You got that right

I've been eyeballing DIY plans to make a nice big one out in the yard lol. It'll be a tough sell to the family but I think if I make some kick-a$$ foods it can be sold lol

Went bigger than I planned with this one. It could hold 15-16 racks of ribs if I ever needed to feed a small army.

That looks so sexy

Very similar to my buddy's except for the Texas up on the exhaust - I love it

The attachment is the best I could do

40k... hott damn.. Im struggling just to get to 6k miles.. and my car's over 3 years old.... wtf?

Your car is older than mine

Chuck33079 · 08-29-2013, 09:28 AM

Yeah, I got tired of replacing a cheapo Brinkman or Weber every three years. This should last forever.

eastwest2300 · 08-29-2013, 09:30 AM

Hey Jar, so you'd know this.. just out of curiousity.. the Z has what a 19/20 gallon gas tank, from topped off to empy on the highway, how many miles do you get on a full tank?

Im guessing 400 right?

My buddy's has been in his family for two full generations. Seriously... like 50+ years. With a little bit of TLC every few years, it still cooks amazingly even

It's the first time I've ever had one that isn't a fight to maintain temp. Everything is taking thirty minutes less than it used to since there's no air leaks. Now I just need to get a good layer of seasoning built up inside for the real flavor.

eastwest2300 · 08-29-2013, 09:31 AM

People dont BBQ like that around here.. (the DC area)
