Long time forumite but I'm new here!
I grew up in the Chicago area and if you did, your family probably had a kettle. Back in the days of wooden handles and black grills fading to grey as they received almost daily love and use.
After trying a number of other grills, I've made my way back to the 22.5 inch kettle. i do have an original Q that's been modified with a temp gage from TV hardware, from my condo days where charcoal wasn't allowed.
Here is this summer's weapon of choice.![Cool :cool: :cool:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
It has been taking good care of us. (yes i did get some water into the drip pan to keep things moist before we cooked).
This past weekend I scored a 18" off my local c-list, not too shabby for $50. I'm actually considering using it for keeping cold beverages on ice since it's so nice and i use the 22.5 almost daily this time of year.
The "Q" in action for when the kids need something served up at light speed. When will they learn the best things take a little time?
I look forward to learning more ways to utilize these babies, trading recipes and honing my skills!
One thing i do recommend is the ET-73 RediChek, it's been a big help to me anyway.
