I'm restoring/rebuilding an old Spirit 500. The firebox has been sandblasted. My question is...are there any special things I need to know or do before I paint? I intend to use either Krylon or Rustoleum black grill spray paint for the outside. Should I use any base coat or primer? I know...
I'm not the one who asked on here but would love to have it as I'm in the process of restoring a Genesis with a black lid. Maybe we can work something out.
Jim, great looking meal !!! Looks like you are using the "baffle" you made. How do you like the results you get using it? I had one made after I saw your post, have used it only one time and can't decide yet whether I like it any better than using bricks.
I WAS a Phys. Educ. teacher and Coach for 35 years. Now I "smoke" with the Weber, play golf, Bass fish and work a few hours each week at a friends liquor store. Retirement is great....
George, check the link in Jim's reply below and you can see a "smoker plate" which is what I was referring to. And Jim ,I had read those posts. I'm leaning toward a smoker plate but will have to check around to see where I can get one made. Thanks to everyone for your comments.
Have been useing the Firebrick/Minion Method to do ribs on my 22.5 kettle. I am contemplating getting either a Smokenator or a Grate Grill (ala the Jim Lampe/Brad L. models that I have seen on threads here) but would like some opinions on which you think is better and why?
