Sharon Posted October 12, 2016 Report Share Posted October 12, 2016 Hello, or Heylo as Richard says! Waiting patiently, somewhat, for our new 22" Hi Cap to be delivered this week, just got notice yesterday (10/11/16) that it's on it's way! Coming from Carson, CA to the beautiful mountains of Prescott, AZ. Hoping it will be here before the weekend! Do you think she might? She's got some great accessories, and I am waiting anxiously for her to arrive. Even postponed my hubby's angiogram in Phoenix on Friday in anticipation of her arrival. Still haven't named her, hopefully her name will become apparent when we unpack her. We are not new to Kamado cooking, our best cooks have come from a Kamado in the past. We've had Richard Johnson's K7 and K3 Kamados for 17 years and they have served us well, one of the few I understand, with no problems whatsoever, but it's time for an upgrade. So we've treated ourselves to a wonderful 35th wedding anniversary gift. Anyone interested in picking up a Colbalt Blue or two tiled K3 or K7? K3 can been had in Prescott, AZ and K7 can be had in Phoenix, AZ. Looking forward to sharing pictures, cooks, and recipes with everyone in the near future!

Steve M Posted October 12, 2016 Report Share Posted October 12, 2016 Normally I would say hurry up and post pictures but I can wait until after the angiogram Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5698k Posted October 12, 2016 Report Share Posted October 12, 2016 It's just that Richard is a four letter word around here! I promise I won't tell Dennis. You're gonna love your KK, it's light years ahead of anything else out there! Pics are required when delivery happens.

Sharon Posted October 13, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2016 It's in Phoenix, being delivered tomorrow afternoon! Hubby won't be back until Saturday afternoon, . Oh well, anniversary isn't until the 23rd. I don't think that we will wait that long to uncrate her. We are going to try to roll her on plywood sheets, after emptying out all the stainless, has anyone ever tried that, if so, how did it go?

5698k Posted October 13, 2016 Report Share Posted October 13, 2016 That works beautifully. I've moved mine by myself that way. Have you gotten the skinny on the crate?Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharon Posted October 13, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2016 Received an email from KK with instructions on removing the crate and using the top as a ramp. Is that what you are referring to? Dreaming of our first cook, have a freezer full various meats and roasts. Better get defrosting something today. What to cook? Decisions, decisions, decisions, what a lovely quandry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5698k Posted October 13, 2016 Report Share Posted October 13, 2016 Yeah, that's the deal, I've seen folks dismantle the crate not knowing it'll just lift off. Sounds like you're ready!!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckreef Posted October 13, 2016 Report Share Posted October 13, 2016 With your previous kamado experience this should be a seamless transition. Can't wait to see your first cook. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
