I'm new here, but that's because I'm the new owner of an old Imperial Kamado cooker :-)
Much of my spare time goes into cooking, it's my passion. But I've never made the move to the outside kitchen in the summer.

Learned about smoking and slow cooking in BGE's and found out my father in law had an old one sitting in his garage. Something like 15 years old, only used once or twice. Pretty decent condition.

It's the exact same one & size swamprb posted in his first post here but in better condition.
I need to replace the gasket and the draft door and a general refurbushment on the exterior (rusty cart & hinges). Best guess it's clay, any sure way to tell?

Only problem is I live in Europe (Belgium) and we have a very limited supply of BGE accessories and supplies. Especially stuff like Nomex gaskets, stainless draft doors, etc. are very hard to come by. Anyone have any tips?

Also, what accessories fit these old things? Like plate setters etc.

Thanks for your help guys!
