The Hunt for Capacity

Well it's only been a year, but I feel like I need more room on the BBQ pit again.  You see, I'd been cooking on a Big Green Egg & a Bubba Keg but I continually needed more space that I just couldn't get with the kamado platform. 

Don't get me wrong, I love my Big Green Egg and am a huge advocate.  In fact, I often do demonstrations for the local dealer and have sold an untold number for them and to friends and family who have acquired one since I did. 

The problem is, when you start turning out good BBQ folks begin to ask you to cook for a variety of events.  I cooked for a good friend's retirement party, a wedding reception, numerous office luncheons, and last year a local fund raiser.

Now I suppose I could say no but the truth is that I get a kick out of providing good BBQ to folks and seeing their reaction.  Maybe I'm just an egomaniac but I figure as long as I have the ability to cook for these events, why not?  Hey, it keeps me off the streets!

So while I'd love to have a big Ole Hickory pit mounted on a trailer, that's probably not gonna happen given that I can't park a rig like that in my yard.  I can however continue to go vertical.  My Backwoods cooker does a great job in a footprint that fits nicely in my garage.  Luckily, there are several larger cookers from Backwoods that fit in only a slightly larger footprint. 

I've located a Pro Jr. from Backwoods that I'm trying to acquire.  That should double my capacity and hold me for awhile!  :)

I'll keep you posted and in the meantime, let me kow if you're interested in a slightly used Backwoods Fatboy.

Cheers,
Braddog

Brad,
Have you looked into something like a Tucker Cooker? Relatively small foot print, very versatile and decently priced. www.tuckercooker.com George and Holly are great folks and I'm sure they could help you out.
