Buy it and don’t look back. I bought mine last March and honestly I wish I would have done this sooner. Excellent cooker for both low and slow and high heat. I have had mine just above 700° no problem. Longest cook has been 13 hours with coals to spare. this grill is a beast and so well built...

In the foothills of the mighty Sierra Nevada Mountain Range, Northern California. Near Browns Valley.

I received mine today. Look great. Thank you so much Chris. You da man!

Very classy looking. I especially like the vent handle!

Thanks for the Pictures John I appreciate it. Huge difference from the hinged version. Mine does not have the lip or the holes around it. Also no handles. I might need to see about getting this updated diffuser plate from Weber. Thanks again for the pictures.

Interesting thoughts from the Weber VP on the changes. I’d be interested in getting a better look at the new diffuser plate. I have the first generation with the hinged diffuser. Never have used it to add more coals in fact I keep mine foiled to reduce the junk where the drip pan misses. Any way...

Probably a matter of opinion but I have had both the performer (2 actually) and a charcoal summit grilling center. From a cooking stand point the summit is, again in my opinion, superior to the performer. With the double insulated walls it holds heat better and is much more efficient which is...

Wow that color is awesome. It really makes the hardware pop. That slate would look amazing on the WSMs

I rarely shop at WinCo, but happen by there yesterday after a sams club run to get beef bones for broth Saw the deal on tri-tips. Select grade, but still a good price. I didn’t buy since just bought 4 at Sams at 5.99 a pound for choice, trimmed which a decent price... I’ve bought select grade...

Great (and practical) Mods to your ranch kettle. I really like the daisy wheel handle for the lower vents. That’s a real back breaker trying to reach those during a cook. You totally scored on the grates. I looked into upgrading my ranch kettle’s cooking grate since I have the smaller hinged...

My understanding is they are starting to better market it by making it a little more price competitive, unfortunately it seems to be coming at the cost of quality. There are some foreseeable differences between the first and now second generation grills between deletes and overall quality of...

I got one too. About 5 years ago off Craigslist used twice for 375. Haven’t used it a ton but it has been great for a few weddings and birthday parties. It’s perfect for cooking philly cheese steaks using my giant 24” cast iron skillet. Here she is in action.

I am in Dwain’s camp now. Last 3 briskets have been high heat and IMO have been better than any low and slow brisket I have done. The flat seems to be more forgiving to the hot and fast method from what I have experienced.

Oops sorry you said genesis not summit. Genesis silver is only 130...

About the same. Summit Charcoal grilling center 225, summit silver gaser 223. Thinking about having it shipped :)

That would be a long drive I get that. I decoded to sell a performer and the 18 WSM to help justify. Probably should unload another... Hope you find a good one closer to home. These really are nice cookers

Those ribs look great. Just starting to separate from the bone. Wow, I might have to rethink tomorrow’s meal after seeing these. Nice job!

Definitely not ceramic, your correct it is double walled. How far is this one from you? That’s a good price for a Gen 1.

Wow! You are more generous than I am! With that said though it is still in the family and now the student can be the teacher. Good on you.

Yes I grill and smoke on it and it does have an ash catcher.
