Hi, my name is Darrell. I'm an OTR truck driver for over 25 years. During my off time I love doing backyard cooks. I have a 48" Lang Deluxe smoker, Rec-Tec pellet smoker,1 Weber Genesis 330, 1 Weber Performer (blue), 2 Weber kettles (1 black and 1 Copper), 1 26" Weber kettle, a WSM, 8 Maverick Redi Chek thermometers, a PartyQ, 2 SnS, Grill Grates, Cast Iron grates, 1 ThermoPop (orange) and 2 ThermoPens (pink and orange) and planning on adding more cooking accessories. Now I have an Anova sous vide, the Dragon blower and 2 Chef alarms from Thermoworks.

I like that idea! But I have wonder how many critters show up to like that tasty bacon grease off the firebox? My yard was in the thick woods just a few years ago and the raccoons and foxes have yet to move on.

Put some bacon grease on that truck too. You wouldn't want to lose that gem!

Can't wait to see the sticks burning blue. That side firebox is a beast. Looking forward to your adventures with this thing!
