 The SmokerIn is a new and unique smoker box. The oval design allows it to fit in between the heat shields of most gas grills. The removable handle allows for ease of refill and deployment. With all stainless construction, this handy little tool will be a must have for the upcoming BBQ season.

Time to Get Grillin'..... Early!
grillingartilcephotospiedini    I'd like to personally shake the person's hand who predicted accurately that we would be lounging around outdoors in short sleeves, for this individual is truly a soothsayer of old and worthy to be crowned meteorological phenom of the 21st century. Stand down Doppler, you've been dethroned.

    Assuming you survived the Ides of March, you have been enjoying the rare splendor that is beautiful Central Ohio weather. And that can mean only one thing, cooking outdoors! It's time to brush the debris off your best patio companion and get grilling.

    As always, Specialty Gas House is your one stop shop for acquiring all manner of parts, accessories and fun accouterment to make your cookout fabu. We have taken it upon ourselves to switch over early as well, getting in new grills and accessories by the day.

    Of course, this wouldn't be a quality SGH Public Service Announcement without mentioning our highly trained Service Staff that can lay down the dirty work for you. Let our experts give your grill the tune-up it deserves.

    And to those customers who told us, 'Watch out for next week, it's going to get colder.' ........

    Et tu Brute?
   Congrats to Our Home and Garden Show Grill Contest Winners!
photo (7) IMAG0082   The big winners of the Home and Garden Show!

    Debbie Yates of Pickerington won our durable MHP gas grill while Tim and Michele Peddicord of Delaware won the coveted Big Green Egg.

     We would like to thank all of you who came down to the Celeste Center and visited with us. I can tell you we had a blast meeting and talking grills with all of you. This was just our third year at the show and it was our best to date.

    Not one of our winners? No worries, a little birdie told me we will do it all again next year. With so many smiling faces, it's hard to call what we do work.
