Oklahoma Joes Highland.
I wanted an Old Country pecos or brazeers, but tough to get out here in CA. At least with the covid bs.

This thing is relatively inexpensive for the sturdiness of it and with a few mods should run smooth.

I assembled it with 1000° Nomex between the firebox and the cooking chamber. Applied it to the cooking chamber lid base and the fire box lid as well.
I also used high temp, food grade RTV to assemble the fire box itself.

I purchased a baffle / tuning kit to help even out the Temps from side to side. I wont always need them, so I'll leave them removable.
I also have a charcoal box and lid clamps on order.
I want this to hold and maintain as much heat as possible so I'm not burning through coal. I want a clean draw of heat and light smoke.
I will more than likely run charcoal and wood chunks on this for the most part, unless I find a local provider that sells good logs.

This pick is from today. I'm in the process of seasoning it.

I still have my little Traeger. Its a 1st gen with only 3 adjustments for heat. Low, med, high.
It suited me well in my last apartment, where I couldn't use charcoal or even gas. Only electric grills were aloud.. All the association saw was that the pellet grill plugged in. They weren't aware that I was running wood pellets. Haha. I pumped a ton of meat through that little tin can.

Now that my girl and I have moved in together and have no restrictions, it was time for some coal and wood. Man I love it. Im not knocking pellet grills at all. You can pump out a great product with them. But to me, there is nothing more fun than playing with fire and drinking bourbon. Haha.

Now I get to go through the process of learning what this smoker wants and doesn't want. It will certainly be fun

If you can find some... give Fogo premium lump charcoal a try. It's my favorite. They have different sized chunks available too depending on how long the cook might take.

I didn't buy this... but my friend bought this for me as a present. These kind of hats are must haves here in FL when you're fishing.

Haha... very cute.

I'm guessing she is a pug?

I used to have a pug many years ago that I named after Jim Everett. I named him Blade.

You'll have to keep us updated in the Dog Thread... My Dog ROCKS is the thread title.

Love these little clowns. Of course we share naming our pups after our faves. :biggrin:

I love this thread and have not bought anything I felt was worthwhile sharing. Some pretty impressive hauls from Costco but who doesn't do that? :p

Off to the Dog thread!

GO RAMS!!!

The Costco hauls sound good to me. Hahaha. They always bring in new stuff... you might alert me so I can get down there and get something before it's gone.

I only mentioned the Dog Thread because I hope that you will share more of her as she grows. Lots of us other freaks have already done that. It's always great to get more dogs in there!

Love the idea of the Dog thread! Thanks for steering me there. I need to get Piper on there also. She is pretty much a rock star in the family. Fantastic at special teams play and depth at the slot receiver position. :biggrin:

Just saw the same Air Fryer I bought on Amazon a month ago at Costco last week at a great price. If you don't already have one, get one. The Sunday breakfast feast became that much better!

Going to kill me some weeds. Need to use it before my wife gets home. Because she will take control of it when she finally finds it.

One of my sons recently got himself one of these. Who knew there were so many different kinds of Venus Flytraps?

So I ordered myself 5 different species of these little monsters from a grower out in Oregon. They arrived last night. These are all just baby plants...

I remember when I studied horticulture in high school. It was fun taking care of plants. Not so much fun with the school work. And I managed to get a Diffenbachia out of it! Unfortunately, my parents didn't really take care of it, and I couldn't have it at my house, so it died soon after. I don't know where I'm going to find another Diffenbachia, and I want a cactus as well.
