Title: New 800 Elite
Post by: silverbullet on February 02, 2018, 08:35:30 PM
Got a super buy on a Louisiana 800 Elite. Looking forward to many years of fun with this one. Hoping it cooks as good as it looks!

Super nice!  How much do those retail for?  Any idea what type of stainless is used on this unit?

They retail for $1.099.00 I got it for a couple hundred less because it's a 2017 model. And for just $100.00 more than he wanted for a LG700. Couldn't pass it up! Double wall construction, flame zone cooking. I'm pretty excited to start playing with it! I'm thinking Ribs & a Pie for Super Duper Sunday!

Yes, for sauces, gloves etc, The drawer is a grease drawer. No grease bucket on this model.

Does the grease drawer hold aluminum pans?

Good Idea! I haven't thought of that! Have to go to the dollar store & check what they have that will fit!

I know in the Memphis Elite that it has 3 separate trays.  The aluminum cake pans from Walmart fit almost perfect inside them.  Much easier to throw them out than scrape out of the SS pan.
