OTB = ??? Haven't yet run across anything to clue me in on the acronym...help please, for the NooB... Just sausages today for this 4th, my last grilling prior to arrival of my 23" Terra Blue KK. I don't yet know where I will place the KK? It may be that when not in use I store it by the house where the old offset smoker sits to the left (not pictured) side of the house. We will see what my tolerance is for pushing the KK around from the house to the circle the is in essence the open side of my grill island area. When working it will either be directly opposite the Lynx or sit in the spot of the covered 15+yr. old Weber performer. The Weber and offset smoker will be gifted to someone or an organization that can put them to use. Edited July 5, 2016 by KevinD Correct typos 2

kennyrayandersen Posted July 10, 2016 Report Posted July 10, 2016 I would just like to say excellent job matching the house paint to the KK! That's not an easy task!

ingramrobert31 Posted April 7, 2018 Report Posted April 7, 2018 I thought the food cooked on a green egg was good until I cook on a kkSent from my E6810 using Tapatalk
SmokeShow Posted June 3, 2020 Report Posted June 3, 2020 Hi. I'm looking into buying one of your grills. I live in MN and the KK would be exposed to the harsh cold during winter. Will the KK's life span be limited by such conditions? I would keep it covered, of course but it would be otherwise exposed to the elements. Would it be prone to cracking or fractures when heated in the winter as it cools down? Thanks, Mike
Jon B. Posted June 3, 2020 Report Posted June 3, 2020 Hey Mike, As long as you keep the KK covered when not in use it would be fine. Water intrusion in a cold climate would be an issue with any grill/cooker (freeze/thaw damage). It terms of cracking or fractures from heating or cooling in cold temps there it is not a problem. I live in Upstate NY and use my KK's all winter. Have not had a problem. Actually the mass/heft of the KK compared to other ceramic cookers would protect it more from big/hot fires when it was cold. The H.D. firebox design of the KK's is also another good feature compared to other ceramic cookers. One of the best features of the KK is the quality of construction. Built like a tank. Keep it covered and you will be fine. Jon B. 1
tony b Posted June 3, 2020 Report Posted June 3, 2020 I'll second that! I live in Iowa and use my grill year 'round, too! Just get a nice sunbrella cover for it and keep it covered when you're not using it and all will be fine. 1

tony b Posted June 4, 2020 Report Posted June 4, 2020 I grew up in the Southern part of the USA as a kid and then moved to CA after college, before being transferred here (IA), so trust me on this one, the climate transition was not an easy one for me! I remember the first time it hit 80F below Zero wind chill (the static temperature was a mere -35F) - my 2nd winter here; I thought I was going to die!! But, after 38 years here, I've almost acclimated! 1
Wingman505 Posted June 4, 2020 Report Posted June 4, 2020 I spent 4 years in Minot, ND while in the military. I’ve seen -30 degrees ambient and -50 degrees with wind chill. It’s crazy.
