Excellent. It should reach equilibrium on the baking steel better than my convection oven at home. I really bought this to smoke before SV, but I am also really excited for some pizza making and bread baking! Oh god, I have no idea how to delete that other post on mobile. Sigh. Haha.

I am in Northwest Connecticut (Torrington, specifically). About 2.5 hours to Boston.

Hey there! New user here (have been lurking for awhile) just bought my first Kamado grill (Akorn), pretty excited to give it a maiden voyage. I will probably use this in conjunction with immersion circulator quite a bit in the future. Does anyone here have a baking steel? Curious to see how the performance of a baking steel is affected by this type of grill.

That's a shame, I have a feeling it is probably harder to move charcoal powered products where I am (Connecticut) in the winter, and for some reason, Walmart seems to moves items to clearance based on how long it takes to sell a UPC. Warmer regions probably don't have the same sale droughts on outdoor items (grills, weed whackers, etc), so it's probably a lot less likely to be a clearance item there. The crazy thing is, I will put money on them restocking these grills around April-May in the Northeast, right back at $288. Makes more sense to let them take up room on a shelf than to let them go for 50%+ discounts. But, their loss is our gain I suppose.

Char-Griller 16620 Akorn Kamado Kooker - $139.00 @ Walmart SKU# 40267083 (ref: Amazon Link) Use the link below to search in your local area. I purchased one last night at my Walmart, but of course, your milage may vary. According to CamelCamelCamel the price has never been lower than $232.61 from Amazon. Solid deal on an entry level Kamado, or another backup. https://brickseek.com/walmart-inventory-checker?sku=40267083
