After getting a link from Chris Finney on this unit a couple weeks ago, and a long story about how I didn't get the one he got that day but found one on ebay for almost as good a price, mine came this past Thursday.
Assembly was very easy...even for me, Nick! :!: =D> It can be put on a tabletop or you can install the included legs and use it as a stand-alone stove. It has (2) 20,000 BTU burners. Well built and a steal for the $119 I paid for it. They say it retails for $300 or so but I have seen them on other sites for $200+ so not to bad for me!
Thursday night I grilled thighs on the Silver B and on the Lodge was also able to do Rice-A-Roni on one burner and snow peas tossed in EVOO and seasonings on the other burner. The entire dinner was cooked outside which is SWEET!!
The temp control is good but there is a nuance to it. The low on this unit is really like medium...after sliding the knob back like I was going to turn it off, the flame goes really low...like a true low for simmering and whatever...but you can't turn it to far down because it will shut-off. In any event, that is a minor drawback and it can be rectified by the method I described.
Also, if I get the nerve, I can light my chimney on this unit to, but I don't want to get it dirty with ash...ANAL, I know!! It comes with a 20lb propane regulator and hose ready to go but no cover. I went to Lowes and bought a $10.00 53" grill cover for it last night and it is now well protected from the rain and elements...Yes Nick, it will be in the attic with the WSM in the winter
HERE is a link to what it looks like and its description. I don't think Finney has used his yet but I liked the first time and will use it again tonight or tomorrow!
If you are looking for something like this...it is well worth the investment. Also, if you are a camper, this is right up your alley!!
