Thanks so much. I'll post mine tomorrow evening.

Tiny,

I am doing a short rib tomorrow night for the cubs game. What rub did you use and how long was your smoke?

That smoke ring is killer! I am sure they tasted as good as they looked. Thanks

Thanks guys. I got it to 230 and stuck it there which is good to know for the long smoke. My first cook maybe a large pork butt or two.

Doing the initial heat soak. My understanding is get the grill up to 230-260 for 3-5 hours then slowly move it up to 500 til coals burn out. Am I close on the initial burn?

Thanks Robert,

Truth be told I wanted the bronze myself but my wife wanted the pebble. Happy wife happy life. Honestly looks perfect in our backyard. .

Well folks I am flat knocked out! So beautiful I almost don't want to fire it up. Ha ha! After having to work out of a precarious crate position, I called a buddy to help me get it off the crate safely. As you can see I have pavers in my back yard and it rolled easily into place over them.

Wow! Thanks Dennis the process start to finish was a joy!! There will be much more to come. I did a time lapse of the uncrateing but the forum won't let me post it.....damn! Meanwhile a few more in the wild pics.

A little sun on those beautiful tiles

Lets see if this teaser works properly. I have one big problem. I wasn't here to take delivery of the grill and the driver put it in a precarious spot. Waiting on help to finish the moving it off the crate. Are there any instructions on how best to do the first warm up and check?

Not sure why the photo got rotated. Didn't show that in preview. Hmm!

My grill arrived last week. The problem was I wasn't home to meet it! An employee took delivery of it for me as I was away taking care of my aling father (he's doing great). I just got home this evening and the uncrateing will begin first thing in the morning. So weird to have my grill sitting in the crate for 9 days in my backyard, especially as the last 3 weeks of the wait were like I was a 5 year old a week out from Christmas morning.

I'll post Christmas pictures tomorrow

Thanks all. Good stuff

So easy and so good I am sure. I appreciate all these beautiful pics and how too's!!! Yum!!

That is the olive and gold pebble. I live downtown so I hope I can talk the delivery guy to wheel it around back if the crate will fit through the gate.

Here is my grill still on the factory floor in late July. Should be arriving this week. The waiting is the hardest part.....Que. Tom Petty.

Well said Mike! Mine is on the way and I am so excited to get this party started.

Mine is also on the current container waiting to clear customs. I have to do some business travel in the next week or two and I am afraid to miss my delivery. Couldn't imagine missing my delivery window and having it shipped back to LA. Thanks Dennis for your patience.
