I Did It - I Bought a Yoder

[Sweaty Paul]

Had mine almost 3 years. Love it. It’s gotten a workout since March. Last month I was cooking on it 4 nights/week and eating leftovers from it 3 nights!

Hey Jason Cross -
We're about an hour from each other!
I don't have the cooker yet.
It should be delivered this week!
Now I just need to figure out how to post pictures....

[Raven Rock]

Thanks Sweaty -
How long have you had yours?

[Raven Rock]

I love hearing you've had you Yoder a couple years and you still love it.
As for leaving California; both my wife and I knew it was time to move. And it sure was a great reason to buy a Yoder!

[Raven Rock]

Great to know - that's for the detail.

And now I know a dang fine way to whip up a whole batcha Smoked toast - thanks Mr. Bones!

Congrats on the move!! I live right outside Charlotte on the SC side in Fort Mill.

How have you liked the Yoder?

[Sweaty Paul]

Congratulations on the new smoker. I love my Yoder and suspect you’ll love yours too! Good luck on the move!

[Mr. Bones]

Well put, plus it's a dang dang fine way to whip up a whole batcha Smoked Toast, to go with yer meal of choice.

The point of the toast test is to tell where the hot spots are. I would aim for 350, lid closed, for 5 minutes on the grates and see what it looks like then. If you have enough info on the hot spots, you are done. If not, run it a bit longer.

I've had my Yoder for a couple years it's a great cooker. My son loved it so much he bought one for his family with the orange cart. You're going to love it.
Congrats on getting out California and not taking it with you.

[Raven Rock]

I'll be sure to write about my thoughts and impressions.
I need to learn how to post pictures....

Here's a question - how would I go about performing a toast test ( temp, warm-up time before placing the bread on the grates, lid closed or...., duration...). I need details,...

@Ravenrock - thanks for the feedback. We’ll have to keep our eye NC.

[Tuckmonster]

Congrats! The Yoder is on my short list, very curious to hear your take on it. I couldn't find a lot of hands-on reviews on the new ACS controller so it will be very interesting to hear what you think about that. Enjoy it!

[Raven Rock]

Are any of those that have replied going to the Memphis Meat Up next summer?

[Raven Rock]

Hey Dan - we pull into town Oct 6
Thanks for the welcome!
