New to the forum, but I've had my KBQ for about 8 months. Thought I'd contribute something. Any KBQ mods people are making to this fine machine? Personally, I'm trying to find half sized racks which will make for easier cleanup. The included ones end up soaking in the bathtub at the end of a cook, and I'd prefer something that'll fit in my kitchen sink.

Hotel pans can be found here. BBQ_Bill sells a door kit, it has handles that keep the door up off the ground so juice and grease falls back into the cook box. He also has a door hinge kit, basically a tube that allows you to take the door off for cleaning. I highly recommend both.

The door tube coupler is what brought me to the forum. Did a search for mods and saw that nifty piece of ingenuity. I'm hoping I can get one from Bill.
Current setup I'm using is a 1.5" deep full size hotel pan which fits in the second to lowest rack slot. Also using a switch https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1) to toggle the machine on/off easily.

ST520 There have been a couple of switch ideas kicked about. I think Bill has found something that works for him. PM Bill for the door kit, it's very modestly priced and worth every penny.

Howdy and welcome to The Pit ST520.
Just Private Message me with your mailing address.

A complete door kit is $16 if memory serves me correctly, but if all you want is the tube, it isn't much and weighs very little, so I will just put it into a tear-resistant envelope and mail it to you at no charge.

ST520 No, I'm eating while the grates are hot! I run it over just before a cook. I suppose while they are still warm the Ringer and some soapy water would have them sparkling,

Very good looking Que! Doesn't everybody just apply Easy Off to their racks and haul them to the local car wash to hose them down?
