    Hmmm.... It says the carrier is supposed to contact me before arrival. The good thing is I have it coming to my place of employment. They cannot curb deliver it, as it is too large. So I needed someplace with a loading dock and/or forklift. So it has to come here, and Ill be here either way. I...

    Lonestar offset

    @gclark - what size did you get? My LSG should be here in a week or two (was picked up for delivery yesterday from Lone Star) I fear I have to roll mine in and out of the garage. And from what Chris said, it should be easy enough for two people. :emoji_confused: @joetee - Did you post any pics...

    Thanks for the WB! Absolutely will post up pics of the dance I'm going to have to do to get this home, and when she gets there. I'm sure I could squeeze it in, and from what I've seen, it can double as a cooking chamber. Ill call and ask about that as it may not be effective. But it would be a...

    Thanks for the Welcome Back... I feel like a kid at Christmas. I can't wait. I am looking forward to that notification email letting me know they are starting construction on it and the estimated delivery day. I cant have it delivered to my home, its too big & heavy. I need a loading dock or...

    Middle of the road upgrade? Or go all out?

    Welcome to SMF... To reiterate what some have already said, and to share my own experience.... Do NOT settle for the OKJ. I did, and two years almost to the date, I've ordered a beast stick burner from Lone Star Grillz (08/10). The OKJ runs about 20*-50* different from side to side...
