ifly61ce Posted March 1, 2011 Report Posted March 1, 2011 I finally ordered a KK after drooling on this site for a few months. I'll be getting the Cobalt Blue that is currently on the water. I got the 8" Rotiserie; removable right side table; decided to get the Gas burner to make it easy for my wife to light when I'm out of town; Leather Grill Gloves; 50# rotisserie motor; DigiQ DX BBQ Guru; Johnny boy cover; and a Thermapen. Did I miss any other accesories that I'll need? My wife wants to name the KK Leroy! I'm not real fond of that name, any suggestions that may sway her? She's a Cajun from south Louisiana and is real hard headed.
Syzygies Posted March 1, 2011 Report Posted March 1, 2011 Caldonia! Caldonia! What makes your big head so hard? Clearly, you have to name her Caldonia.

Paswesley Posted March 1, 2011 Report Posted March 1, 2011 Re: Waiting on my Cobalt Blue @Syzygies: Those hep cats were really jumping in that video. Is that a young Dorothy Dandridge sitting on the piano and soaking it all in? Also, can you phonetically indicate how to pronounce "Syzygies?" Or, is it not intended to be pronounced? Thanks

mguerra Posted March 2, 2011 Report Posted March 2, 2011 Re: Waiting on my Cobalt Blue Apogee, perigee, syzygy. Gee!
Syzygies Posted March 2, 2011 Report Posted March 2, 2011 Syzygy (Oxford English Dictionary) Syzygy (Oxford English Dictionary) 1873 C. W. Thomson Depths of Sea ix. 440 When the animal is dying it generally breaks off its arms at these syzygies. Who knew it was a barbecue term! Some of my work is described in that book. More significantly, the author, David Eisenbud, became a minister of the Universal Life Church, so that he could perform the wedding ceremony for Laurie and me on a hillside on Mt. Diablo, a few years back.

Not surprised by the quality because I had the good fortune to see one at Ziers prime meats. But when it is sitting on my deck it took a while before the smile on my face went away. What a beast, cant wait to fire her up.
johnnyboy Posted April 14, 2011 Report Posted April 14, 2011 Re: Waiting on my Cobalt Blue I still can't get over how much I like the cobalt blue with the SS trimings. Beautiful cooker!!

Dennis should put you on commission. I was very lucky to be so close to your store and be able to see one in person. I want to thank you again for the personal demo of the KK.
