    GMG Daniel Boone issues

    When not in use I keep a cover on mine and unplugged. Don’t want something to start when it shouldn’t. If it’s raining or snow, I use a patio umbrella to cover the hopper and electronics area - works great!

    Just joined the GMG Prime club

    Just keep on cooking! You will love the prime, I do! If it’s the wifi version, they just recently released 1.4 official firmware.

    Old grill just about burnt out

    Since I have 2 KJs, my vote for the big joe. Goes from low/slow to sear. Pretty much set and forget for temp control.

    Amazen Products available in Alberta

    Ya bbq country's website does suck. Few months ago I emailed them to see if they were carrying the kick ash basket product line. They said no not carrying them. So a month ago I ordered one from Ontario. Last week I was in their store a lots and lots of that product line!

    Canadian sources

    Try Dickson bbq - online ordering, shipping reasonable. Robert is very good to deal with.

    Big Green Egg vs Webber Smokey Mountain

    Hmm that's odd - kamados usually produce a moister meat? I have a KJ classic liked it so much got a second for the cabin. Maybe it's his technique? Maybe do to an egg fest in your area If you are really serious about a Kamado , also take a look at a Kamado Joe or Primo grill to see what will...

    YYC Smoker

    Welcome fellow calgarian! When you are ready for brisket suggest contacting Brant lake Waygu. Reasonably priced and a good cut. I think they arare still at the farmers market on Macleod

    Ceramic Egg Smoker temp question

    Lots of fresh lump and make sure the ash pan/trap is clear to let the air flow. I suggest you put the deflector on the top grate, put little copper plumbing tees on the deflector and then the pizza stone on that. 600 is my pizza temp.
