veryzer Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 Hello All, I live in Illinois which just declared a shelter in place, so I took the opportunity to buy a KJ Classic II from the Atlanta Grill Company for 20% off, along with a joetisserie and pizza stone....I'm not messing around. It should help me pass the time when it arrives in about a week. I'm an inveterate researcher so this wasn't a capricious purchase for me. I've done the comparison shopping, watched several of Mr. Setzler's videos, etc. because this is a lot of money for me. Anyhow, any tips or sources to hasten my progress would be appreciated. (I also ordered a cover, onlyfire ash basket, and the cookbook by Chris Grove.)

adam319 Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 Welcome. You are going to have a lot of fun. Check out Johns videos on running the grill. Stock up on lump charcoal, salt and pepper and have fun. lnarngr and veryzer 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keeperovdeflame Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Well Sir, confined as we may be, there is no law (I know of) that stops us from eating well. Enjoy your new grill and. the forum conversation as well. You will learn, through experience, that a Kamado is a truly wonderful cooking device. Your purchase. while, without a doubt, was expensive will pay you back in spades. I truly doubt anyone here will contest that Kamado truth. Welcome and happy cooking. veryzer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lnarngr Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Here's my favorite thing about kamado cooking: IT'S FUN! You will want to cook stuff for the sake of cooking and getting it right. With guidance from this site you will get it right. The kamado will enable you to prepare wonderful meals. So many delicious things you can make. Have Fun! veryzer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veryzer Posted March 22, 2020 Author Share Posted March 22, 2020 Thanks for the warm welcome, folks. It's being shipped from the factory, so I'm not sure when I'll get it (whether they're shipping right now). Scott Roberts 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
