It's all fun and games until your kid decides she's coming for your crown.

What does a typical 11 year old spend their money on? Video games? Clothes? Candy? Nope...not our kid. My 11 year old wanted to use a portion of her Christmas money to buy her very first smoker, all by herself. She got an ASMOKE AS350 mini pellet smoker at Menards for $89. She's already trying to challenge me to a throw-down.

Proud dad moment today. Very, very proud moment.

That's awesome, you should be proud! Like to hear the results of that throw-down when it happens. LOL

 

[SmokinEdge]

Well, that’s just sweet. And yes would make you proud. Do a throwdown and post up the results. She might just surprise us all.

 

[pc farmer]

Hell yeah. Great job raising her

 

[JLinza]

Very cool. I would like to volunteer to be a taste tester in that throwdown

 

[Rafter H BBQ]

That’s great Quig, very cool to see the kiddos passionate and active. You have the right to be proud for sure… but also look out… sounds like she’s coming for ya!

Has she decided on the maiden voyage smoke yet?

That's gotta be the best Christmas present ever (unless it happened for Father's Day).

 

[jcam222]

I love it. . . congratulations to the young lady.

 

[sandyut]

That is very very cool and special! Proud dad I am sure.

 

[forktender]

That's flat-out KILL'ER, I hope she kills it!!!

 

[WaterRat]

Cool

 

[Jim_C]

That's cool.......Kids can run circles around us adults, and they learn fast. She'll be a pro in no time.

 

[Fueling Around]

Good purchase on the mini

 

[GatorAGR]

Best read of the day! Can’t wait to see what she cooks. We want pics!

 

[Kit Johnston]

Congratulations, and a rightfully proud father moment! I have already conceded steak-cooking skills to my oldest son (30 years old), but he still hasn't taken on the low-and-slow style. As I proceed into my pellet smoker years, and gift one of my stick burners to him, he will need to figure that part out.

Vegas is already giving odds to the lady at +350.
You're lagging behind at +900



Good luck to her in her new endeavors.
