I stocked up on the Competition Oak Briquettes 7.49 at Academy Sports. Once those are gone I will not be using B&B charcoal again. They sold out to Duraflame and now ruining a product that was amazing.

Juicier the better

Tom says it like it is. I sent B&B a direct message asking them if the B&B Oak/Hickory is replacing Competition Oak Briquettes ( Texas Style). Their website does NOT differentiate between the two options, which tells me they are replacing the reliable Competition Oak Briquettes with the Oak &...

Kenji's other Burger videos are good information. Kenji's Burger Techniques - smash burgers, diner style burgers & grill style burgers. Twelve Rules for Better Burgers The SnS Backyard Burger demo was good, emphasis on light packing the meat. I like the use of a baking ring over a burger...

Thank you for sharing. That technique while a little more complicated, does makes a lot of sense. White Castle used to put holes in their burgers for the same reason. Warning Spoiler alert for those who haven't seen Kenji's All time favorite Burger video- Meat was harmed beyond human...

I was at my local Goodwill looking for some cheap metal tongs for moving charcoal. I wandered over to an aisle to look for cast iron finds. Found this gem hidden under a stack of rusty looking metal pans. Le Crueset 12.5 Bistro Grill - I got it for $5.99. Texted the wife with a picture and...

Welcome Scott! You will find this community very welcoming & willing to share all kinds of ideas, suggestions and general grilling experiences.

It is nice having 2 kettles( actually 3 including 1980s Happy Cooker) We also have a Weber Q 2800N+ I really don't need another grill. If anything would love to have an older Genesis for nostalgia. I use the Q for quick week night meals, & full griddle smash burgers/ breakfast. The Weber Q is...

I like the Crimson because it's a unicorn. No other standard Performer that color. Someone on here dropped a blue kettle in the same style cart. My crimson one reminds me of the Weber One Touch Platinum (platypus) that I would love to get my hands on. The Weber Performer Deluxe is nice, I...

I recall seeing the letter code table never saw the cypher " AUTHORIZED". I worked at an Osco/Skaggs drug store when I was in highschool. The price tags had a letter code cypher " CHARLESTON". The letters (& corresponding numbers 1-0) indicated the actual retailers cost of the item. As employees...

You sure know your Webers! EI 173896 Weber 900

I need to make room for a bigger LP grill, I have 2 Performers and will be torn on which one to part with. I have modified them both to be really good grills for low & slow. I dropped a Crimson Performer Deluxe into a standard Performer, added an SnS smoke port, makes for a good smoking rig...

Thanks for the information Josh. The 7509 part number didn't show up on the 900 or 1000 schematic. I see what you are referring to with the deeper box and framing. The 1000 has 2 rows of flavorizer bars. I am pretty new to the LP gas grilling, only use the Weber Q , I am loving the quick...

Thanks for the response, you might be correct. The reason I thought it to be a 1000 is the wood side table,It could be just missing the small casters on the left. It also seems to be missing the folding table in front. How can I replace the part that folds down ( I can add my own wood slats)...
