Poochie Posted August 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2015 Trucking company just called and said delivery most likely between 1 and 3. I told them that they can't come too early. I usually get up around 3am. She also said the dude would help me get it in the shop. That was good news but I still plan to put some bucks in his hand to make him more eager. I know I can cook on it during the curing process but I don't want to open and close it while it's doing his thing. This is a one time deal so I'll just dedicate 4-5 hours to it. Thanks for all the encouraging comments from everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poochie Posted August 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 One hour to go...being optimistic. The window is 1 to 3. We just got a good rain shower but that won't affect anything. Come on, dude. Bring it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poochie Posted August 19, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 I'll give the beginning and end tonight. Boring details later. The beginning: The end: I called Dennis a couple of times, but it really wasn't needed. I found what I was looking for while on the phone with him. The dude has the patience of a saint. Unloading the 18 wheeler took a while since it was done in the pouring rain. Anyway, I'll fill in the details later. I'm going to do the burn in tomorrow morning. Maybe even cook on it tomorrow night. I see that my shop floor needs cleaning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poochie Posted August 19, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 I blocked out the background because it was so cluttered with boxes, styrofoam and other junk. Burn in today. Yes, it's beautiful. I love it! My image hosting site (photobucket) is giving me fits. There has to be a better one out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CeramicChef Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 Poochie - your new KK could not be more stunning! Mega BIG time congrats to you. Take plenty of pics of the inside of your KK because it'll never look that pristine again. Save 'em. They're kinda like baby's first pics! Enjoy your burn in and reward yourself and your family with some nicely seared steaks at the end of the burn. Again, stunning KK. Simply beautiful.
