David Parrish "Please note for the record I used 2017 and not 2016. I've impressed myself!" LOL and agree!

I've made the mistake of using last year's date a lot less often since the decline of checks and the rise of debit cards and Bill Pay!

[RonB]

Congrats joyous . We'd love photos of whatever you decide on. And thanx for responding so quickly. Normally everyone has to follow the winners thread for several weeks until a winner responds.

joyous have you narrowed things down a bit yet?

[joyous]

joyous have you narrowed things down a bit yet?

David Parrish - Yep! My current arsenal: a weber smoky joe that I've had forever, a 22" weber kettle, a PBC, a 2nd PBC (that I won from Slap Yo Daddy), a fire pit with an height adjustable, swing away grill, and a kenmore gasser that my DH got me for Mother's Day 2016 after our other kenmore gasser that I hated finally died. Bless his heart...He meant well. So, I'll take the Blaze!

[tbob4]

Congrats again - that's a good choice based on your arsenal. I'd love to see the heigh adjustable, swing away grill. Sounds fantastic. Is it kind of like a modified Santa Maria, in ground pit? There are a couple of folks planning outdoor kitchens this summer who might get ideas.

[Steve_D12]

Congrats on the win, that Blaze is a hot choice in the past few months

[JCBBQ]

Congratulations on your prize! As a newbie I respectfully ask you indulge me for a moment. We all have different purposes in joining the pit. I joined to learn and improve my skill. The promise of information that could help me was my enticement. That doesn't mean we have to make posts every day. I have seen several comments suggesting monthly winners have not "participated", an implication that they are not worthy of winning. However, they pay the same membership, search the site for help and enjoy the advise available to all of us as part of our membership. This is not a jab at anyone but a suggestion that we, as a whole, raise the conversation and appreciate all that participate through giving their hard earned dollars; whether they are prolific posters or not.
Stand Tall,
Steve

It is more of a running joke as to the odds that one of the "regulars" might win. Trust me, as moderators we appreciate all members and we are forbidden to win, only dream with empty minds and be super happy for those that get to pick an awesome prize.
