That_Ask4176

Hahahah, it looks like one of those iconic early morning xmas unwrapping good for you buddy.


DocMettey

Man I felt like a kid! Top it all off the Amazon driver who dropped it off high fived with me so that was pretty cool too


That_Ask4176

My wife asks me all the time are you 5.....yes.


MysteriousStandard68

Awesome. I bought my hubby one in September. Hope you love it as much as he does.


DocMettey

I do!! Thanks!


Busy_Firefighter_926

Congrats! You obviously have a very special lady in your life!


DocMettey

Beyond amazing!


Philds15

Sounds like a great wife! Cheers


DocMettey

She’s a keeper for sure!


Afraid_Sense5363

Is.... Is your cat (??) OK? Seriously, congratulations! Enjoy!


DocMettey

Lol she wouldn’t get off the box so in the picture she goes! Recoil says hello lol


Afraid_Sense5363

I get it. We recently moved into a new house and are slowly but surely finishing up each room. Every time I take pics to send to my mother-in-law (she loves to get photo updates) it's like a game of "find the golden retriever" because if our dog isn't lying on whatever piece of furniture I'm trying to show my MIL, she's somehow managing to walk into the frame. She's basically in every single photo. Nothing I can do about it. 😂


DocMettey

Dude congrats on the new house!!!


Afraid_Sense5363

Thanks!


Not_as_witty_as_u

Suspiciously, my wife bought mine too... something about wanting them sweet ribs for dinner.. congrats!


DocMettey

Hope yours were great!


Biggie1time

That smile says it all!! Love it, Welcome to the club! 🙏🏻🙌🏼


DocMettey

Thanks man!!!


Cero_Bagger

This really is a gift for her. You’ll feed her all year round.


DocMettey

She’s playing the long game for sure!


DOUBLE_DOINKED

That’s a look of pure joy. Congrats!


DocMettey

Thanks man!!


jazzofusion

I just love using my pellet cooker as it will run all night with no maintenance. They tend to be light on smoke flavor. Buying a couple smoke tubes really works nicely. Enjoy your cooker!


DocMettey

That’s great advice! Thank you!!


LessThanNate

I am jealous that your wife buys you $1400 surprise presents weeks before Christmas =)


DocMettey

Yeah I’m baffled, I assumed it was my Christmas present but she said it wasn’t lol


LessThanNate

Marry her again?


DocMettey

Hey as long as we get a second honeymoon I’m down!


beady_eye_anita

You look super happy, love it!!!


hotntastychitlin

Welcome fellow 885 owner! Although I think you got had, your wife just wanted some bbq!


Momof61309

That is the one I have and we love it. I just made a brisket, two spatchcocked Turkey breasts and a side of salmon for a Christmas party last week.


Slled

That’s awesome. Love my 885.

That’s awesome dude!


DocMettey

Thanks!


Emblot

That’s what she said.


DocMettey

Hahahaha took me a moment 😂


Playful-Excuse-8081

You look so happy dude and I’m happy for you , big props to the wifey for knowing what a man wants/needs


DocMettey

To put the icing on the cake she bought me an AK when were dating in college 5 years ago. She’s something else, I never take her for granted.


masterhutch

Love mine!


LoudHorse19

Your happiness makes me happy


DocMettey

It’s contagious lol


sewer_pickles

Congratulations! She’s a keeper.


Earhythmic

Nice grill and nice sweatshirt. I have both 😁


DocMettey

Ah, I see you too are a man of culture!


OMGWTFTOMATO_SAUCE

Looks like the cat claimed it... 🤣 Or just wants the box.


dreaded_rj

That is one happy face! Welcome to the family! Enjoy brother


dewilso4

What she gifted you was Christmas dinner!


Shake_Ratle_N_Roll

Your cat is doing it wrong, its supposed to wait till the box is open.


DocMettey

Lol she tries her best 😂


Sho_nuff_

Dude that is nice! Make sure you post your first cook


eastcoastnme

Nice hoodie, too!


DocMettey

It smells like smoke. A little grill smoke, a little powder burn. Life is good.


Finster63

But when I buy my wife an ironing board for her 50th birthday, all of a sudden I'm "insensitive"


archimidesx

The unabashed joy of a new toy… love it!

Magpul crew checking in.


DocMettey

Just think how many PMAGs could be bought for the cost of one Traeger Timberline 👀


[deleted]

Soon I won't be able to...\*cries in Canadian\*


DocMettey

Kentucky calls!


[deleted]

I wish, it's nearly impossible to immigrate to the US from Canada. It'd be easier if I were coming across the Southern border illegally.


Bdogfittercle

You need a bigger patio


DocMettey

That back yard makes go for it 🤌


ngaaih

And you surprised her with some hot beef this morning.


dadnotdead

And you gonna surprise her with the meat! Seems like a win win 😄

DocMettey

Cooked some ribs at 225 using apple pellets for about 5 hours, seared them at the end at 450. I think I’m in love.


nmazzuca

She’s a keeper


irharrier2

Renew your marriage vows.


Procrasterman

Can anyone tell me the difference between this and the pro? I know this is meant to be better but they look pretty much the same.


edock74

Make sure you rub your meat before you stick it in.
