Sorry I didn't post this sooner.
# The “Log Lighter” is awesome; I can get a good fire going in 10 – 15 minutes, no problem, the “Log Lighter” does not burn as clean as the "Preheat Burner" but works fine for propane use only.
# The "Preheat Burner" does a great job as well; I was able to get the RF from 85° (ambient) to 275° in 10 minutes on medium. The nice thing about these propane pipe burners is they are removeable.
# The "propane pipe burner controls" are easy to reach and adjust.
# The "ball valves" are nice, I have unlimited control over air flow volume and direction.
# The "rear air intake" is a nice option for running higher temperatures.
# It seems to have good draft, no problem getting a good TBS (Thin Blue Smoke).
# "Heavy Duty fire grate" made from 1/2" rebar will hold up to anything I throw at it.
# The "slide out utility tub" and "slide out steamer pans" shelf is awesome, I can keep everything organized in these tubs for my future cooks.
# The "propane lantern" is a nice feature, its actually a keepsake from a friend who passed away and every time I look at the lantern I smile.
# The steel rod holding up the lantern is from the crib my three kids were in.
# In addition to the lantern is an "LED Desktop lamp" that throws some decent light, sorry no pics of the lamp.
# I am installing "GFI Outlet" for running some juice to "Frank".
# The "12" x 70" table" offers more than enough prep area to do various smokes. The wood I used for the table also has sentimental value, its wood from my fathers workshop in his shed, I have a lot of fond memories of working in that shed, I held on to it for years swearing that I would use it for something. I believe it is mahogany and I am told it came from the old Schmidt's Brewery, all you older Philadelphians would remember the brewery.
# The "RVQ gas grill" on the side is nice to throw on a few quick burgers or hot dogs, I think I will be installing a needle valve on the grill, the flame is either low or high can't seem to find that perfect setting. I MAY REPLACE THIS WITH A SIDE BURNER
# The "cutting board" is nice to have permanently mounted.
# "Trivet Tile" works great for placing hot pans on table.
# The "Wood storage" is adequate.
# The 2" "Ball Valve Drain" is a breeze to use.
# The five "Probe access" holes are more than enough and easy to use.
# The "utensil hooks" are easy to reach but out of the way.
# The"Mop Bottle hook" sticks out a tad, but is functional.
# Recently added a "paper towel holder"
# Added 3 new "Tru Temp thermometers".
# Added a new "stow away saute pan".
# Fire basket for better fire management.
