Why do I try and fight MCS?!

After watching this Baby Back Maniac video, I'm sold on the SnS Travel Grill, assuming I "need" one.

Then I followed the link to the SnS Travel Grill page on the SnS website, and found that I could take advantage of 20% off.
The SnS travel kettle with the SnS charcoal basket, shipping, etc., the total comes to $186.81.

Then I saw the link on the same SnS Travel Grill webpage saying I could buy the same bundle through Prime. Amazon Prime is offering it at 30% off with free shipping, making the total $149.45.

(You can't take advantage of Prime if you are buying the version without the SnS charcoal basket, though. Plus the accessories (drip pan and cover) do not add to the Prime basket, so there's that.)

Now I'm really tempted.

Added later: OK. I just pulled the trigger on the Travel Kettle with the SnS charcoal basket. Will get the drip pan and cover separately, but will watch for an accessories sale first, since this little guy can live in the garage until it gets a cover. Thanks, ofelles, for the heads up on the sale.

Hmmm, that bundle is showing $200 on Amazon for me.

Great score btw, I've been sold on the SnS travel for some time, I just haven't pulled the trigger yet.

Always fun to spend $. More fun to spend others $. 🙃

Talk about an awesome deal! When I purchased this I purchased it when I needed it and I couldn’t get any kind of discounts at all. I stupidly made the mistake of purchasing it without a cover, so I ended up buying that separately. I spent well over $225 when you factor in shipping. Man, oh man. Last week it was the Weber summit Kamado at that great price and now it’s this grill and overpaying for it. Why do the MCS gods torture me? Is it because I’m a Bears fan? Cubs fan?

Since the Amazon link did not feature any accessories to the Travel Kettle, I'll order the cover and the drip pan directly from the SnS site. In the meanwhile, I'll keep the TK in the garage until its new raincoat arrives.

I purchased a SNS travel kettle in December with the 20% off so that I could take it with me while we were traveling in the San Juan Islands for Christmas. I ended up cooking 7 prime ribeyes cut from a Creekstone roast over the week while we were away. The longer story is that 5 of them were eaten by a party of 14 who after they found out that I was traveling with a grill and a 14 pound rib roast were like "Hell yes, please come over for Christmas dinner". 😆 It's so much nicer than my 14 inch Smokey Joe and with the SNS basket I made some of my best steaks yet! Since we've been home it's been my go-to grill. I love how fast it heats up, how little charcoal it uses, and the generous size (18 inches). It's so fun to use, I give it the highest rating. Sorry no pic of cooked steaks only dry brined. 🔥🔥🔥🐿

There's nothing like a charcoal grill and a load of beef to make a gal popular almost anywhere she goes. I first learned that in grad school, cooking burgers on a little hibatchi just outside my dorm.

Your Christmas trip sounds wonderful, and tasty.

I got the SNS Travel Kettle also at a great price (30% off, free shipping) through Amazon Prime back in October. SnS products are so good--that Dave Parrish can sure design great cookers and accessories!

[fzxdoc]

Yup, DaveD . There was a grad dorm and married grad student housing.

fzxdoc Well I'll be. Learn something new every day Dorm life never appealed to me, I lived off campus through all my schoolin'...

Good job, I have been looking at that one also. Look forward to hearing and seeing everyone's successes with that smaller cooker.
