Prep for first pellet cook

I took a few photos while preparing for the inaugural cook with my new pellet cooker. Photos of the cooked/cooking meat are still in the camera.

Scheduled to arrive between 5 and 8pm, the truck was pulling away as I got home around 4pm. I unpacked it, made dinner, then set to the assembly task.



The next day I finished assembly and conducted the initial burn-off:



Then I got some items ready for cooking-- fajita (skirt steak), a small pork loin, and a few snacks (bacon-wrapped scotch egg, ABT, breakfast sausage):

Looks like you are hitting the ground running! Nice looking grill there, can't wait to see how the food turned out.

Great Start How did it come out?

That Memphis Advantage is one beautiful grill; All stainless! Congrats.

Looking good, keep us posted on how it turned out.

@BP: Food turned out good. It's clear though I need to make some adjustments in my cooking compared to my old ceramic cooker-- it took longer to get things done compared to what I'm used to. I think once I get temperature settings dialed in I'll be fine.

My experience was exactly that; it takes a little bit of time to figure out the quirks of a new cooker. Then you turn the corner and you are Happy Street.
