Here I thought you were asking about the actual street in Memphis.
Here I thought you were asking about the actual street in Memphis. Check with gtsum2 in a private message as he bought from a dealer in TX somewhere that has great pricing delivered anywhere in USA. Several guys here have bought an Elite from the dealer without issue at a steal of a price.

There is an online dealer is selling this model for $ 1,699.00. Smoke, grill, bake, roast and searConvection oven cooking180 to 550 degreesCooking surface 575 to 848 sq. in. (optional grate kit)Cloud based WiFi to monitor and manage your meal from anywhere12 lb pellet hopper capacityCabinet for storage spaceOpen flame optionAs a Memphis grill owner I have to wonder if the company has decided to no longer emphasize their premium grill line.
Also, they are not offering 304 stainless steel as option. "Two models: Available in all 430 stainless steel or stainless and porcelain combination". It is hard to tell from the few photos, but it looks like the hopper is on the side, implying the whole hopper, auger and firepot of the current Memphis line has been drastically changed. Now looks similar to most side mounted hopper assembly designs. As Memphis is not showing this model on their site, I am also guessing the Beale Street model is only being sold through distributors.
Hmmm. Dug all over that site, but could not find any reference. Here is a photo from one of the online dealers showing a bit more of the inside.
