Workhorse 1975 delivered today

[gunzby]

Ordered about three months ago and this thing is a beast. First off, I’m glad I got the counter weight because the lid weighs a ton and I messed my shoulder up last week or forever, who knows considering that I’m 51 and spent 20 years doing powerlifting.

Drinking beer and seasoning this thing up. Next week I get to cook on it. Why must my work ruin everything?

I do have sick days, but I like to roll them over.

Of course today has to be the most humid day all summer and it’s off and on raining

There is a lot to like there, but the detail that first caught my eye was the 4 thermometers, each side of each rack. Nice!

It’s definitely a beast. I wasn’t prepared for how heavy it is. On the plus side, because of that it holds temps incredibly well

I got that because I thought it would be easy to do chicken on the lower rack for a bit and then the top to finish. I’m glad I did because I was running 250 on the lower a little over 300 on the top

Nice rig,that heavy gauge metal makes cooking much easier on an offset.

Absolutely. Once I built a coal bed I’ve just been cruising while I season this thing.
