    Driving home from work this afternoon, I spied with my little eye some kind of portable barbeque. [Smoker? I was driving....]. It was a large barrel type device, with a smaller barrel appended to the back, all on a red trailer. Barrel's maybe 4 1/2 feet long. Saw a dial [presumably for thermometer] sticking out the side. Asking price was $3200.00. It was parked out in front of a hardware store on Irving Park Rd. just east of Pulaski. Don't know if it's good equipment or a good price, but maybe this is just what you need to make your home complete....

    That's a Brinkman BBQ Pit. I've heard its for sale. The price appears to have gone down in the last couple of weeks.

    Make sure the milk crates match. :P
    Buy it anyway and deal with the consequences later. That's what I did. Of course I entered a local BBQ contest and won a 56" screen TV for 1st place ribs 2 weeks later.

    The TV was delivered and barely fit down the stairs to the basement. I came home and my wife had QVC on the TV and the computer. :cry:

    I'd do the same thing but I only have enough milk crates for the Camaro.

    Hey Kman

    How's this for an idea? You buy a case of beer , I come over with my Sawzall and we convert the Camaro into a smoker(car). Everybody gets together,we all throw in a coupla bucks and send GWiv down to Peoria Packing for a pig.

    Just pick a date and put in on the events board. :wink:

    I had no problem convincing my wife that we should buy a large offset pit like that. I simply pointed out that I could be buried in it (preferably after I die) and that the pit cost far less and was far more useful than a fancy coffin.

    Even better, cremation, and then sell it. :) That's what my wife is going to do with me and mine.
