Just for Fun: Have you named your favorite cooking device(s) and if so, what?

[DaveD]

My answer is in the old thread... and I hardly ever use the nickname anyway.

Never used charcoal til Dec 2021. Got PBC, “ purty black cooker”, then picked up copper 22.
“lil’ red head” PBC’s big brother. This was In Bonesy’s honor, for the first memorial cook.
20 plus year old gasser canabalized itself n got “Victory” new LP w/Roti. Then as luck would have it. A guy trying to unload an SnSK
contacted the AR website. Someone told him it would be a great place to find a buyer.
I wanted it soo bad but SWMBO said NO!
The guy got back a week later n said he was having no luck on FB, picture book, birdie book or gregs list. Offered it at a price I could not resist. Ta Daa! “Could not Resist!”
Then a month later, I am driving down the road minding my own biz( for once )and low n behold poor little “Orphan Ollie” crying, abandoned, on the side of the road. Here I come to save the Day!!!
Then wouldn’t you know it? I win the AR second place prize! “Woodford” the Winner a stick burner!

I cleverly dubbed my black Primo XL “The Midnight Toker” when it arrived 7 ish years ago. Today I realized I never once referred to it as that. Guess I’m not that type cuz I don’t have names for any on my inanimate objects. I got some names for my wife though…that make her pretty animated.

I haven’t named any of my cookers, in fact I’ve named very few things. The deal with my wife was if they were boys I could name them, if girls she would name them, so I named two sons. I also named several pets. The only other thing I’ve ever named was my first truck at Halliburton. Her name was slobbering Hessie, the leakingest, smokingest, most dangerous frac pump truck to ever go down a highway.

Grill (nexgrill gasser), smoker (22” WSM), smoker (18” WSM), old smoker (masterbuilt gas smoker).

[jecucolo]

When I first got the PBC I referred to it as my “grilfriend”. Over time we drifted apart. She thinks I’m demanding and I think she’s temperamental. We decided to stay together for the family. Now we just have an open relationship. We are both very happy. I’m allowed to see other grills!

Sorry… what was the question ?

[RichieB]

Very creative.

[HotSun]

Ha, good one!

[RiverJeff]

I have some what the same feelings with "Cherry".

[ItsAllGoneToTheDogs]

Haven't named anything in a while... the SS 2 Star probably deserves a name and a will entry though I guess... the PKGO as well (although the internals won't last a lifetime the capsule should) I suppose

[tenphases]

I have a Kamander as well and..... I positioned it next to my PBC. The Kamander looks kinds of modern with a cool name and the PBC has horshoe type handles sooooo when they were next to each other they reminder me of Buzz Lightyear and Woody 🤣 so Buzz and Woody it is!

[HotSun]

Oh, that's funny. My next 'device' will probably be a PBC, already dropping hints with the DW on that one. It's hard for her to complain with a mouthful of picanha.

[luvthemstillers]

Due to all the mods I've made to my WSM, my wife dubbed it R2-D2. It made me chuckle, so R2-D2 it is.

[Half Bad]

Love the mods

[HotSun]

Nice!

[hoovarmin]

I haven't because I'm just not that creative

[RichardCullip]

Haven’t named my Weber Kettle but we do name our vehicles. George is our 2007 Suburban and Max is our 2022 RAV4 Prime.

[HotSun]

Same here. We've got Clyde (Mazda3) and Onyx (Highlander), and have had an Emily, Scarlett, and Klaus.

[mrteddyprincess]

Oh no. Chuck and I give those two crap all the time. Your comment was funny! :-)

[LA Pork Butt]

I once knew an old farmer who when I asked what his dog’s name was he said, “I just call him dog.” LOL That pretty much sums up the name of my cookers!
