I bought the Ironwood 885 for myself for fathers day.. it is a whole new experience of grilling, smoking and outdoor cooking.  I had a nice natural gas grill and an electric smoker.. this bows them both away.  I have cooked steaks,burgers, pulled pork, wings, sausages, beans, vegetables, bread.brownies you name it will cook it better than you have ever made it before.  I can't stop trying new things.. everything I have made on it is the best I have ever made and it does not heat up the house in the summer.  It is expensive but worth every penny.. a great investment.  The one thing I was worried about was if it would sear a steak..drop the bottom grate clear down turn up to 500 + and you get a great sear on a steak!! Wow this investment is well worth the money!
