Hell yeah...damn right I would trade. They are great grilles also. I got my KJ at costco roadshow. I love the Royal Oak I get from Charcoal Guy in Memphis plus it is a cool shady type place.

Jason....I have more hickory that I can cook through so I choose it. I am about to take another 15 footer down in a few months.
 
@Kaderabek bought me a Tri Tip from Hickory Nut Gap and I fired it last night in the Egg.

600* sear (not enough on the fat side according to Chef Lou) and center at 120*

I chilled it and sliced it tonight.

Superb.

I can't find tri tip anywhere out here. (been looking for 6 months now); the local butcher calls it a California thing...

I guess I will have to order online. $50 delivered from that hickory nut store online ($32 freight). Hell No!

Although, I am really wanting to smoke one.

Any other recommended online meat stores out there?

I've yet to find a tri tip in MS...trimmed or otherwise.

Neither have I and apparently a common problem (saw this on the Primo forum while doing some "homework" and thought I'd share):

ORDERING BEEF TRI-TIP AT THE STORE

PRINT THIS OUT AND TAKE IT WITH YOU

If the meat manager or meat cutter at your store is not sure what Tri-Tip is, tell them this:

"Tri-tip is sometimes called the triangle roast. According to the Uniform Retail Meat Identity Standards (the national standardization guidelines), Tri-Tip's UPC number is 1429 and Tri-Tip's IMPS/NAMP code is 185C. Please look this information up if you're not familiar with it and cut me -- or order me -- a Tri-Tip roast. Thank you!"

It comes from the Bottom Sirloin, which has three muscles...1)Ball Tip 2) Flap Meat and 3) the Tri-Tip. DO NOT let them sell you Sirloin Tip or London Broil, which are both from the Round, not the Sirloin. Or any other cut of meat...a Tri-Tip is a Tri-Tip.

All they have to do is call their supplier and mention the above numbers to get the Tri-Tip. A little effort with the phone is a lot better than remaining ignorant with every customer that may request a Tri-Tip.
 
If you like meat and like to smoke meat take the biggest cooler you can fit next time you go to DFW area or NOLA area and shop at Costco. PRIME brisket is $3.29lb. Also PRIME untrimmed tenderloin is some where around $16lb. PRIME Rib roast is $13lb.

Well worth it to stock up. I freeze in my vaccum sealer is it blows away any other product I can find anywhere close to me.
 
JT... Haven't tried yet, but I'm sure I would have similar results :)

Well, I'm officially in the game as this showed up on my back porch today:

Obviously haven't cooked on it yet and I'm sure there will be a learning curve, but here are a few features that I like out of the box (I'm sure all models have these or similar):
Fire box splitter so you can cook veggies and such on indirect heat

Drip pan holder also holds the heat shield so you can cook like convection oven

I like the table with stainless steel side panels. Better than a "nest" and will be good for mobility as well. Got the ash tool to help scoop out the dust.

Will fire it up this weekend for a test run.

Hot Damn
 
Great minds think alike! (Though I used a store bought crust)

50/50 pizza/bbq sauce, grilled chicken, onions, peppers. Light cherry wood smoke. Mmmmm, girl that was delicious!
