    Godspeed, Rude Boy!

    The time was right. Sold my big smoker today, it’s heading up north to become the workhorse at a restaurant. Really happy with the buyer and destination. It’s been a sweet ride, and plenty of great cooks, but out with the old, in with the new.

    Sad to see him go. I loved the journey from seeing him born to doing his job well and teaching others. ...so what's "the new", did I miss something??

      Don’t think so, but I’m busy building a lot of backyard smokers. I remember when I joined the pit; I was envious of your Yoder Whichita - now I’m building my own smokers and brand. What a journey!

      Indeed, a Milestone, both personally, fer yerself, an fer Th Pit.

      Truly, th end of one era, an beginnin of another.

      Ya mentioned 'New', Hank, an I'd reckon, from previous comments that means a New Model cooker, which, like others above ^^^^, we'd all Love to see!

            Rude Boy led the way. He had a good run. Onward and upward.

              So sad for him to move on, but at least it would be too much effort to take that name plate off!

              Hey, it’s a Hank’s cooker. They better leave the nameplate on! Yessir!
              Or may I add, there might be some trouble! 🤨

              Fireboard: The Ultimate Top Of The Line BBQ Thermometer

              Fireboard Labs Product Photo Shoot. Kansas City Commercial Portrait and Wedding Photographers --Kevin Ashley Photography

              Masterbuilt MPS 340/G ThermoTemp XL Propane Smoker


              This is the first propane smoker with a thermostat, making this baby foolproof. Set ThermoTemp's dial from 175o to 350oF and the thermostat inside will adjust the burner just like an indoor kitchen oven. All you need to do is add wood to the tray above the burner to start smokin'.

              GrillGrates Take Gas Grills To The Infrared Zone


              GrillGrates(TM) amplify heat, prevent flareups, make flipping foods easier, kill hotspots, flip over to make a fine griddle, and can be easily rmoved from one grill to another. You can even throw wood chips, pellets, or sawdust between the rails and deliver a quick burst of smoke.

              The Pit Barrel Cooker May Be Too Easy


              The PBC has a rabid cult following for good reason. It is absolutely positively without a doubt the best bargain on a smoker in the world. Period. This baby will cook circles around the cheap offset sideways barrel smokers because temperature control is so much easier.

              Finally, A Great Portable Pellet Smoker


              Green Mountain's portable Davy Crockett Pellet Smoker is one mean tailgating and picnic machine. But it's also gaining popularity with people who want to add a small, set it and forget it pellet smoker to their backyard arsenal. And with their WiFi capabilities you can control and monitor Davy Crocket from your smart phone or laptop.

              Heat Resistant Gloves With Extra Long Sleeves Hold The Hot Stuff

              If you're using oven mitts at the grill, it's time to trade up. Say hello to these suede welder's gloves. They're heat resistant enough to handle hot grill grates, and flexible enough to handle tongs. The extra long sleeves even let you reach deep into the firebox to move hot logs without getting burned.

              The Good-One Is A Superb Grill And A Superb Smoker All In One


              The Good-One Open Range is dramatically different from a traditional offset smoker. By placing the heat source behind and under the smokebox instead of off to the side, Open Range produces even temperature from left to right, something almost impossible to achieve with a standard barrel shaped offset.
