grilling Always a good day to grill

Well just pulled the trigger and ordered my own Traeger Texas Elite Smoker today. Cant wait till it gets here. I can already see many happy memories we will create together. Oooh.. Its sleek design an elegance.. Hubba hubba!  I have a feeling the other half may get jealous with me spending more time with my smoker than her. I guess its true, the fastest way to a man heart is through his stomach. :drooling:

welcome to the Pelletheads club brada!!!
 
Here we go... 7hrs in.. Did not get a chance to get a pic of the final. Got too busy hauling it out, setting it up under the heating lamps and carving it up for the hungry. I'll see if someone else has got a pic and post it later if they do.

While the grill is going  cooking up chunks of beef. I think it was like 20 whole roast chunks total. Kinda lost count.

Doing the work. Wow ... I'm sure a lot of folks got to appreciate all that Q!
Lots of volunteers today. Everyone was busy from the kitchen to the outside deep fryers, grills, woks and the whole works. Always nice getting together with family and friends for a feast.

I can not wait to see some more pics. That is a true thing of beauty. I would climb into that grill and have you shut the door.
It got a tad bit cold now and then though out the day. I wanted to climb in the grill myself.
