    Lid finish on the newer Q1200 and Q2200 models

    Ps, today i felt a black one. It was not smooth but not bad. Compared to the red one at ace, the black one would be considered smooth. Maybe a bad batch ?

    Lid finish on the newer Q1200 and Q2200 models

    We have more moisture than you might think. Anyway, i use mine through the winter. But it does get coverd when not in use. It is outside and getting wet with moisture collecting under the cover. I do no more than oil the grate with pam. No matter when i need to grill, the grate is rust free...

    Lid finish on the newer Q1200 and Q2200 models

    Dont think they are doing that. I dont get the grate rust thing. I bought my q220 back in 2005 ? So my grate still looks basically new. I clean and oil it after each cook. Not the entire grate, just the top. Twice a year i give the whole grate a decent scrubbing. Then oil it up. I figure that...

    Jumbo Joe handle loose

    Jumbo joe with the high handle and heat shield ? The plastic handle screw comes loose ? That is odd as i have never seen a screw come loose on any plastic handle. Maybe stripped out a bit ? Maybe try a slightly larger screw ? You may have to sand down the side ov the screw to fit in the hole.

    Multiple minis built this summer

    What are you doing to prevent the ashes from plugging the lower vent ? I first used the sj with the can mod but was not satisfied though it cooked fine. So i got a smokey joe gold from my sister who was not using it and gave her a regular sj all refurbished. I used the sjg and much prefer it for...

    Charcoal go anywhere

    Depends on the situation but my go to is the go anywhere. But the smokey joe is fully capable of cooking whatever you need it to do. Course doing the can mod really enhances the sj. As an aside, when i use the sj i use coconut charcoal. Gives a nice smell and taste and burns much more evenly.

    Lid finish on the newer Q1200 and Q2200 models

    Yup, was at ace yesterday. The red q1200 is still rough. I have not heard or read anything from weber as to why. And yes, rough enough to not be easily cleaned or wiped with a rag as i do on my red q220.

    22.5 lid out of round

    I actually made a lever tool to do that. Cut two pieces of wood to fit the curve of the lid. Than attach a lever set up that spreads out as you pull on the lever. Easy to make. Kind of like two pieces of wood. One longer than the other. Connect them midway. Thats your pivot point. Now as you...

    Q1200 Gas Smell

    I think there is a schrader valve in there. I had one leaking and it was the schrader valve seal. At least check it.

    weber q 1200 vs go-anywhere gas for travel grill

    The gga is fine for light cooking. Just mind the wind. If windy make a wind break from some cardboard. I have used mine for a hot dog party at the park. Did just fine and it was cold windy day.
