  • UPDATE

    The movers took it off of the pallet and removed the internals.  They still had a deuce of a time getting it down to the backyard patio.  The four-inch wheels dug into the soft sod so it was essentially carried by using straps over their shoulders.  They were astoundingly skilled.  I kept thinking that I thought my back was indestructible when I was their age.

    I've not cooked on the M-36 yet, or any other grill.  Back problem restrictions have kept me idle.  Door Dash will miss me when I'm closer to normal activity.

    EDIT:  Grammar

  • I remember looking at the website when you first mentioned them, looks like a nice unit.

    Looking at your signature, I wouldn't know what I wanted to cook on half the time.

    I have the odd-ball habit of sometimes shopping for something to cheer me up when I'm sad — I don't plan it but I recognize it in retrospect.  Anyway, soon after Marcia died of pancreatic cancer, I bought it off of the Internet without knowing anything about it except for a few videos on youtube.  Apparently, the larger the sadness the larger the purchase.

  • If you posted this earlier I sure missed it and am sorry I did not see it.  I am sorry to hear this, you always spoke so fondly of her, I know she is missed.

    This is my first mention of her dying.  I probably wouldn't have mentioned it but it was part of my decision making process so I included it.

    Thank you for your kind thoughts.

  • Have you assembled and used the M36 yet?  I was very impressed with their video. Lots of variations of use for it and built like a fortress. Anxious to see pics of it in action.

  • Our thoughts and prayers with you as well, sorry for your loss.

    I've had health issues that have kept me away from the outdoor cookers.  I did manage to light a few sticks to do a burn-in and seasoning.  I was impressed by the ease of maintaining clean smoke and a desired temperature.  Then I grilled a tiny pork tenderloin over charcoal in that 36-inch grill.  I didn't think either was worth your time to read about it.

    I'm in the process of moving so IDK when I'll have the time to do a long cook that may be of interest.

  • Hope things improve with the move as I would enjoy seeing photos too.  Like many on this site, you are a resource and a valued member!
