Went outside to use my Kamado and noticed that some sumbitch stole it! Haven’t used it in a few weeks, but it was always where I could see it at the side of the house. Guess I got so used to seeing it I didn’t notice when I didn’t.
Weighs about 250lbs, so it had to be at least 2 guys. I hope the bastids got a hernia!!
How low can you go in life to steal a man’s bbq? Good low-crime neighborhood, rarely ever see the cops drive through.
Slavyanka is more pissed than I am, because she loves what I can make on it.

Same thing happened to me, except they dropped it before they could get it to the end of the drive way, to their truck. Neighbor saw them from a distance at about midnight. The broken pieces had finger marks that slid from the bottom, up the sides where you could see that they lost their grip. They sped off when the loud crash hit the drive way.

I had a real nice heavy offset grill and smoker stolen from my shop years ago. Pizzed me right off. It was kind of unique so I kept my eye open for it for years. Never did turn up. Had to be someone that had been at my business and seen it. I did a few butts one Saturday afternoon and I finished up about dark. I didnt put it in the shop like usual as it was still hot. It was setting out of site of the road but not locked up. Bastids stole it that night. I went back Sunday AM to clean it out and move it inside. Gone…..
Life can be rough on us dreamers.

I found another one, cheap. Needs a new felt seal and some tlc, but overall it's in great shape.
I've put it at my buddy's shop for the winter. I'll clean it up there to get it ready for spring and build a table for it. He's got lots ash, oak and black walnut I can use so the table will be heavy as hell, too. Then I'll chain the Kamado to the table, and the table to a big stump at the end of my carport.
I can't put it behind the house because I'm on a corner lot and only a 10' backyard. And it's a PITA to have to go all the way around the house to get to it.

Sorry to hear about your cooker being stolen.
I may not be smart but I can lift heavy objects
I have a shotgun so I have no need for a 30-06.....

That is low. Stealing anything is low. But stealing a mans outdoor cooker warrants the death penalty.

Sorry to for the bad news. It’s a shame that people Don’t realize that this is from hard earned money of the Families. Don’t think about family time cooking together. Stealing leads to more until you get caught. Hope all can afford to replace
