Title: Forgive me KIngsford, for I have sinned.....
Post by: smokeasaurus on February 11, 2012, 04:22:55 PM
Well, Mama said to always save for a rainy day and we have had some rainy days here since the Holidays with not much saving  :o so...............had a little Q sale at Smokes place the last couple of weeks:

had to part with my two electric smokers and my Quality Grill... :'(  but it had to be done...the misses has qualified for unemployment and we will carry on....don't worry...Smoochy was not for sale 8)

I decided to keep my off-set and had a deep charcoal pan made for the smoking chamber so I can grill in there without any fears of a grease fire and I can do my lo and slo the old-fashioned (hard) way. I will switch to power smoking for my briskets and butts so I aint up all night.

I always felt a tad bit guilty when I used a heat source other than Kingsford  :-[

So...look for my cooking adventures from now on in the stick burning section...got something goood for ya today   ::)

Really sorry to hear of your run of bad luck smoke - but, hopefully things will be looking up real soon. Hang in there buddy. Your input is valued around here.
Keep smokin'!

Not the QUALITY GRILL :'(
The 36in X 24 in is the one I lust after :o

The CB940X is a heavier made pit than the Quality Grills. The one I had was the 24 X 48 and it was 162 # and the CB940X which has a 30" long cooking surface weighs in at 188#!!

Smoke our homemade cooker at hunt camp has a 36X 24 cooking surface & I love the size for indirect smoking.
