Do they ever run specials on the Blackstones?

Yes...I've seen them on sale at Walmart and Tractor Supply recently
I have a 36" 4 burner and love it.

"once I get it to the right temp (takes a little while)"....that's the babysitting I'm talking about

Tonight’s burn.. Thick. “Grilled”. Pork chops.
Just pulled from the RecTec. 150* internal.

Speaking of RecTec. I did my first max temp cook the other day. Doing the sear on a Picanha roast. The powder coat on the upper corner of the lid blistered in several places. There was no fire and the grill reached about 525. I sent a warranty claim to Rectec. The CS guy asked for pictures and I sent them. He said they usually didn't honor cosmetic claims but out of the goodness of his heart he would send me a new lid. He sent it overnight. I was a little miffed that he said that but at the end of the day he honored their warranty.

I’ve heard that before on the RecTec forum. I’ve had mine 5-6yrs and have done several max temps and never had an issue. Max temp Ive gotten was 575.

No smoker. But I will be building a brick grill; working on the design, my own design, and see how it will be set.

I still use a 26 inch weber with wood charcoal, no brickettes. I set it up in the morning and walk away. I have a Trager someone gave me, but I just prefer the taste of the burning wood charcoal. Talk about simple. And I can grill on it when not using it as a smoker. I put the charcoal on one side with a fine wire mesh below so the smaller pieces don't fall through the grate.

I just do not get the "recteq" cult following here

Probably because it's a Georgia-based company.
