Like Nike says "Just do it"!!!!!!!
You cannot find a better cooker on the market. The customer service is out of this world and the Quality is second to none.
I have 2 and couldn't be happier.
I have done 5 briskets ,4 pork butts, 3 pork loins and countless burgers steaks and pork chops. This is the best looking, tasting and hottest burning grill on the market.

I had one of the 1st Deluxe Classics. There were some metal works issues and seal problems but Dennis stuck to his word and sent me out another new and improved version. I decided to keep the 1st one so I bought it from Dennis. I use it for the quick hot steak cooks and the new one for the low and slow. It is funny that you mention brisket... I am 4 hours into a cook right now. I try and do one every chance I get. Everyone that eats it says it is the best they have ever had. I am cooking this one for a contractor and crew that are working on an investment property that I just bought. I figured some good Tejas BBQ will boost some moral as I already have 2 tennants waiting to move.
If you haven't yet you need to get one..............or two.

I love my Komodo Kamado. I had a few issues with my first as well and was well taken care of. I liked my first one well enough to buy it and keep both at the house. I use the first for hot cooks and the second for low and slow. Using both during a party works out perfect also. Happy cooking.
