feed a pig an apple and it makes bacon. Let's see Michael Phelps do that" - Jim Gaffigan

I was real interested and looked into buying one awhile back but don’t want the fan noise or sparks.WeberWho said:That sounds like a road trip for you Photo Egg. You're still under 1/3 of the original cost if you factor in gas to go and pick it up!Thank you,DarianGalveston Texas -

The window of opportunity is only open for so long. Just sayin' .Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. Life is too short for light/lite beer! Seems I'm livin in a transitional period. CHEETO (aka Agent Orange) makes Nixon look like a saint.

@Foghorn Good for you. I'm glad someone got it.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...

I'm going to count my lucky stars. I've seen a picture of HeavyG KBQ here on the forum. If you do a little digging it's out there. I was shocked to see a picture from him as well.Ozzie_Isaac said:
@Foghorn HeavyG was nothing but helpful with any and all questions I had with the KBQ. Top notch in my book!"The pig is an amazing animal. You feed a pig an apple and it makes bacon. Let's see Michael Phelps do that" - Jim Gaffigan

That's good to know @WeberWho. However, I've fiddled with - and mostly watched him fiddle with - @The Cen-Tex Smoker's KBQ on a couple of occasions. And since either he and/or @20stone are picking it up for me I know they will give it a good look before committing the money. I'm looking forward to playing with this. It will fit nicely in my collection.

Thank you... for putting me out of my misery. I've been wanting/not wanting this ever since it was posted. The agony was real when I saw that it was still available this morning.Foghorn said:I bit. Working out the pickup details.

Congrats to @Foghorn for the sweet score. That's definitely a bona fide bargain.That brings the BGE Forum KBQ owner count up to what now - about 5 of us?“Reality is that which, when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away.” ― Philip K. Diçk
