So the truck finally pulled up and brought my box.

Boy that sucker is heavy!
Unwrapped it in the garage since it is raining outside.

Tomorrow will be assembly day and Saturday will be the first cook.
One nice surprise was that the ceramic lid is more of a Crimson shade than the burnt orange of the longhorns.

I want to put it together once. I bought some larger wheels that come in today sometime. Once they get here I will start putting the thing together. If all goes well I will do the hour burn in tonight. (Tonight is Mexican restaurant night so I won't cook anything).
Tomorrow will be the first cook. I found some nice looking beef ribs at Publix yesterday so ribs, corn on the cob and some roasted potatoes with onions and peppers will all be cooked in the RecTec tomorrow. (Except latest reports indicate rain starting right around the time I would start cooking so need to see what that does.)

Meanwhile the box is opened and all the parts spread out over the garage.

Congratulations, sir.

The RecTec is a fine grill and I'm sure you will enjoy using it.
