Getting a cooker off a pickup

Recommended Posts

Did you get any photos of the delivery?

I'm still waiting to order mine ... but will have some fun getting mine delivered and schlepped to my back porch....

Congrats on your purchase (and quick delivery!)

Sorry, no pictures yet. I had to move the cooker to the backyard by myself, so I didn't think of taking any pictures. It's actually pretty easy to move. The top comes off quite easily, and the two pieces by themselves are not too hard to move around. I didn't have to go up any stairs or anything though. I would've needed help for that.

Maybe I can get some pictures when my spare ribs are cooking tonight.

Did Dennis send you the one-size fits all belt with it? Just wondering cause mine didn't have one. :roll:

GSWHoops, did you move it by yourself??

I always figured I'd have to get a neighbour to help me??

Well heck, it rolls pretty dang easy on level ground...with 2 sheets of plywood one person could take it just about anywhere. It's the steps and hills where you're gonna want more people.

Well I'm waiting for the neigbhours in that case...

Got both steps and it's kinda uphill...(and not a lot of room around the back!)

What about leaving it on the truck

You can feed your friends from work at lunch.....maybe even make a few bucks. You would be all set for BBQ competitions once you get your skills down. I dunno....there are some interesting possibilities here

If the truck can back up to the 2 steps it may roll right off.

When I bgt my K I loaded it on a small pickup and backed right up to my porch (2 steps at the old house). My friend failed to show up (I never fed him any good cooking either) so I had to walk the crate off the truck, break it down and roll the K off the bottom of the crate in it's wheel chair by myself :lol:

It's doable alone if you can get kinda level with the back of the truck.

But, on the KK I had 6 steps and a helper who was very alergic to labor...but also smarter than me :? . So he grumbled and complained the entire time we took it off the motorcycle lift and flipped it right side up (just the bottom half mind you). Then we rolled it a couple hundred feet or so around back on 2 sheets of plywood while he cried. And about the time we got to the steps and he faux lifted his portion (which didn't move) he said, "I have an electric wench at home, I'll be back in 10 minutes". So, I screwed the plywood to the steps and an eye-bolt into one of the logs at the top of the steps while he went after the wench. It rolled up the steps pretty easy with the wench. :oops: I like smart people :roll:
