Ordered on Thursday delivered today - impressive, of course it shipped out of the midwest so it didn't have to travel far.

The unboxing






The steel is very thick






Going to give her a test run today to smoke some poppers and brats.  Can't wait.

Awesome to see you got your Slow 'N Sear in time to use for the weekend @LightningBoldtz.  I can't wait to see pics of your cooks

[LightningBoldtz]

I am too lazy to upload pics but my first cook consisted of 15 lit coals in the bottom a load of used coal and some lump on that. 

I was smoking brats first so I had to keep it low under 200.  I was very impressed with the ability to keep the temp, probably a combination of the kettle, the water and the S n S but once I set a temp it stayed for a long time.  After that I dialed up the temp for some poppers,  very responsive to vent adjustment again, I am not giving the SnS all the credit, I think the kettle itself played a role.  That said, I am really going to like this thing.

I would like to test the 4 hours on a quart theory from what I saw, I am not so sure.

We just got a review published on AR and have been working overtime this weekend to get a decent landing page to help folks quickly get an idea of what the SnS can do.

@LightningBoldtz a quart of water will last over 5 hours when cooking at 225F.  The reservoir is designed to slowly boil the water so you get the right amount of steam for an extended period of time.  Check out this video.

Yeah, my test was far from scientific, I saw your launch page, I think a main point too many on this site and an appealing part of your product is never banking hot coals against the side of the kettle.

I hear ya.  With the landing page we're catering to a large audience, many of whom are newer to charcoal grilling, so it's meant to be a quick read and high level.  Can't get everything in there.

Just purchased my second weber, a 26. This thing is HUGE! What better way to keep it in great shape and get great results. SNS ordered.

Has anyone done any test on differences in temp from top rack and putting something on the bottom rack for more room?

The bottom rack will run about 70F cooler than the top rack.  You can get a lot of food on a 26" kettle.  I'm not sure you'll need the bottom rack.

I do know a competition BBQer that uses both the top and bottom rack and get's the bottom rack much closer in temp to the top rack by placing a large water pan over the SnS.  I'm not sure if that's all he had to do, or if there was another trick he had to use to make it work.

As I played with the concept & looked @ make Exp. Metal back strap;
I noticed this thing is effectively DOUBLE BURNER Vortex!

I just order (#450) from ABC & play with an EM bottom idea that @Hogsy has

@ABCbarbecue  Thanks for your service David
