Tyrus Posted July 30, 2020 Report Share Posted July 30, 2020 Oh yah! This particular bad boy of the Santa Maria persuasion is quality, high tech and a pleasure to cook on. Like the KK it was made with features that standout against other competitors and separate the distance between them. For instance, an effortless geared cranking mechanism attached to a SS wheel that moves the surface grates up and down with ease and stops where you leave it without moving....no brake, one hand, the other can hold your beer. Three 3/8 in removable 304 SS grates sitting on a secure rack that doesn't move side to side...sound familiar. An insulated fire box. An immense SS rotisserie with a capacity of 80 lbs. A designed system to pull out the fire box plate for cleaning using the rack lifting unit capable of lifting 800 lbs. Folding side tables on three sides and heavy duty support wheels. Like the KK the quality goes in before the name goes on. Did I say it was a pleasure to cook on? It is. I saw this grill which was just offered this spring to the market at an up scale BBQ store........instantly it drew me in like a moth to the light. It's Called the Hooray Grill and it's manufactured in Kansas. Some may be familiar with the Hooray ranch which offers duck and pheasant hunting' You tube has a few video's, one on the tech and the other tailgating at a KC Chiefs game and another with the owner and Brett Farve cooking. For me it's all about the cooking, showing our guests a good time and providing a comforting distraction........ain't that what it's all about. Pull up a high chair and see what's cookin. Hope I didn't ruffle any feathers, consider it another tool in the box, I for one always appreciate a good tool. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basher Posted July 30, 2020 Report Share Posted July 30, 2020 That looks great Tyrus.When you say it’s a pleasure to cook on, surely you are not referring to a pot of soup stirred with a wooden spoon?I’m looking forward to seeing more photos.Very exciting.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrus Posted July 30, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2020 You still up Basher? Don't the sun ever set in Au. No, no, no that's not soup but a delish Chilli I happen to be eating right now. Take care 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tekobo Posted July 30, 2020 Report Share Posted July 30, 2020 What a beauty. It looks really well engineered too. You are going to have fun with this new grill, congratulations. Allow me a little fun too. Is your wife still occupying the shelter you built for the KKs originally? No matter, it looks like your new shelter is very well positioned to keep you in touch with the guests while giving you the space to focus on grilling and drinking beer. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyrus Posted July 31, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2020 If you must know Tekebo the wife has squatters rights and I can't get in but I'm happy where I'm at. Yes I do like cooking on it Mac, it's very magnetic and people gather around it. Place a chimney of coals down and a few splits and it provides the atmosphere. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see the downside on KK cooking is that you build this beautiful fire, then shut the lid so no one can see it. It does make for delicious- and mysterious food to the unknowing observer.We are all drawn to water and fire.No doubt that new grill is complimentary in many frontsSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
