50 pounds, I am not sure it is a small or a big stuff.

Lenexa. That's Evo's backyard. 6.2 miles in a straight line from the UPS Hub to Evo's home.

There should be no excuse for it not to get here Monday!

Hopefully Evo Child will return my camera today so I can post pictures when it gets here. She's been evading my requests to return it. She has a much better digital camera. At least she HAD a better camera. She finally admitted she doesn't know where all of my treasured Christmas DVDs she borrowed are.

I duz happy dance, too! Tell her to leave the camera in your car when she returns that! She can send the debit card to me. I'll keep it warm.


for a small fee.

Smoker should arrive right on BD!

Evo, you should heat that puppy right up to drive out the (inevitable) mineral oils on the metal surfaces. Let it cool down, wipe the surfaces with a high smoke-point vegetable oil (peanut would be my choice) and heat it up again to "cure" the metals. That way, your first few forays into smoking won't be spoiled with subtle "off" tastes.

Absolutely! For initial "break-in", I would heat it up slowly over several hours to it's max temp while loaded with smoke chips (slow heat-up to minimize thermal stress on the elements and create smoke to sweep it clean).

Yep, it needs to be broken in.
