Doc: Well Mr. Smith, you're fit as a fiddle for an 80 year old. How do you do it? Smith: Squirrel hunting. Keeps a man young and healthy. I went hunting before I came here this morning. Doc: I think heredity has something to do with it. How old was your Dad when he died? Smith: Who said anything about my Dad being dead? He went squirrel hunting with me today. Doc: What?? He must be a hundred years old! Smith: 102. Loves to hunt. Doc: Well how old was his Dad when he passed away? Smith: Who said anything about my grandpappy being dead? Doc: That's impossible. He'd have to be close to 120. Smith: 121 to be exact. Doc: Don't tell me he went squirrel hunting with you and your Dad this morning. Smith: No, he didn't. He was getting himself married. Doc: You're kidding! Why would a 121 year old man want to get married? Smith: Who said anything about him wanting to get married?

Do you get a goat and a duck for ordering a 42+16 combo lol congrats, they look great !!!!!

New 42 delivered and placed. @tekobo - this (42+16) has been the target setup for 2+ years - just took a while to get here! Also, learned from building the ramp last time and had the crane do the heavy lifting today! Great to see the tweaks and new innovations @DennisLinkletter continues to roll into the design - steel band on the lid, D gasket, firebox divider, etc. Excited to break this in and get get cooking this weekend! cheers!

Bad news, dude. Here's your cargo ship. Looks like they're already using your KK to feed the crew!

Not nearly as bad as we teased Bosco about tracking his boat. I specially remember one pic of containers falling off the boat into the water - brutal!!

There were a couple of “moments” on this delivery. The lift gate on the delivery truck was half busted and I watched the whole crate tip while being lowered off the truck. And when the crane started the lift they were square side to side, but a little off center front to back- so it started to rotate to the back- had to call a stop and reset!

Those are ss drip pans. There is no double bottom for the 42, would be too big. These are singles.

Standard I guess, sausage, bacon, cream cheese, crushed pineapple, brown sugar. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Pig shots on my 19”, I was at a neighborhood cook off Sunday.. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I did a 24 or25 pounder on the 32 recently and it looked like a chicken on it lol But if you look at the grate pictures Dennis posted showing the size differences I have to agree with Tony, a 25 pound bird should fit easily

Awesome looking cooks! And as we've all learned in life - Sh!t Happens! My latest 'trick' that I've gotten off of YouTube vids for brisket & beef ribs is to slather the butcher paper with Wagyu Beef Tallow instead of spritzing. I cold smoked the tallow beforehand using the cold smoker and cherry wood pellets. Works for ribs also, but use high grade pork fat - Leaf Lard (what bakers use.) Again, cold smoked with cherry wood pellets. Just another tool in the old BBQ box!

And, BTW, here are a couple of recent cooks from later this summer: beef ribs and a pretty decent brisket. With the brisket, it is always something, even using the BBQ Guru: this time I accidently left one of KK's air vents slightly open, and while I was off at the gym, the temperature crept up to 300 or more by the time I got back. The briisket's temperature was rising a lot faster than I had anticipated. Oh well....The fix? I just wrapped it a little early and thoroughly spritzed it in the butcher paper wrap. It turned out very well, thank you.

Turned out perfect
