tacobelldog Posted July 5, 2019 Report Posted July 5, 2019 Found a unicorn...a used KK 23 in perfect condition. Had a super fun time taking it down 40+ stairs and transporting to my house. I've been practicing with ribs and chicken before I try a Brisket for the first big cook... 5

MacKenzie Posted July 5, 2019 Report Posted July 5, 2019 Looks lovely, and just wait until you taste the food. 1
Tyrus Posted July 5, 2019 Report Posted July 5, 2019 Nice find. 40 stairs?!!! Think you'll find the journey was worth the effort. Let's put on some fish tacos. 1
bgrant3406 Posted July 5, 2019 Report Posted July 5, 2019 Congrats! Nice find, not sure about hauling it down 40 stairs though another video opportunity missed! How did you manage it?
tony b Posted July 5, 2019 Report Posted July 5, 2019 Welcome to the Obsession! You're going to love your "find!" Would love to see pics of your cooks. 1
Bruce Pearson Posted July 5, 2019 Report Posted July 5, 2019 40 stairs good grief!! Welcome to the forum and happy grilling. Looking forward to your first cook
ckreef Posted July 5, 2019 Report Posted July 5, 2019 Looks right at home where it's sitting. Congratulations.
tacobelldog Posted July 5, 2019 Author Report Posted July 5, 2019 Thanks for all the welcoming notes. I was way too focused on moving it to even think about a video. We removed the top and got two movers and we did it all by hand. The interior stairs were very narrow and we tipped it over and set it down on the legs for each stair (side of the legs). Outside was wider and we used the vent openings to carry it down upright and stopped on each stair with the back legs. Fortunately, the three of us were all strong and kinda dumb. It wasn't really that bad... Strap artwork in the trailer... 2 1

Alohapiggy Posted July 5, 2019 Report Posted July 5, 2019 Just curious was this KK from San Francisco?? My brother lives there and he was eyeing a KK on Let it go. Oh sorry congratulations on the new KK.
tacobelldog Posted July 5, 2019 Author Report Posted July 5, 2019 Yep - this is the one from San Francisco 8
tony b Posted July 6, 2019 Report Posted July 6, 2019 Nicely done! Have you cooked on a kamado style grill before? 1

Nope...Just decided one day to dispose of my gas and traeger grills and try something else. I decided to go Kamado without much thought and actually ordered a cheap one. My wife found the used KK and now I have it and a cheap ceramic. The cheapo has a couple defects from the china factory, but the company that sold it to me is making things right. I may turn the cheapo into a Tandori Oven for fun. I am one of those folks that will change everything for fun...this is turning out to be fun... 1
tacobelldog Posted July 6, 2019 Author Report Posted July 6, 2019 I have a maintenance question...do I need to clean off the smoke/grease from the inner side of the top/chimney. Its not too dirty yet...just trying to figure out maintenance. I did not get a manual with it - Thanks!
