I would be open to offers. My first thought was $2500, but I don't know if that is a fair price.

Probably because there is so many better ones out there?


By the way, there is no such thing as over dirty smoke. Dirty smoke is dirty smoke, no matter how long you expose your meat to dirty smoke.

Probably because stickburners are all the hotness right now. If I hadn't gone for my LSG offset, I would have bought an Assassin.

Because Lone Star Grillz harnessed the power of utetoob "influencers" who appear to have actually influenced people.

That or MAK got a lot of attention with their group buy from their chief instigator er influencer.

So: Marketing, or really a lack thereof.

I have only been around here since 2013. Even in that short time, you notice ebbs and flows as some cookers get hot then warm then seem to drop off the radar. The assassin grills had their minute. I'm sure they are still fine grills- but if no one marketed or kept the hype up... they got lost among the next new thing.

I still love and use my 48 regularly. Very clean fire and smoke, lotsa room and versatile. It’s a fantastic cooker!

I was lucky to find a used one in California a few years and still paid $750. Well worth the money, even at grand!

You should have to pay extra for Dodger Blue!
