I am surprised that is it still around,  that is a smoking deal (Little pun intended).  I have a #7 and it is a great cooker.  If you do get it, make sure the damper (Top hat thing) moves freely.  Mine got stuck and the top spider broke out, so I am trying to figure out how to fix it.

 I would buy this one to replace it, if I did not already have the XL BGE.

Do they really come painted that way?  Pretty ugly.

Dave, I think you should buy it anyway.  It'll go well with your new Traeger.

Dean, that is not paint it is a tile.   It is one of their custom tiled Kamado and cost more than the original 1x1 tiles that are standard. 


Here is a really bad picture of mine, with the standard tiles.  It is the red thing hiding behind the Stump's (that appears to be on life support  ;D )

That's the real deal with the custom tiles...the most expensive #7 Kamado you can get. It is a heckuva deal and would cost $1568 before shipping if you bought it directly from Kamado. As much as I'd like to, I really don't need it, but hopefully one of the AZ Barbecue scoops it up. I swear by them for everything from searing steaks @ 800 degrees to overnight slow smoking @ 225 for 10 hours without reloading charcoal. The only drawback to them is that they are a pain to take to competitions. But if you have room in your yard for a piece of art that can cook, buy it ASAP.

By the way, I cooked on an identical red Kamado at a Kamado Kookoff in Sacramento a few years ago. There were over 30 contestants and I'm proud to say I won. The only drawback to using a bright red cooker is that it drew spectators like flies and they kept wanting to open it up and see how it worked. By the way, I won a #9 mosaic Kamado for my efforts and the shipping was as much as what this guy is asking for his #7.

Mark was that in 02??  I can't remember if you or Kim won the one time I cooked there.  It was the first time I had ever cooked in any kind of cookoff.

  It was fun, but the catagories kept moving and changing and not really what I would call Certified Judges.  Not even a blind turn in. 

I took mine from San Jose on a rented U Haul and I never unloaded it, as they had several there to use at the park.  Did some damage to the K though during the round trip.

That's what i've been looking for and gave up and bought the XLBGE. I love the Red Tile. Matches my Spicewine and Charbroiler and my Trucks and my Super FAST Thermopen.  :-\

I believe that was in '02. Glenn Butler won the following year and surprised everyone with his beer butt chicken with boobs. He slid lemon halves until the skin and made the perkiest chicken you ever did see!  ::)

He still has it and I'm going to see it this mourning. I see a problem transporting it w/o damage. It is 9" taller than my XL Egg in the nest.  :-\
