Okay, I have to admit that I'm thinking about this cooker. Would be just the ticket for big cater jobs that my little FE-100 can't handle. Seems like a hell of a deal even with the heavy use.

Any last minute advice, brothers?

Sure the price will go up as bid comes to an end.

Todd, I don't know how ebay savvy you are, but if you are going for it, don't make a bid until less than a minute before the closing time. No gain in bidding it up.

The seller has a good track record, so that is good, plus it is a pay when you pick it up deal, so even better.

"I NEVER DID GET A TITLE FOR IT"

I would investigate the above statement in doing your do diligence.

With homemade trailers, you have to apply for a license and a title. I assume that's what he means. I've never heard of a title for a cooker.

Yep! I remember getting mine registered and had to tell the DMV I made it:shock: . Probably different state to state.

Good luck, Todd!

Southern Pride says that the pit was made in 1983. They still manufacture parts for it. They haven't made that model in forever.

Think I'll have to pass. :lol:

You might have done a wise thing!

Here is another one I am sure you saw it. Smaller and does not have trailer mod!

Actually I think they also build them up the street from me.

What about and fec 500?

We have cooked 50 butts on it at once. Catering ribs off it tonight for 200. Cooking the beans and potatoes on it too.

The only thing about the Southern Pride is you have to buy the majority of the parts directly from them. (according to a couple of people I know that have them) I opted for the Ole' Hickory because they are basically the same grill but, most of the parts are available at your local heating and air supplier.

That Southern Pride is back up on the auction block. Only $1500 right now.

I know where you can buy an FEC500..... I just watched it roll off the trailer last night.... man is that a purty cooker.

Hey HoDeDo, do tell more about the FEC500. I am in the market for a big cooker like that. Is it on a trailer?
