So I was at a garage sale over the weekend and a man was uncovering an interesting looking oven thingy with a stainless top as I walked up and I must have been staring at it because he started telling me I needed it.. I asked if it worked and he said "sure" we plugged it in and it got warm so I bought it having no idea at the time what it even was for sure.but it looked almost brand new and he said he had only used it a couple times and just wanted it out of his garage. I thought it may work good as a warming oven on my trailer I take around for church functions and such.
Got it home and checked it out closer and it is a Cookshack 008 born 8-25-05... Sorry guys but it still didn't mean too much to me until I started doing some research on it....I have burned several ricks of wood every year for many many years in my offset smoker but have never thought of owning an electric smoker....now it seems I'm going to learn to use one! I'll be trolling around finding all the information I can on these little things and figuring out some tricks for them.
The cover he pulled off of it was the original cover that I found out aren't cheap themselves!
Bet I can still use it as a warmer too! Now to figure out a battery and inverter setup to put on my trailer to run it off the grid.
And to think I almost passed it up for what he was wanting for it because I had no idea what it was.......I paid $20 for this little gem.. Now I'm excited I bought it!!
