Steve M Posted July 5, 2016 Report Posted July 5, 2016 I ordered a new 23" today - Terra Blue - with all the trimmings. I am really looking forward to cooking on this beauty. I currently have a pellet grill and a big weber gasser. The combo has been working ok but there are some things that they just can't do well. After having some food on a friend's BGE, I started looking into ceramic cookers and here I am. The hard part of course was picking out the color and I changed my mind a lot but I finally picked one I couldn't do without. I spent the weekend perusing the entire forum so if you have any questions, do a search or ask me lol. There is a great group here and I look forward to the journey. Steve 1
CeramicChef Posted July 5, 2016 Report Posted July 5, 2016 @Steve M - welcome to the KK Family and welcome to The Obsession! We're glad to see you here and we look forward to reading your posts and drooling over the pics of your cooks. Congrats on the new KK! Any idea on delivery?
Lannoos Posted July 5, 2016 Report Posted July 5, 2016 welcome to the fold brother Steve. Dennis' cookers are righteous indeed, and by far the closest thing a Kamado has to eternal life. You will not believe how well built these baby's are... Looking forward to the christening...! 1
Steve M Posted July 5, 2016 Author Report Posted July 5, 2016 Thanks CC, no word on delivery yet. I picked one off of the website so I hope it won't be too long. 1
MacKenzie Posted July 6, 2016 Report Posted July 6, 2016 Steve M, you made the right decision and get ready to move your food taste to the next level with this cooker. Looking forward to seeing pixs, (lots of them), of your delivery.

I am really blown away by the design and it looks like Dennis thought of everything. The quality comes through even in the photos. I'm dusting off the camera to get ready...

But after reading through the forum this weekend, I couldn't get enough. I'll try to oblige and do my part.
CeramicChef Posted July 6, 2016 Report Posted July 6, 2016 @Steve M - just wait until you touch that new 23" Ultimate! It feels like no other kamado. The cooking experience will be a true joy. The KK cooks like nothing you've ever experienced and the more you cook, the more you realize that the KK/Dennis actually anticipates what you want done, when you want it done. You soon discover that the KK cook is a very tacit experience.
MacKenzie Posted July 6, 2016 Report Posted July 6, 2016 Great Steve, I'm glad you understand, we never get tired of seeing delivery pixs.
bosco Posted July 6, 2016 Report Posted July 6, 2016 That is awesome! Congrats on the new cooker. What got you into the KK? I can't wait to see photos
dstr8 Posted July 6, 2016 Report Posted July 6, 2016 Congrats Steve M! Prepare to be spoiled by the incredibly versatile Komodo Kamado! And to be OK with your other grills going unused
Bruce Pearson Posted July 6, 2016 Report Posted July 6, 2016 Welcome to the family Steve. Wait to you see it in person the photos are great but in person you just can't believe. Looking forward to lots of pics.

I can't wait to see photos I ran across one while searching some youtube videos for bbq'ing. I was pretty intrigued and the more I learned about them, the more I knew I had to have one. I can't wait to take some photos; we should get along well. 1

And to be OK with your other grills going unused I prepared my family for the new arrival. the first comment was "I thought you loved your pellet grill". There will be a tweak or two of the heart strings. Hopefully the food will ease the pain. 1

Steve M Posted July 6, 2016 Author Report Posted July 6, 2016 That's a beauty! My decision came down to that one or the terra blue. I was trying to imagine what it would look like in it's new surroundings and went with the blue. I still think about it and will continue to do so until it arrives. 1
5698k Posted July 6, 2016 Report Posted July 6, 2016 KK's live up to the hype, and more. Congrats, you're gonna love it! Rob
