    Gotta love the LoneStar

    ​ Click image for larger version  Name:	IMG_1036.JPG Views:	1 Size:	5.69 MB ID:	312645​ Grillz that is. Made in the great LoneStar state of Texas.
    Got 3 4lb chuckies dry brined for 36hrs and I decided to inject all 3. First time doing this. Thanks fzxdoc for the diagram on how you inject. If the doc thing doesn't pan out you could always become an artist. ​​
    A nice coating of BBBR and onto the LSG.
    In a couple of hrs I will be adding a rack of baby backs and a 3 rib beef back rib from a prime rib I did a couple of weeks ago.
    I'll have more pics later on. ​ ok ribs are on and added a few more logs although the pic went to the top of my post. Nice smoke coming out of the chimney too.
    The chuckies are at138-144*. So I got some time before wrapping

                Would look a whole lot better with an insulated firebox.

                  Still don't know what's so special about a insulated firebox

                This is starting to take too long now.
                Chuckies been on for 6 hours now and their still in some what of a stall. Been hanging around 153* for about 2-1/2 hours. They are just now starting to climb. Up to 160ish. Maybe 1 degree every 15min or so.
                On the good side they're looking real purdy.
                I've been trying to run my temps in the 250-280 range to get through the stall. I seem to be using a lot of wood this cook???

                  I like these smokers a lot. I love the stack positioning on the cooking chamber. The damper on the stack is also pretty sweet too. How do you like that griddle surface over the fire box? I would use that all the time!

                  I do wish they had a different stand though. More like the Yoder or Horizon design.

                    The flat top (griddle) is pretty cool. I have used it several times. I do need to use it more though.
                    Never even thought about the stand but the storage space is very useful.

                    Thanks.
                    I believe they do and if not I'm sure they would if the price is right.

                    Email them. Pretty sure their prices include taxes already, they now do 12-36 month financing, and I'm pretty sure they will customize to whatever is possible for them to do.

                  Uh oh! I just was on their site and noticed for the first time that they offer 0% financing for the first year. In my mind this purchase wasn't going to happen this year. I'm going to have to figure out how to break this to SWMBO.

                    BTW, in your original post I only see the 3rd and then the last two pics. Anyone else not seeing all the pics?

                      Hmmm. I think all the pics I posted are here. I believe 11 in total?
