  1. I guess the term abrasive is strong, it won't scratch anything. It's just a coarse sponge. Robert
  2. I just responded in another thread, long story short, I use a two sided kitchen sponge, one with a more abrasive side for scrubbing. A magic eraser will work, if you stay ahead of the game, but my build up had gotten bad. Robert
  3. Mine got a noticeable buildup on the bottom of the vent cap. I tried all sorts of cleaners to no avail. Recently, I was looking at pics of shiny bronzes, with their shiny to vents, and I got determined. I got a magic eraser, and just started rubbing on one tile. Finally, it came clean! I repeated the process, tile to tile, until the eraser was gone. There were still dirty tiles, but I noticed in my sink, when I was rinsing the eraser, I had a two sided kitchen sponge, regular and a bit more abrasive. Well, I hit it with the abrasive side, and off comes the residue! I moved to little boy, and cleaned the whole top vent in the time it took to do four tiles with the eraser. I'm gonna try some of this mix, as I'm not gonna let this build up happen again, I love the look of shiny bronze!! Robert
  4. I named my bronzes Fat Man, and Little Boy. The fact that I have two, I wanted names that went together. You may have to cook a few times before the right names strike you, so, no hurry! Robert
  5. It looks great Wilbur. You have certainly proven Murphy is alive and well. Think ya might consider a controller now? It looks like, in this case anyway, had your temp stayed at 225° as planned, it would have been perfect. Regardless, your brisket looks great, and I can't believe your restraint in not at least cutting off a test corner! Robert

    Looks great Tony!! I'm glad it worked for you. The only thing I could possibly suggest is to get some cocochar, and be done with it. I tried a few lump charcoals, but after cocochar, the rest just doesn't compare. Robert
  7. I would have to go with the 23". It's capable of more than you describe, and more, yet is easy enough to handle for small cooks. The 32", would seem to be almost overkill for the average person, but those that have them, love them. The 21" has the hi cap design, which allows for filling the lid with pork butts and the like, but you give up width on the main grate, which would be an issue for me, as I like to cook briskets, and ribs, which need the width. I have a 19" also, and if you told me it was the only grill I could have, I'd be ok with that. After having both though, given a choice, definitely the 23". Robert
  8. Well 5750A is already shown as sold! You should be grilling in no time. I really believe you're going to be very pleased with your new grill. Even though your experience with the k7 was a good one, the kk is light years ahead in quality. Again, pics! Robert
  9. Congrats!! You're gonna love your cooker! Please post pics of your cooker, and cooks, and welcome to the forum! Robert

    You bought a 1000' roll of paper, and you're asking this question? Go with da paper. What type of brisket by the way? Robert
  11. That should work. The boosters are fairly reasonable, and the cyberq, or whichever wi fi device you choose, will keep you from having to walk to the grill just to check temps. Robert
  12. Poochie, where in your house, relative to your shop is your router? I guess I'm asking if you could possibly put a wi fi booster in you house closer to your shop. Putting a booster in your shop won't help because a booster is only as good as the signal it recieves. Robert
  13. I have the cyberq, I love it. I've heard good things about the stoker, but I've never seen one. There's a newer one out there, called a flame boss. All of these are wi fi capable, there are others that are not, but are very good controllers. Robert
  14. Once you get the shipping notice, that's when the days drag!!! Robert
  15. Paswesley, I have the same burner top, I believe. If it's a dual burner, 60,000 btu unit, that's it. I love it!! Robert
  16. I understand, but don't be putting anything sub par next to that beautiful bronze baby!! Robert
  17. Have you looked at the cabinets Dennis makes? Robert
  18. It takes a day or two to actually get rolling once the transaction is done. As already said, Dennis is for some reason a stickler about being paid, so if I had to guess, Friday ish of next week, don't hold me to that. Robert
  19. For both of mine, once they were actually on the road from CA, they took about five days, give or take. You could be grilling sooner than you think! Robert
  20. You won't have any problem with that, if the crate ramp doesn't work, the plywood will. I think the ramp will be perfect, I think that's very close to the height of the shipping pallet. Robert
  21. It'll roll fine on 1/2". I did mine on 3/8". They actually roll fairly easily, given their weight. Do you have any elevation issues? Or are you lucky enough to be flat? Robert
  22. Yeah, Dennis if funny that way, he actually wants to get paid for the things he makes. Who could imagine such a thing? Robert
