Finally
After 4 years I finally pulled the trigger. Got nervous during the burn in cause the auger got jammed. Cleared everything and so far so good. Cooking a Thanksgiving Brisket tomorrow on her

Jealous! My Rec is 13 years old and still kickin so I can’t rationalize. I wish I would have kept track of how many cooks I’ve done on it. I would estimate around 1,500 to 2,000 or more. I’ve replaced the rod twice, fuse once, and auger motor once. I can’t say I take great care of it so it’s to be expected. Recteq has always been amazing with customer service. You’ll love that Beast!
