As you may know, the new machine was sitting in the UPS distribution center since last Thursday. Yesterday it finally came in. I called Jeff stouthearted 19th of Jan to place the order. After talking with him for a while, we dialed in exactly what I wanted and worked out a price. He offered me an excellent military discount and was probably the only reason I could swing it. (Besides the fact I sold my Ooni last month and my Hunsaker today). Came bolted to the pallet and getting the wheels on was easy with 2 people. (Shout out to the wife for helping!!) I washed it all down yesterday evening when I got the wheels on to get the manufacturing dust/weld dust out of it. I got it to the back patio and called it an evening. This morning, I fired it up to 250 to finish drying it out (was really humid last night). Stabilized at 250 and wife and I ran to Sams. Came back an hour later and it was sitting at 253. Removed everything wiped it out again, sprayed down with avocado oil, put everything back into place and brought up to 360. Been holding there ever since. At noon, going to back it back down and smoke a chuck roast for some Mississippi Pot Roast.
