johnnyboy Posted June 20, 2008 Report Share Posted June 20, 2008 We're working together on a cover design for BGE. I've been trying to contact him for a few days now; no response. I'm getting a little concerned about him, and hope all is well. I've messaged on his forum, email, pm here, but no responses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheNakedWhiz Posted June 21, 2008 Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 We had a perfect day for it. It was less than 90 degrees, and sunny. We also got to go take a look inside of a real M1A1 tank. One of those would make a killer cooker if you can control the airflow, lol! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

primeats Posted June 22, 2008 Report Share Posted June 22, 2008 I think a low and slow burn time for depleted uranium is somewhere around 10,000 years. With the proper air flow that is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It makes for great insulation too (ie...shielding), but a weee bit heavy...hehe. -=Jasen=- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnyboy Posted June 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2008 Very awesome Whiz. Best reason ever! Thanks Can you tell us the details. Do you use your cooker? Few of them; entertainment by BGE, ...... Thanks, John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scouterpf Posted June 22, 2008 Report Share Posted June 22, 2008 If anyone thinks a KK is heavy, wait until they try to slide an M1 A1 around. All that metal probably doesn't have much insulating properties the way that a KK does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheNakedWhiz Posted June 22, 2008 Report Share Posted June 22, 2008 The Operation BBQ was held Friday at Camp Lejeune, NC for about 800 Marines and their families. This was done for the 2d Tank Bn. Del King, the organizer, is a former Marine who served first in the 2d Tank Bn before moving on to the 1st Tank Bn. We had a lot of different smokers. Pete Benac (Celtic Wolf) brought 5 Eggs, an XL, 3 larges and a small. Del brought a Klose smoker. Tarheel Smokers brought a monumental trailer with generator, sleeping quarters, full air conditioned kitchen an 2 Cookshack Fast Eddy pellet poopers. Dave Crawford, aka Doc, brought a Lang 84, and some folks from Raleigh brought a vertical smoker, but I didn't catch the type. I was the event photographer, tee hee. You'll find the photos at operationbbq.nakedwhiz.com when I get them posted. I hope to be done later tonight. As I recall, there was about 200 pounds of brisket and 250 pounds of pork butts. Also, Del stopped in a place in Texas to buy a few pounds of sausage to prepare for dinner. When the guy found out what was up, he gave Del 75 pounds of really great sausage. As this is pork country, they finished all the pork, but there was some brisket left over. Hopefully Del can make it back next year. Also, the CO was leaving and moving to Paris Island for his next assignment. He expressed interest in having Del come out there, too. It was a lot of fun!

Sanny Posted June 23, 2008 Report Share Posted June 23, 2008 Oh' date=' Sanny stop. You know I go all tingly all over when you call me Whizzy! [/quote'] Oh my! Who knew!! lol I liked the pictures. Even one of a very tired photogapher. Did someone give Gunny a taste of the Q? Seems he deserved a little, after all. Only one sad thing - they all look too young for me! That's when some of the shine rubbed off Army Navy Game, too. Not sayin I don't love watching that game, and the march on and all!! No no!! I do!! But I have to enjoy it for the pageantry and sport, rather than as, well.... you know... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conodo12 Posted June 23, 2008 Report Share Posted June 23, 2008 and some folks from Raleigh brought a vertical smoker, but I didn't catch the type I'd recognize that vertical smoker anywhere Whiz - it's a GF 223 from Stump's Smokers!
