Thanks Y'all, does anyone recognize what model it is? It's hard to find information on the old New Braunfels models before they were purchased and turned into smokers for the Dollar Store chain by Char Broil. You can find plenty on the Hondo, Black Diamond and the Bandera. I have a Black Diamond and another small NB that's in some of my other pics, I dont know what that one is either, but it's def. one of the earlier ones due to it's construction...heavy cast, like the Diamond. This one is like a combination between the Bandera and the Black Diamond with the added bonus of a reese hitch insert for tailgating.

 I do a fair bit of welding, it could be modified.....but if it is, it's one heck of a job! The seams are absolutely beautiful and the cut from the horizontal pit to the vertical is precision cut. Someone could have taken and cut off a Bandera and welded a cast Hondo on it i suppose and added the hitch, if they did...Kudos!!  Both the Horizontal and the vertical have the NB logos on them.
