Alphonse Posted July 25, 2019 Report Posted July 25, 2019 Joining in as an enthusiast. I own many grills - kamados (SOBs), wood burners, charcoal burners, and yes, one gas grill. I am beginning my studies on KK and trying to decide which one I might spring for. I have a decent spot for one and now on to learning more about it so I could "buy once". Thanks in advance for the help! Alan Gulf coast of Alabama (Lower Alabama) 3
Pequod Posted July 25, 2019 Report Posted July 25, 2019 Welcome, Alan! You'll soon receive scads of advice. Let me help you cut to the chase on which things are fact and which are opinion: Facts: Call Dennis and discuss your needs. You'll get sage advice and no pressure. All KK's are built to the same high standard, so you can be assured you're getting the highest quality cooker regardless of size. In spite of #2, irrefutable anecdotal evidence says that pebbles cook better than tiles. Opinions: Which accessories to get. Which brand of lump to use. The exact nature of the reason that pebbles are superior. Strap yourself in and enjoy the ride! 3

Well...you gotta admit...they at least LOOK better. And “look” rhymes with “cook” so it’s pretty much the same thing. 1
Basher Posted July 28, 2019 Report Posted July 28, 2019 haha pequod. That's scientific and makes a lot of sense. 1
TomRaz Posted August 6, 2019 Report Posted August 6, 2019 Okay the square tiles look pretty good also ! Besides the inside of the KK does not know the difference Also consider maybe someone is selling a used KK and can tell you the age and the story of how its been kept I bought my 23 KK from Tucker and he took great care of it Welcome to the madness !
