Three years with FEC100

I'm coming up on two years. I've tripped the high limit switch a couple of times, but I'm not even sure it was on the same smoker.

Once I had an internal fire that I didn't even know I'd had until I opened the door and found the bottom of the door gasket burned out (didn't effect the Que). I had already ordered some replacements so it was a five minute or less repair. Should never have tried for 40lbs of leg quarters on three grills.

I've never regretted the purchase, and when I win the lottery, I'll go for one of the big boy FECs.

Ditto - when I hit the lotto I'm going to make the worlds greatest meat eatery (it will barely break even,... or maybe not...).

I have had my 100 for five years and still loving it.

I have shared your comments with everyone at Cookshack -- I know I speak for them when I tell you how much we appreciate hearing how much people like our products!

Thanks for the remarks. We work hard to build a quality product. I sold the first FE100 ten years ago. It's still in use today.

I got mine in June 2001... Still works like a champ that she is...

I got my first one used from Dr BBQ in 2005 and it is fantastic. And my new IQ4 is a champ also.

And I'm not giving either of them up!

There's hardly a weekend that I don't use me FEC100....right now I'm smoking 87 pounds of butts. Smokin' and everyone else has contributed so much! I have only (knock on wood) two smokes that ended in (lets throw it out)...brisket and I left the beans under the butts waaaaaaaaaaay to long (my brother called and that's good for 3 to 4 hours lol). I'm sooooooooo satisfied with my 100 and the food it turns out. Thanks to everyone who makes this possible!

Love to hear those reports!

I have had mine since I think 2004ish, somewhere is there.....and would give away my left big toe before I parted with mine....just now starting to get some work in competitions....and not a hitch....well, minus the flood in Fairbanks....but, that is a story unto itself....

Still cooking on my FE100, though not as much lately. It actually has sat in carport for last six months without getting turned on, full of pellets. Did a case of butts last night, just put on four huge briskets, ribs going on about 11am tomorrow.

Doing our annual bbq for the University of Oregon offensive line, lots of real big boys. Dinner is scheduled for 5:30 tomorrow and the FE is running without a burp.

Thanks Eddy, I love you man!!!!
