It certainly is.  Thought provoking, and timely too!

Well made and as T says - thought provoking. I've sent it to several folks. Thanks for passing it on.

So what it says, is buy American made products so that we can create end to end jobs and infuse money in the local economies. Make sense to me.

So, it would be incumbent upon us to purchase products like Meadow Creek, Yoder, and Rec Tec. Oh, I forgot, Rec Tec is made in China. My bad.

Most of my rifles and hand guns are made in the USA: Savage, DPMS, Rock Island, Henry, Marlin, Remington, S&W and Colt. I can't wait to take them out and give them a test.

I go out of my way to buy items made in the US even if they are more expensive.

I do agree.  I love my webers and the mak.  but when looking at kamados only primo is made in usa.  and its expensive compared to a kamado joe (china).

It is thought provoking! My Blaz'n Grill Works Grid Iron is made in America, Beatrice Nebraska in fact!
That was one of my requirements when I was researching pellet grills.

I think my Cookshack Fast Eddy PG-500 was made in America.  Can anyone confirm that?  I don't see it prominently displayed on the Cookshack web site.

I'm hoping that it was since I have it checked Yes on the checklist I made when evaluating my purchasing decision short list.

Cookshack has been manufacturing Smokers for over 50 years in Ponca City, OK.

I believe the Fast Eddy line is also made there.
