Did anyone else see the live Q&A about the ABCBarbecue Kamado? I have toyed with the idea of a kamado for the past few years but this might be the one to make me pull the trigger. Seems like it solves some of the common concerns of other kamados. Just need to start saving some pennies to pay for it. Or convince my wife we should spend our tax return on another cooker and not stuff like tires, stuff for the new baby, etc.

Same principle as a kettle, still true 2 zone by bringing the heat up close to the grate and giving you 2 silutaneous sides. But knowing Dave I wouldn't put it past him to have plans for an oblong (Primo-shaped) kamado as well... Really though if you think about it, you can still do a lot of meat on the indirect side of the grate, and you could still use this as a traditional kamado setup as well. There's less need for side space with the way this can be used.

* - Favorite Beer - the cold one in my hand (craft beers of all flavors; haven't had a blue yummy in over 6 years) my tastes change with the season so it is difficult to name just a couple. However, I will occasionally have a vanilla porter float in the summer (Empyrean Vanilla Porter w/a scoop of homemade vanilla ice cream) as I usually drink stouts & porters in the colder months, pale ales & IPAs in the warmer months. I have to add Not Your Father's Root Beer to beers I use for floats.
* - Booze - I don't really have a favorite, but lean towards single malt Scotch & Irish whiskey
* - Wines - Reds: mainly the heavy stuff mixed in with the occasional pinot noir ( I have yet to meet a malbec I didn't like); Whites: German & Nebraska (hey, I have to support the home team)
* - Favorite Spice outlets - Volcanic Peppers - Bellevue, NE
* - Current butchers: Cure - Ft. Calhoun
Hmm...so now I have to rethink my future purchase. I was all down with the Hasty-Bake, but now I have to toss this one into the equation. From a penny pincher's view the Hasty-Bake equates to around $1.74 per sq. inch of cooking space versus the approximate $2.75/sq. in. for Dave's kamado. I guess I will withhold any judgments one way or the other until after more reviews come in on this new kamado.
The one thing that came to my mind was the cooking space with the SnS in place on the kamado, it doesn't provide me any more space than what I already have with the 22.5" kettle and the hovergrill. So then the little devil on the other shoulder is saying, but it is a really good price for a 22.5" kamado. Then some other devil jumps in and says, but it is the same price as Weber Summit Charcoal grill and the WSC is 24.5" and you don't have to worry about it breaking if the little grandmonsters get out of control and knock it over. Sigh...
I'm going back to sleep as I think I just had a bad MCS dream.

I think Dave, who has been working on this for a while, is on the right track to coming up with the perfect grilling/smoking cooker. Having said that, I'm sure there are going to be future iterations and sizes offered. I'm with you on this Craigar, I'm not sure that this is really enough cooking surface bang for the buck. I'll continue to watch with interest, I'm not yet sold.

JoeSousa Tell your wife the tires still hold air and you'll put a roll of duct tape in the glove compartment. The Kamado is for the baby, s/he needs to learn how to cook and you need to spend some time with it so you can show her/him how, 18 years should be enough, eh? Now the trick is, and this is very important, you must say it with a straight face and in all seriousness, because if you don't she'll laugh at you. Probably going to laugh at you anyway....
