Very nice pit! Paul and Sharon are really great people. That's quite a haul!

Now we need a lot more pics of the pit and cooks! :thumb:

Now the precedent is done for Paul to take every pit pickup visitors to dinner ...

On another note: Since Paul's doing dinners, Chris Goodlander, what are you going to do for me? :grin:

We went to dinner. I do believe that Paul would go to dinner with anyone that picks up a cooker. I think Paul really enjoys talking with everyone. I'm pretty sure I'm not special in that category.

I am doing an all weekend cook. I'm breaking this thing in right. It will be live throughout the entire weekend.

Congrats on the new cooker and welcome to the family! Paul and Sharon really are about as nice and friendly as they come! You will love cooking on your new Shirley! They truly are the best!

Congrats! I have been emailing Tyler the last few days about my build...just got to get to a point and pull the trigger. I love my ceramic cooker, but I need to explore new opportunities and I need more capacity!

Congratulations on your new pit and new freinds.

Congrats on the new Shirley!! I've been looking forward to your delivery story.

Now, how about pics of the weekend long cook?

That's a heck of a ride!! I'm very lucky that my drive will only clock in at 515 miles round trip. Just waiting on my day! My first cook is going to be a charity cook to raise money for Child Abuse Prevention! Should be a blast!

Congrats on the great cooker. Wish I could welcome you to the family but I don't have one...yet.

Great looking rig. Now what's all this talk about these Texas boys being Bama Fans??? :tsk:

I got my 24x75 cabinet in March. Drove through a blizzard from Cincinnati to past Nashville!
Got to the Shirley's, had a mattress for the back of my Suburban to sleep on, they would have NOTHING to do with that.
Sounds like we dined at the same place. If you got the Prime Rib, I know it was good eats!
Paul and Sharon truly like old friends. Best part for me was when they asked if they could pray for me and the trip home.
Love that family!!
BTW.... The cooker rocks too!
Welcome to the SF family brother!!

ROLL TIDE!! Nice looking pit. I spent a few years on campus there, from what I remember I went to class a couple of days as well.

 

[BoLiles]

I wasn't abLe to meet Paul (he had worked the night before), but I met Sharon, Tyler, Ross, and the crew. All of them were down to earth and very polite/cordial. This was just a couple weeks ago. I left them a bag of my rub and lexington style bbq sauce (NC). Tyler sent me a text a wek later and complimented me on both and wanted to know if I sold it, said others loved it he was cooking for. Tyler followed it up a couple days later asking how it would taste on quail. I figured once I picked up the trailer, I wouldn't hear anything (sure many leave them samples)......but Tyler was very respectful and down to earth! I've heard many others say, "welcome to the SF family"........I understand why now.......the Shirley's make you feel like family!
