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...

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.

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...

That's a great score! You will enjoy it.

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.

That's a sweet setup, Jeff! Love the size of that wok - let's you put the stir in stir-fry, without fear of sending things flying.

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.

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.

Looks sharp, Mark!

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...

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...

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...

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.

That looks beautiful! Great job on the mod.

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...

Justin - have you talked to Weber yet? If your SJ is under warranty, you will get the parts for free. Their customer service is usually top notch. Sharon has been very helpful on more than one occasion. Sometimes, if you don't hear the answer you were looking for, it helps to call back and try...

Now that's a neat little trick. I loved the fact that my mini was its own automatic temp controller i.e. temp never got above 250-260F so I could just light it up and walk away. Now I can get those beer-butt chix done in it too! Thanks for the tip.

I have used the Weber rotiss on my drum, kettles, and Performer. I did have some issues with gaps when using it with the performer, due to the position of the bolts for the lid holder, but a heavy duty foil gasket worked just fine. Not a big deal. I bought some rope gasket, which I intend to...

I recently bought a Weber work table for one of my kettle grills, and found that the hardware pack was missing. The store I bought it from was quite a ways from where I live, so even though the store guy offered to replace it, I wasn't keen on driving 2 hrs round trip to get the parts. Called...

OMG and wow!!! I'm no collector, but I have been scouring CL for a year looking for an SJP (missed one by 14 mins last year). And a red one?!? I think I would have wept with joy... after I had picked myself up off the floor.
