Old Country Pecos is Home!!!

Well, it's finally here safe and sound! Here's my worry thread...

The truck did have a lift so the guys pulled it off the truck pretty easily. First thing I noticed was the bar around the smoke stack was bent upward a bit but after inspecting it, looks like it came out of the factory that way.

Once the lowered it off the truck they tried to get me to sign for it immediately. I said "NOPE!!!" And had them cut the shrink wrap off first to inspect it. All was good except for a few scrapes.

Moved it to its new home and started checking it out.

The fire box door was a little bent so I took a hammer to it to lightly put back into shape and the handles are a little bent. Nothing the shipping co did. You can see from the welds that it was all from the factory. So it had character! I'm cool with that.

This thing is a beast. Bigger than I thought and heavy duty. I'm going to burn it out today and prep for my first cook. I'm working this weekend so I might have to wait another week and a half...

Anyway, I'm glad it's home.

Oh Ya! If you don't plan on grilling in firebox then move that grate down for firegrate.
Get a piece of 14 ga- -11 ga about 16x28 and make a convection plate or cut it into 4" and 6" wide pieces for tuning plates.

Yes, congrats! I know the feeling, I just got an Old Country Over and Under smoker delivered a few weeks back! The Pecos will crank out some good Q!
