By chance for those of you that have recently bought an R.T cooker, what comes in the box, are their directions or a manual? I want to make sure I get all the paper work.
Thank you.
Dan

Congratulations on your purchase! You’re going to love it! Unless something has changed Recteq doesn’t include a physical copy of an owner’s manual. There wasn’t a whole lot of extra stuff or paperwork in the box. There wasn’t an index card in a bag with a QR code that would take you to the owner’s manual. You can download and save it to your phone or computer for quick reference

Congrats ! You won't be mad at the size . 1 rack of ribs or 10 . Better to have the room , and I think it helps the over all cook .

Different brand , but I did smoked burgers on mine the other night . First for me ,, awesome . If it ain't smashed I'm going smoked from now on .
Might be a good first cook , or throw a couple on for the ride .

Most likely ribs, I have to figure out the cooker before my next rib contest. Although I have 5 three bone beef plate in the freezer so you never know. I'm excited to see the comparison between my old Camp Chef and the new R.T.
I found a home for the old Camp Chef, I'm giving it to the lady next door.
Now to sell the off set, I'm done with tending coal in 100*+ heat.
I only used it 3 to 5 times last summer because of that, the thing is still damn near new.

Guess I went backwards, I finally got an offset this year. I don’t mind it yet, it’s the newness of it I guess.

My first smoker was a cheap offset. I don't miss pulling those all-nighters.

Ditto. I just gave my Jambo clone to my nephew.

I started MANY yrs ago on an offset, owned several, it was fun back then. Then I went to a drum smoker, then pellet pooper, back to an offset, can't stand babysitting it anymore, so I'm back to a bigger pellet pooper, still use the drum for some things, but I use a PID stoker unit on it. 90% of my smoking is 90 to 100* + summer heat, and I just don't enjoy sweating over coals for hours on end anymore, so it's back to pellets and chunk wood for now. We'll see how long it lasts this time around.
