Title: You're my boy, Blue!
Post by: Bob BQ on October 01, 2014, 07:58:31 PM
Picked up this blue OTG (my first blue!) last week off of CL. Asking price was $40... it was missing the ash bucket, so the seller cut the price in 1/2. Fortunately, I happen to have an 18.5 ash bucket  8). This beauty is in excellent condition... didn't even need a wipe down! The triangle is upside down... we'll address that at a later date. It's vent code is DH... 10 years old this year! Had to lose the plastic handles, of course.

Forecast for tonight and all day tomorrow is rain... perfect excuse to cook up tomorrow's dinner tonight as the inaugural cook.

There is a chance I may need to lose a grill (probably my red 18.5 L code :-\ :o ???) to keep SWMBO happy. I'll be sure to give you all first crack in the Member Sales and Trades forum if it comes to that.

Cool I just picked up my first blue off CL also. It's a 22 but not in such great shape though.

I have a 22.5 blue OTG and love it.  What is that contraption you have the hot dogs on?  That looks very cool.

I think i have tossed out 2-3 of those hot dog rollers over the past year that were given away as promotional gifts. Had i known anyone wanted them i would have kept as trade bait for some of the cool stuff you guys have that i need.

I've had this hot dog roller for at least a year or two now... my younger brother (@Lowbrass ) was going to donate it, but thought that I might like it. I think this was the second time I've used it. I gotta say, I wasn't terribly impressed. Maybe I was in a bit too much of a hurry (the rain was just starting). It was easier and quicker to take them off the roller and put them directly over the coals... we like dogs charred in our family, anyway...  8). This particular roller does come with a fairly long handle that attaches to it, for easy rolling. Next time we use it, I'll put it on one of my SJs and let the kiddos be in charge...  ;D
