Just picked up this bad boy

Post by jjjones »

Hey Guys,

Long time lurker of the Kamado section. I recently last year joined the Pellet Grill club with a GMG DB.
But didn't like the fact that pellet grills suck at grilling...

Found this bad boy Primo Jr and table for $300. Came with deflector plates and holders, divider and 1 extended rack.
No cracks in the ceramic.

Did a test burn and she seems to get up to temp extremely fast. Only took like 15mins for her to reach 550F.

She'll primarily be used for high temperature cooks, i may test the waters with low and slow but i have my pellet grill for that.

Plans for her is a new gasket and eventually restore the table.

Cheers mate.

Yeah, she was on gumtree for a while but i wasn't sure if i wanted it or not (even though i know it was a good deal). I really wanted the Primo XL.

Me and a mate a few weeks before that was able to pick up a mint Pirmo XL with the stainless steel cart and accessories for $800... so after that i had my heart set on an XL.

But the Jr is a lot bigger than i imagined. Only ever seen the XLs in real life so I assumed it was as big as those Kamado Joe Jr(which seem extremely small). But the grilling surface area i would say is as big as a Weber baby q. So plenty of room for steaks/snags.
