If you were fortunate enough to have to make the decision, which Second Prize item would you choose? Feel free to tell us why in the comments. And, is the price/value a consideration or is it more the item itself than its dollar value?

Current line-up of cookers: Oklahoma Joe's Bronco Pro, Masterbuilt Gravity Series 1050, Blackstone ProSeries 4 Burner 36" griddle, Weber Performer Deluxe and Weber Smokey Joe.
I chose FireBoard2, mainly because it would be an upgrade over my current thermometer, not to mention the other things it can be set up to do. Everything else on that list would be redundant or not as good (imho) as what I already have.

PBC (@HawkerXP standing behind me chanting has NOTHING to do with this...). Mostly because I don't need the knives, the FB would be nice but the Smoke is fine for my uses and I wouldnt use the griddle that much.
Value doesn't really factor into it for me at all. It's strictly what I'd find fun/useful.

I would probably choose the PBC, I'd never buy one but I would use it if it was free. If I didn't already have a FB2 I'd choose that...
Though it would be nice if the SNS Kettle made it's way back to the list, that for sure would be my first pick. Other items that roughly fit the price point (or at least used to before their respective price increases) of second place that would be cool is a Grilla Chimp, PKGo, or a Camp Chef camp stove (this would make sense for them to offer to you guys since they'd still be making bank on the versatop accessories)...
But I digress, whatever prize I would choose would not be based on cost, but be based on what do I want/need that my wife would be unhappy if I purchased myself?

I would make a game time decision. It wouldnโt be the knives for sure. It would likely be the griddle, but maybe the PBC. It wouldnโt be cost, but what I felt I might actually use.

I already have a pretty good set of BBQ knives, and an older FireBoard that works well. I don't need a PBC and don't want the electric cooker. I guess I would choose the newest latest greatest Fireboard, but I might go with the knives depending on my mood at the time... Not that it will matter since my continuous winning streak of losing shows no sign of changing... Not that I need one, but I seem to recall someone suggesting a Cambro if AR is thinking of retooling the prizes..
