Default My new kamado!!!

Well,
It's not new BUT!!!
It was free!!!!
A friend in real-estate was cleaning up a property and it was left abandoned!!
She quickly thought of me. She comes and hangs with the wife while I Q outside.

Anyways it's the smaller version and it does look like it could use a little tlc but I think I can get her up and running.







More photos to follow!

It's great to see a neglected smoker adopted by someone who cares.

Silver finger, that's the exact one I have. Its a fantastic cooker and I'm very impressed by mine. If its not broken its a great score. Looks like it needs the wheels and bottom part.

Default My new kamado!!!

The inside is a bit busted up but I think I have all the parts to repair that. The outside has no cracks at all so it shows real promise!!!
I look foreword to getting her up and smokin again!!!!

I've always loved old stuff and I fell in love with my 50 year old kamado after I learned how to use it!! Having a little sister is real cool!!!
