LeadDog Posted September 8, 2006 Report Posted September 8, 2006 I just ordered a textured OTB from Dennis. I thought I would say hi as I have been reading almost everything that has been posted in the forum. This will be a big change for me as I have always cooked on open pits or metal BBQs. Looking forward to all of your help and tips after I get my KK.

ThreeDJ16 Posted September 8, 2006 Report Posted September 8, 2006 Cool! That sounds great! Welcome to the forum and we look forward to hearing from you and seeing your grilling pics! -=Jasen=- Damn, Dennis was quicker on the draw!

If you've cooked on open/metal pits, temperature and coal management is just absolutely insanely easy!
samantha Posted September 8, 2006 Report Posted September 8, 2006 Nice avatar Lead Dog.....Ditto Dennis' comment on the view.
Porkchop Posted September 8, 2006 Report Posted September 8, 2006 hey leaddog: i've done lots of cooking on steelies! you'll love ceramics if you enjoy sleeping while the butts sweat in the cooker. no babysitting the firebox. do you use lump, briquettes, or are you a "stick burner"?
LeadDog Posted September 8, 2006 Author Report Posted September 8, 2006 @samantha and DennisLink I used to lead bike tours in Alaska that is where I picked up my nickname. The Avatar was drawn by my favorite Alaskan artist for me. @ Porkchop I use lump because I make lump. The town I'm from is where the briquette was invented. Now for a BBQ picture. I know you want one of the KK when I get it but here is a picture of what I'm cooking on now. My friend was using it last night so I snapped a picture of it. http://djardine.unix-master.be/get_thum ... 640&nh=480
Porkchop Posted September 8, 2006 Report Posted September 8, 2006 nice homemade pit dude! did you do this yourself?
LeadDog Posted September 9, 2006 Author Report Posted September 9, 2006 @ Porkchop The pit was made "in house" by my dad about 30 years ago. He had my friend in the picture weld on the firebox and smoke stacks a couple of years ago. I can see what he was trying to do but it didn't work. The last time I had to do any welding was in the late 80s. I think I can still weld if I had to. @ Curly Scooter? Well anyway here is a picture of my bike while I'm on tour in Alaska. http://djardine.unix-master.be/get_thum ... 317&nh=480
Curly Posted September 10, 2006 Report Posted September 10, 2006 I get a white screen. Is that what it looks like in Alaska
LeadDog Posted September 10, 2006 Author Report Posted September 10, 2006 Yep that is what it looks like in Alaska.
Curly Posted September 10, 2006 Report Posted September 10, 2006 Ohhhh, that kinda bike Looks like a whole lotta fun though. I've never been to Alaska but (like everyone else in America) I have always wanted to. My brother goes hunting up there several times a year and has many great pics...and bear rugs...and antlers of all shapes and sizes...etc etc
