New (to me) Jambo Backyard

[PBCDad]

That is AWESOME!!!! On the Fans of Jambos Facebook group I've seen 5-year-old pits go for the same price as new - they just don't lose value. I am having so much fun with my smoker, I know you are going to love yours!

The insulated firebox gets HOT. I've been keeping my fire on one half of the box and putting in sticks on the other half to dry out. One time the wood on the other side was smoking from the heat - it wasn't touching the sides or anything!

Tagging PaulstheRibList because I know he'll want to see the good news too. I haven't looked at the other Texas pits, but based on how it performs and how the food tastes, I believe the pitmasters when they say that these are the best pits in the world!

Thank you PBCDad! Yes, GoJambo!

I do exactly that with the wood. Small fire on left, wood stacked along the right side to preheat. #InsulatedFireboxForever

I think mine is an older generation one but I was able to pick it up for $1,800 and no shipping, plus he gave me a large kindling cracker I looked at your photos and I think your exhaust is a bit higher than mine and I have heard the opening of the firebox is in a different location. would be interested to know how different it is from yours!

[PBCDad]

Wow, that is a GREAT deal smokinfatties! I have no doubt the older generations cooked just as well. There has been no learning curve on mine, they are so nice to cook with

[HouseHomey]

[Troutman]

Most excellent find. I'm almost afraid to ask how much ......

[smokinfatties]

$1,800 and I picked up an hour away. new ones are closer to $2,500 plus shipping to CA can be up to $1,000. It's a first generation one in pretty decent shape. Built like a tank! Cant wait to try it!
