That's sweet lookin'! Instead of the Big Orange Egg, just call it the Great Pumpkin.

You got it, as soon as your check clears it's on the truck.

Beautiful!

deez20 · 11-14-2010, 01:02 AM

That looks phenomenal

R2Egg2Q · 11-14-2010, 03:02 AM

Great job! Good luck on the test burn.

Keeping my fingers crossed. Hope she launches successfully!

You're good Brother!
Wish I had skills like that!
BuPhul job!

Midnight Smoke · 11-14-2010, 11:29 AM

Thanks everybody, I am pretty proud of how it came out. It must have come from the Orient as you need to be 4' 6" tall to cook on it as it is.

bigabyte · 11-15-2010, 01:22 PM

Whoa! What a transformation!

That's funny! It's from Japan that's for sure, it looks just like mines as you posted in my "Show me your kamado" thread. I got some Japanese stampings on mines, it's probably the guy's signature who made them.

Hey Midnight,
here are some photos of an unused kamado of what yours might have looked like before, i found on CL for sale right now.

I just read through this and have to say "well done man." Only one question remains, "did you fire it up and how did it handle?" Hopefully well.

Thanks! I have not used it much but did do some wings right after I finished the restore. Some of the best I have ever done. Reminds me I need to get it fired up more often.

Wings
