You Kamado loving potteryheads better have been telling the truth about how
great they are! I bid on a gas #7 on ebay and won the sombitch. Add
shipping and extras - she's gonna sh-t when/if she finds out how much it
costs. If I can't smoke a turkey for Thanksgiving without burning a sh-t
pile of wood, I'm gonna start hunting people down; if I can, I'll thank 'em.

You aren't going to need more than two or three fist-sized chunks of
wood. See my web site for tips on doing a Thanksgiving turkey:

Any tips for best ways to unload from a pickup? I've got a ramp I use to
load my 4wheeler; how many bodies do I need at the bottom to slow it down?

Your K will come crated in an industrial-strength crate of 2X4s and
plywood. I suppose you could uncrate it and then wheel it down the
ramp, but it might be easier to move it crate and all with a HEAVY
DUTY dolly. Either way, you'll want at least three bodies. A #7 is
heavy.

I suggest looking into the additional charge for having it delivered
to your door. It only cost me $45 extra to have my #7 delivered. Be
sure that Conway understands that you need a truck with a lift gate
and a pallet dolly.

Thanks, and remove the friggin' spam to reply.

Why? Are you expecting replies by e-mail?

PS: Be sure to have some pork butts on hand for the break-in period.
No sense in wasting all that heat, when you can cook on it straight
out of the box.
