Hey M.W.!

I sent them an email inquiring as to status on Saturday but I'm assuming that they wouldn't respond until today sometime...I'll check my AOL email when I get home after work to verify.

Thanks for the info on Jack's - to bad they are Western WA, I"m moving to Spokane either this year or next - would have been nice if they were closer!

Got home in time to see UPS driving away....Chez Bubba delivers!
Got my 3 boxes of wood pucks (Maple/Mesquite/Special blend) and 1 bag o' bubba pucks!

Thanks Kirk!  (3 days from Indiana to California!!) it don't get better than that![:D]

America's Best BBQ responded today that "FedEx will notify me via email when they ship and expected delivery date"  they further said: "normal delivery is 10-15 days"...they didn't say from when though...maybe from the date FedEx ships???  It is now day 7...[:(]

Allright!  That's downright mean![:D]

When did you order yours?  From whom?  I probably read it somewhere here in one of these posts...

Let me know how the chicken turns out - that will be one of my first projects when I get mine...someday...boohoo!

Ya think if next time I check into a hotel & they ask "Smoking or Non", they would mind?

Yes it does Kirk...anyone reading the post will surely wonder if $10 bucks is worth it all!  But, that's what I promised to do - post my experience so others can learn from it!

Feb 04, 2004...9 days...

Got home today...found a FedEx door tag...said they tried to deliver my smoker but since I wasn't home, they couldn't leave it of course...so.....now I've signed the paper and hopefully, they'll leave it on 2/5/04....

Fuzzy,

Looks like you picked the wrong screen name. Linus is looking more appropriate.[;)][:D]

Hey Big Fuzz,

Just wanted to let you know that <s>Americas Best</s> is off my referance list.  I feel bad for ya.  Just think a life that is on hold and not being enriched by a BS.  That is painful.  I enjoy this little black box to no end.  You must try making your own bacon (this was something I never thought I could do) it is fairly easy and down right great.  Give us some pictures when you get that thing seasoned in well.

Hey, do any duck hunting out there??
