Stop in at city hall and figure out who's on title for the address then give them a call  :)

I am gonna let everyone in on a little something. I went on google earth found the exact address. From there went to the county accessors web site. Well I have the land owners name and number and now just need to build up the courage to make a phone call.

Looking for--- a yellow mbh any size, sequoia ( I know I am dreaming), avocado any size, brownie any size.

I'd either call the guy or just leave a note on the front door.

@AZ Monsoon, @AZ_MIKEY, @G$, @Winz, and everyone else that was watching this last year.

I finally saw someone in the yard and bought this brownie from them! :o

It has problems, but I have seen worse. Definitely restorable!









Now, AZ peeps, who needs a brownie?

@jcnaz So funny - I have often thought about driving past that place after you showed me the location. 


Glad to see you finally sealed the deal!

The young man working in the yard is the son of the man who owned this grill. His father passed away last year. The grill has not been used for three or four years.
We came to an agreement on price after a few minutes of haggling. ;)

Red Kettle Rich

Strange triangle - wonder if the undercarriage is original 8)
Looking for a RED 26" Kettle & a tabbed no leg RED 22" Kettle near STL. Copper Sam Adams SJ anywhere 8)

The mystery brownie is ready to move to it's new home. A good friend of mine has started a collection and he is going to take it in.
I gave it a light cleaning, put a bone-pile undercarriage on it and it is ready to go.



I know that the pan and wheels aren't period, but they are what I have lying around.
The previous owner had welded a leg socket on without protecting the enamel of the bowl, so it received a spray of molten metal. The razor and #0000 steel wool did a good job of smoothing out the finish, but there will always be a bunch of freckles all over the bowl.
This will be a good cooker!
