Pullstart 62,831 #1 Posted July 29 What a cool place! “Unionville” is the show grounds, in Symco, but Unionville is physically larger than the town! It was so great to be there! My truck might have another 900 miles on the ticker, I’d have to look. We drove down through Chicago and met with the Dino to pick up this awesome 702, I dubbed “Steve-O-Two”. I mowed the patio at camp, then removed the deck and did some cleaning on it and tightened up the steering a bit. 2 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pullstart 62,831 #5 Posted July 29 Another new to me toy this weekend was a Green Mountain Grills “Davey Crockett” smoker. We wired up and used the 702 cigarette lighter for a maiden voyage 6 hour smoke and managed to fit 3 racks of ribs in it. Saturday night dinners are a customary “bring a rack of ribs and a side dish” and pig out! 4 9 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Achto 27,562 #17 Posted July 29 (edited) Great pictures !!! I will try to get some posted when I get home from work. I'm glad Mr. & Mrs. Pullstart were able to come the show and have a good time. My wife & I have pretty much celebrated our wedding anniversary at this show for the last 21yrs. For our 25th anniversary, we decided that we would like to renew our vows at the Unionville church on the show grounds. Kevin officiated the ceremony for us and did a most excellent job. Informal with a little humor yet staying mostly traditional. Thank you again Kevin, this meant a lot to Gretel & I. Edited July 29 by Achto 3 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Green Mountain Davey Crockett is a great little smoker. I also have a Recteq Bullseye 380 that I use more for everyday grilling. It is great for reverse searing steaks, burgers, and wings. Riot mode gets to 750º F. It will also get low enough to smoke ribs and such. I use hickory cook in pellets for both. https://cookinpellets.com/. I also found these nifty pellet storage containers on Amazon. Each hold about 20 lbs of pellets. https://a.co/d/gBHg0Ic 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
