Hi, my name is John, I live in Calif, unfortunately. Sure wish I lived in Texas. best state in the Union! Not gonna be able to move, anchored by Family which is OK, I'm thankful to have a good family.
I’ve been doing BNQ with Pitboss now for I don't know six or eight years. I had an 850, went to an1100, gave those to my son and got a Titan from Academy Sports last year. Had to drive to El Paso to pick it up because Acaddmy will not sell or shipped to Calif. won't touch them with a 10 foot pole . But it was worth every mile!!! It's performed flawlessly and I feel kind of bad because boy I read somebody's comments and problems other people have had and I don't know how I lucked out, but I did . If you can get one that works it's wonderful but damn, taking the risk and seeing how you get treated by Pitboss if it doesn't work out, well how can I encourage anyone to buy one in that case case?
I am 70, retired Military, Navy, submarines, and spent 30 years working for Chevron - absolutely best company there is, I had a blast there was very well taken care of!
I am laid up right now, have been for about a year. Got two legs jacked for two different reasons, but end result is I can do about 30 feet on a walker, so hoping to get better but yeah, it sucks.
Plenty of time to watch YouTube videos though, think about barbecuing! Really looking to get into briskets, I have been watching Steve Gow over on YT, Smoke Trails BBQ, - that guy has made some amazing inroads on cooking brisket, holding and rendering fat, really impressive stuff. I'd encourage anyone to take a look at him!
I'm looking forward to being part of the family here and seeing what I can learn about Pitboss, BBQ and share a few ideas maybe!
