Tommy, not sure if you know this but you can legally patent an improvement on someone else's product. Then you can contact the company and sell, or license it to them.  You could be making money!

Yeah, it's too late on those.  I am willing to bet they got the idea from your posts!  If you want to patent something, DON'T discuss or post about it until you have filed for a patent first.

Tommy you really should look into it. Pretty blatant they took your ideas in my opinion.

Not sure if you should be humbled or upset... Or both

I know I just never really thought the ideas would be used by them  :(

I did submit the pellet grill SRG to them 7 months ago and yesterday got a reply say it's not the type of cooker they are looking for right now

So keep your eyes open folks, CharBroil will have a pellet SRG soon  :D :D :D ??? ??? ??? ??? ???

Does anyone know if this will fit in the BEESR?
Granny:  "I don't own the house in town anymore do I?
Me:  "No ma'am."
Granny:  "I guess I should sell it."
Me:  "I guess so.  Let me know how that works out."
