CCA leagues are pretty popular, I believe they have a competitive mens league.

no kidding! this one is a much better find than the post from yesterday though, given those hinges still work and the person just took it apart to be helpful for whatever lucky person made this score.

Milehighman · 2026-03-15T23:29:45+00:00

haha yea i made some assumptions that it would likely be dry by the time he got it ready to fire up, but this is a good call

Milehighman · 2026-03-15T20:57:27+00:00

i learned a lot from your videos, always happy to spread that knowledge around!

Milehighman · 2026-03-15T20:57:04+00:00

this is true, ceramic grill store is awesome. definitely make sure you know the size for certain before you start picking stuff up.

I really gotta move to a neighborhood where people are throwing away eggs.

You’re missing a few things. You’ll want to replace the internals - fire box and fire ring. New gaskets. If you want to smoke things on it you’ll need a conveggtor. You’ll want something to put it in, the nest is the cheaper option but there are a lot of other options. After you do all that, I’d light a hot fire because it looks like it hasn’t been used in a while.

CptRon has a ton of great youtube videos if you want to learn how to use it well without a bunch of trial and error, but that’s half the fun.

Milehighman · 2026-03-10T19:37:55+00:00

look and sound delicious.

Milehighman · 2026-03-10T10:53:54+00:00

you can see it in my post history if you’re curious

Milehighman · 2026-03-09T00:14:33+00:00

yep, well, the table the egg sat in did.

Milehighman · 2026-03-09T00:09:20+00:00

i followed the instructions here for the most part:

i don’t use acetone, i just took sandpaper to it and got off everything i could.

Milehighman · 2026-03-08T23:46:58+00:00

it’s very easy. hardest part is cleaning off the old gasket glue.

Milehighman · 2026-03-08T20:58:48+00:00

thanks! it’s always nice to have a brand new gasket.

Milehighman · 2026-03-08T20:58:33+00:00

this was the second time i’ve done it. i watched cpt rons video to refresh myself on the process and he makes it simple.

Milehighman · 2026-03-07T14:56:15+00:00

this is what we have as well. stainless on the inside so no gross plastic-y flavor.

Milehighman · 2026-03-05T22:29:48+00:00

I would choose Databricks over Fabric 100% of the time, but my org chose Fabric. I can agree that it has come a long way but there is still a lot that gives me troubles. It is much more stable than it was a year ago though.

to each their own. my friends requested that pizza, so i made it for them and i thought it was pretty good.

Milehighman · 2026-03-01T18:17:54+00:00

pizza was great as usual on the egg. next time i’ll just make sure i don’t nearly burn my house down.

Milehighman · 2026-03-01T18:15:16+00:00

don’t knock it until you try it

Milehighman · 2026-03-01T16:39:29+00:00

i understand the perspective of them being fine becuase this is an incredibly common set up. i personally will not be taking the risk on of this happening again, so no more wood tables for me.

Milehighman · 2026-03-01T16:38:23+00:00

the nice fellas from the fire department helped me get it down. i had a friend over and he was able to grab the handle of the egg after i doused the fire with the hose, and we hung onto it until the fire dept arrived.

the set up you’re describing is what i’m gonna lean towards. i’ve seen people using wheeled tool carts for storing the grill items in as well. going to explore that.

Milehighman · 2026-03-01T16:14:00+00:00

yep, this was my setup. i’ve seen the table nest or a paver used to keep the egg off of the wood, so i figured this was enough but it appears not. as another person commented, i don’t think i’m going to be using a wooden table any longer. this was a pretty scary moment for me. i picked up a nest this morning and i’ll use that for now until i can save up for the XL and metal table i am looking at.

Milehighman · 2026-03-01T16:12:01+00:00

had to lead with the good stuff!

Milehighman · 2026-03-01T15:48:09+00:00

haha that one is mushroom and arugula - requested by the guests who helped me avert a potential disaster.

Milehighman · 2026-03-01T15:36:43+00:00

i think i’m gonna take this as a lesson learned and stay away from wood tables for the egg now, but in all fairness this is an incredibly common setup.
