So, I ended up giving "The Beast" to my older son.  As I detailed in a different thread, he is a junior in college and plays on the baseball team.  They were required to live in campus their first two years, and now he and three friends/team mates share a house.  Well, I wasn't going to let these young men - and certainly not my first born - move into a house without a proper outdoor cooker.  He was pretty pumped when I told him I wanted him to bring it to school with him.

Fast forward to this weekend.  Wife and I and another set of house/baseball parents we've become friendly with up in Oregon visiting.  I broke that beast in for real last night!  Two tri tips, beans, and a pan of Italian sausage/onions & peppers.  Those boys ate (and drank) like kings!  Great night!

Interesting thing:  When it got hot, the lid and bowl really changed color noticeably.  The bowl almost got a bit lighter, the lid definitely got darker.

They will be forever wise in the way of the kettle.  Proper send off! 
I only use kettles with lid bales.
