Knows what a fatty is.
Hats off to Shirley Fabrication for a job well done!
It's Christmas morning in January! My smoker arrived today and I couldn't be more ecstatic. First and foremost thanks to Paul, Tyler, and whomever was involved in the creation of this masterpiece. I was up most of the night waiting for it to arrive and when it finally did I want straight to work seasoning it and getting ready for some smoky food. After a few hours of playing with dampers, vents, and daisy wheels, it was time for meat.
I have never cooked on such an awesome machine. The fire control and stability of this cooker is second to none. The finish work is near flawless. It was made the exact way we discussed and then some. I have a few pics to share now but will have more soon.
In the past, I would have never considered spending as much money as I did without doing an in person inspection. My initial plan was to fly out to Tuscaloosa, but after doing research and speaking to Paul, I realized that I did not need to waste a trip out there. The reputation of Shirley Fabrication precedes itself and for good reason. I couldn't have more positive things to say about my experience. Throughout the process I felt as though I was dealing with an old friend. Paul went so far out of his way to make this the best cooker money could buy. You can tell when a builder takes pride in their work and these guys do!
I am extremely pleased with my smoker and look forward to feasting on lots of smoked meat in the years to come. :clap2:
