Great video. Thanks for the mods recommendations. I just bought mine and this video helps a lot.

I live in northern Michigan been trying to find one for a year. Any help would be great thanks again Kirk.

Nice video and appreciate your thoughts on the smoker. In one of the pics, it almost looked like you lined the bottom of the cooking chamber in foil. Did I see that correctly? Curious if the wagon wheels wobble on you? I’ve seen these at bucees and the wheels wobbled like crazy. Made me wonder how long they would last.

Great video thanks for sharing! I've been looking at purchasing this smoker. Couple of big changes stand out to me looking your smoker vs other G2 smokers in other older video's. First as you pointed out the rails are full length and top rack is bigger. Other big change I see is the collector being wider, almost full length of the cooking compared to smaller collector width in other G2 video's. Couple of nice improvements in a short amount of time from Old Country IMO. If the thing was just a tad bigger as the cooking space (minus the top rack) is tad less than my Okie Joe and the Brazos. I suppose I could cook some ribs up top but that tends to always be way hotter.

Can't help but wonder why they didn't make the barrel as big as the braso
