Less than half what that one costs. But, I like the aluminum!



Best explained in person. Looks like Jim has to come to the GTG now......
Looks to be the only way to learn about these inside jokes

They must make small changes like the bolts depending on the year?
Hi Jay.

They were. There was almost a 1/4" smoke ring around them.

I don't know, must be. I believe 6 bolts will be more than enough to hold it on. Gotta return the other 2 now.

Just a reminder, please remember the rails for Saturday.

I can't take all the credit. Beth was off today and was here to babysit the smoker.

Thanks Jay.

I may have to get a smoker.
Of course, the grill works too if I don't have too much to cook.
