    What do you think of these 2 choices?

    If 125 I might grab it if she is firm at 150 may pass although I do have a spare grate, new. I was iffy on the blue but maybe in person I will like it. Comes with free, unused rib racks too, which I don't have and need

    What do you think of these 2 choices?

    Found a used performer a few blocks away. It is blue, post 2010 based on thermo location and owner says 4-5 yrs old. Reportedly little use and while in weather, it has been covered with a generic vinyl grill cover. It is the deluxe model with gas assist. Top grate is rusty. Price was 200 but...

    Agree, maybe there is a way to pull them up but I'm not tech-y enough

    The original 14 inch wsm and my story

    Most of you don't know me, like others, hobbies and interests come and go so I have not spent much time on the board in the last few years but realized I've been an off and on member for close to 10 years. Anyway, came down with a really nasty cold this week which put me out of work for several...

    What's your favorite?

    Every Sunday I do split chicken, basically a 5.5 lb whole bird cut right down the middle, seasoned with tony cacciatore (sp), and grilled on the kettle for 45 min, flipping once. It is completely foolproof and the family loves it. However, our real favorite and almost a weekly treat is ribeye...

    Is it worth trading out of my one touch platinum?

    What are the main differences between the 2010+ generation performer and the 2015+ besides the metal table? Am I better to focus on the 2015 and newer or not enough difference to matter? Shopping used so price and condition will likely dictate but curious as to your thoughts

    Genesis E-320, not impressed so far!

    My older Genesis is the same way, plenty hot with all burners running but incapable of producing sufficient heat via the indirect method doing just what you describe

    How many bbq with a kettle vs the wsm?

    Ok, good feedback, thank you. I need to dust off the wsm, it has literally been sitting unused for 3 years. The last 6-7 butts have been cooked on the performer and with much success but I do monitor it frequently. I don't mind the monitoring and don't find it hard to control temps on but...

    Is it worth trading out of my one touch platinum?

    I almost deleted the100$ and left it at 75 bc I figured times too high. You are right about the used prices on the performers, the ones I have seen are between 150-175

    How many bbq with a kettle vs the wsm?

    Just curious as to how many of you exclusively use a kettle for ribs, butts and briskest vs a wsm, or how many at least use the kettle in addition to the wsm? I have found over the last 2 years that I don't use the wsm any longer. The kettle seems to work extremely well, capable of holding...

    Is it worth trading out of my one touch platinum?

    Most people are familar with the weber performers but I have two of the weber one touch platinum grills with the green kettle and plastic grey table. It looks like the performer but it didn't carry that name. Mine originally came from Home Depot in 2000 or 2001. I remember when my wife brought...

    Brisket May2016

    I didn't know you could buy brisket of that quality for that price anymore. I gave up on briskest bc they got up to 3.99/pound for Walmart choice in CFL. I'm not a Costco member but need to look into this. Your cook has inspired me Ps. Speaking of a cold, I've been home for days days sick...

    Bbq and cold drinks.

    I just got my first yeti 20 oz and it appears as good as everyone says but at $30, I won't be collecting many, until now. I went online and ordered 3 20 oz ozarks. The 30 oz are out of stock but would like to order 2 of them as well. Thx for the alert

    Attitude on Weber Summit Charcoal Grill pricing

    Not a lot I can add to all the great posts but I will chime in. While I can afford the grill and my wife would be totally indifferent despite the fact that I now have 9 grills and smokers, I really don't have any interest in buying this grill. I'm not looking for one do it all grill, frankly...

    Foiling your butt

    I recently placed a post that said, i just smoked my last butt wo foil. Ive dine it both ways many times and simply produce a better product when foiling at appx 170 then remove the foil for the last hour to firm, dry the bark. I dint like the added step of foiling, it just works.

    Just did a 14hr pork butt on a silver 22-1/2

    Very nice. I am able to get very long burns out of my weber platnium and just did a butt last weekend. Makes me wonder why i need the wsm. I donthink the wsm can run w less oversight than the kettle but the kettle does extremely well. Did u stay up all night watching it? Not sure i would have...

    Gas ignition Performer, do you use lighter fluid?

    Inthink some of these posts are from people who do not have a performer with gas assist and they are just commenting on how they light their coals, though some do in fact have the performer. If u can use a chimmney and your gas assist, i think u will be happy. I have 2 non gas assist but plan...

    Cooked my last butt wo foil

    My biggest mistake was not inserting a meat thermo during the cook. I thought i had way more time than needed for such a small piece of meat. The thermo would have alerted me much sooner to the low internal temp and i could have adjusted sooner. Im still surprised at how slowly this meat came...
