You should be allowed to post images that are on your device by clicking the ‘Attach files’ button. @Mike would have to answer the question about hosted images, but I do know some forums discourage them because when a hosting site goes dead, the images in the forum go dead also.I tried to yesterday and it was held up for moderator approval. Does the forum not allow linked (hosted) images? Or maybe I don’t have enough posts?
I chucked the gasser via Craigslist. I do my steaks on the 700 on grill grates. Sometimes I smoke at 180 for an hour first and finish on full heat, other times just flash straight on full heat. That’s about 550 for me. Here’s a few pics. Note, I’m no pic genius, and I like my steaks rare.OK, I'm sold, I'm in, I want the RT-700. It seems to be one of the best values at that price point, and the spiffy styling is the icing on the cake.
I just need that last bit of push to get approval from the ministry of acquisition of non-essential items. My wife likes BBQ, but not as much as me. She's more of a grilled steak, type. Which is fine, I have no problem with that. But my efforts to occasionally try for some smokey flavors on the gas grill are pretty lame as you can imagine.
She contends that with our limited patio space, the RT-700 would take up too much space, and therefore we would need to get rid of the gas grill. As a result, she is afraid that we would lose the ability to make great steaks the way that she likes them. My opinion is that we have enough room for both grills.
So, here are some questions, both about getting her onboard and some questions that I have as well:
Thanks in advance, I hope to be joining in the fun soon.
- Keep the gas grill for more flexibility? (Finishing steaks, chops, etc)
- Can you cook a properly seared steak on the Bull?
- Should I add the searing kit to my order?
- Should I purchase the smoke box? (my wife loves smoked salmon and smoked cheeses)
- Once ordered, how long does it take to arrive? (I'm in Northern Indiana, so I'm in the same half of the country as Recteq)

Nice surprise, enjoy!Congrats! There was a struggle with picking up the RT-700 at first here as well. But, for my birthday my wife surprised me with a Bullseye. She had the neighbor help get it into the house and hid it from me until then while away on a 10 day hunting trip. I only mentioned I would like to have a Bullseye once, not being real sure about it at the time. The two have literally changed how we cook most meals. Recteq lifestyle they say...

Here are a few photos from delivery to burn in to the first cook. I’m beyond happy with the initial impression. It is built solidly and the burn-in and first cook maintained a rock solid temperature of 400. Very impressed!
Congratulations! Very nice first cook. You’ll have fun trying out all sorts of cooks on that grill.Here are a few photos from delivery to burn in to the first cook.

My opinion, Just bought my 700 in March 2021, tried to make steak without sear kit, I couldn’t. Tried using cast iron pan inside but still didn’t come out great. I planned on selling my grill when I bought the 700 but I’m glad I didn’t. Instead I sold my old (big) gas grill and bought a smaller $150 gas grill just for searing and so the wife can make burgers or whatever without having to worry about messing with the smoker. I’d keep your grill for searing. I don’t have smoke box, so no comment. I live in Chicago, delivery took about 3-4weeks. Here’s the push you need, my wife never cared or talked about smoked meats before. After having the grill 2 months she told me her favorite thing right now is coming home from work and seeing and smelling the smoker going. She gets excited. I absolutely love this thing. You won’t regret itOK, I'm sold, I'm in, I want the RT-700. It seems to be one of the best values at that price point, and the spiffy styling is the icing on the cake.
