I was referring more to their smokers. You could use one of them on your grill and not need to buy a bigger smoker. I've read good results on BBQ forums, also read about a few problems but i imagine that inherent in most products.

I'm starting some plans to build an offset smoker out of some barrels. I debated doing a UBS since it would be much easier and cheaper to build. Although I want to use wood as my heat source since I burn wood in the house during the winter so I usually always have some, but a UBS primarially uses charcoal as it's source.

My grill actually has a smoker box built into the 1 side with a dedicated burner. I used it once while I grilled some burgers. Worked great and added just a hint of smoke.

Not sure if I need a bigger smoker... but I def want a better one. I think my temps jump quite a bit actually since this one isn't really insulated.

I really can't use the grill to smoke though. We just moved to a 2nd floor apartment and it would be rude to the neighbors. I have to use the yard now to smoke.

yup. good thing its over at 530.

Im debating on getting a minivan. lol. I REALLY like the honda odysseys.

jpalamar 08-10-2012 10:51 AM

Minivans are for people with too many kids. You have 1 and your not married. Enjoy having a car while you can.

HickRocket1258 08-10-2012 11:04 AM

Jim don't get a minivan please.

Jay, I was hoping that a house would of been tying the knot, but I guess not haha.

Big_Jim 08-10-2012 11:04 AM

Camber is always retarded.

Big_Jim 08-10-2012 11:17 AM

its only cambered because of how much its lowered. at ride height the wheels is not tardcambered.

jpalamar 08-10-2012 11:24 AM

I'd rather not lower it that much if it 'makes' camber. I just hate that look.

jpalamar 08-10-2012 12:26 PM

3.5 hours to go. Can't count the time fast enough.

Oh... I haven't actually done my own job since last Monday. So far behind because I'm stuck doing my worthless bosses and the 2 secretaries jobs.

I'd love that... but even then I couldn't do it all. I finally hit the breaking point. My boss is gonna have lots of explaining to do now that everything is weeks behind to our customers.

Thats another reason I am thinking about one. My speakers and stands barely fit in my SRT8.

schaffer 08-10-2012 02:57 PM

He fits a pretty decent amount of equipment in a dodge caravan surprisingly.


Thought about a Toyota sienna. They has awd.

Big_Jim 08-10-2012 04:04 PM
