    Adding Gas Ignition to Performer?

    I added the TNG starter to my Performer. Thread is here: http://tvwbb.com/showthread.php?23649-COMPLETED!-Red-Weber-SS-Performer-Restoration-20-CL-score-Now-with-pics!!/page2 It did take many trips to HD to figure out how the burner tube was mounted to the bowl. I had the tray which usually...

    Simpsons OTG from CL... touch up recs?

    Thanks, Sonny. Do you remember which paints you bought, and where you bought them from? Most of the high heat paints I have seen are darker or brighter yellow, so your idea of blending yellow with white is a great one.

    Simpsons OTG from CL... touch up recs?

    I picked this beauty up over the weekend. Now my Simpsons SJS has some company! Does anyone have any recs for touching up the dings in the lid? The yellow on these is more pale than the older Weber yellows I think, so I don't know if I will be able to find a reasonable match. I'm...

    Vintage Wok details

    Thanks Jeff. That's a really nifty wok. I like the one for the SJ too. This wok seems to be much better than the other 2 styles I have seen - one being the shallow one in your post, and the other being the one sold as part of the Gourmet system.

    knife for trimming st louis

    I use a very expensive chef's knife that I got at Target for $10 about 9yrs ago. I take care of the blade as much as I can by keeping it sharp and steeling it now and then. It works great.

    Temperature experiment

    I usually find the top vent runs 20° higher than the grate temp. I am moving towards just mesuring the vent temp since it is much easier to deal with than the hassle of a probe at grate level ie mods for probe placement, avoiding wire crimping, etc.

    Remote meat thermometer

    Get the et-732. I have the et-73, which was out before the et-732. Had some range issues (which were corrected with the et-732) so I had to mod it by adding antennae. It has worked great for several years, and I hear that the et-732 has worked great for folks as well. I can do overnight cooks...

    Storing ET732 or other similar digital thermometers question?

    I use a toolbox. Cost about $15 at HD. Thermos and other smaller items go on the top insert. Larger items like tongs, charcoal starters, injector, gloves, etc go in the main compartment. The outside removable boxes contain spare batteries, needles for the injector, extra...

    Are we all doing it wrong?

    I have been a CI subscriber for several years, but am close to cancelling my subscription. Firstly, after a few eyars I noted that recipes are often repeated, as if they have 3-4 years of material, but then have to repeat recipes to keep things going. If recipes are not repeated almost the...

    Caveman steaks - what's the point???

    I really want to try this now, after seeing the pics and hearing about the results. To get a medium-rare ribeye (say an inch or so thick), how long should each side stay on the coals? Planning on using lump.

    wooden handles? (update on baby blue kettle)

    Sorry - don't mean to hijack this thread - but Steve can I ask more specifics about the VHT products you used? I checked Amazon and found VHT flameproof grey primer, flat red ceramic coating, and satin clear paint... are those the 3 products which you found to hold up to the heat the best? I...
