our celebration meal when we moved into our new home last june. no big story, you know me by now - - usda prime steaks, a little salt and pepper, and pecan wood.... all on my original ots kettle. just couldn't bring myself to put those gorgeous slabs of ribeyes and sea critters on the new gasser.



in the beginning my collection was small, before I went off the chain



you know those jack daniels whiskey half-barrels that are used fro planters? we got a few and I drilled 6 2" holes in the bottom of each for drainage... the shavings smelled like whiskey so I swept them up in a bag and use them to smoke steaks.

I was taking pics all along, for my reference only. had no idea id be a member of this forum - hell I didn't even know it existed back then. so I didn't get pics of the food, plates, inside cuts, etc.
the brand was a birthday present from my wife. still figuring out how to use it on my steaks since I never lift the lid on my pits!

don't lift the lid...
