Smokey Joe Meet and Greet!
« on: July 29, 2013, 03:28:20 PM »
This evening I had a Smokey Joe meet and greet with Ed.  I wish it could have gone on longer.  He brought over 4 of his older small ones (2 Galley Ques and two straight leg Smokey Joe's).  Yes, the old straight leg red is the one advertised on Craigslist in Arizona a few months back.

Anyway, I am an average photographer (at best) but hope you enjoy the pictures!

Dude!  That is out-effin-standing...
I've always had gas...  And now a bunch of kettles because of this place.  Thanks!

Thanks for sharing Harris. Do you have a favorite? Did any of them get hot? Believe it or not I like the black galley the most. There is just something right about that tiny vent on top. :D

The black Smokey Joe really stood out to me.  The metal handle along with the straight legs caught my attention.  I wonder how old it is?  Maybe mid 1960's????

It is funny, Ed had other items in the back of his vehicle I recognized from local Craigslist.  He is a machine....

I just realized why I was thinking those offset handled SJs looked vaguely familiar: they are nearly identical to curling stones! Perhaps a new winter sport emerges from WKC. Find a frozen lake, skid a few SJs across the ice, have a few Labatt's and cook up some Perch. Nice way to spend an afternoon.

Oh wait, maybe the winner gets the losers' Joe! (Do kettles have pink slips?)

Terrific display there folks !!!!!

Ice, We have no ice in Cali.. Maybe a lil snow in the mountains.. The only ICE is in my glass.  8)

Excuse my ignorance, but what is a Straight Leg Joe?

Jo, it's the SJ with stick legs in the pics and not the bent metal kind. Pics 2 3 and 5 shows it the best
