    PK Grill, anyone else here have one?

    I'm still trying to figure out the damper settings as well but I'm sure I will get it. I do like that when I shut all of the dampers, the coals die out. I can't get my Weber Kettles to do that for some reason. I bought the classic aluminum because it was the only color the store had but when...

    PK Grill, anyone else here have one?

    I just bought a new one last month. I found out about them last year and became intrigued by them. A local Outdoor Home store stared carrying them and I broke down and bought one. I have about four or five cooks on it and really like it. It is very miserly on charcoal usage which I like and...

    Buying on Craigslist

    I have bought all kinds of things off of CL including some of my grills and have never had a problem. Just do as some others have suggested and try to do the exchange in a public place. I also have a concealed carry permit so I almost always go armed when I buy off of CL because there have...

    How many bbq with a kettle vs the wsm?

    The PBC is pretty much a set it and forget it cooker which I like plus it uses charcoal which I also like. Even though the end of the ribs are not burnt to a crisp, the last few times I cooked ribs, I just cut them in half and hung them like that. It's just easier to handle them that way. The...

    WSCG's on backorder all over the country

    Don't feel bad, I won't be able to afford one either. Even in a few years, I'm sure used ones will still be very expensive. Wayne

    New C&B Performer

    Very nice. I love that color and kick myself to this day for not buying one when you could still get them from C&B. I have never seen a used one for sale around here but if I did, I would pick it up in a heartbeat even though I already have two Performers. Enjoy it. Wayne

    Grill grates

    I just bought a set for my PK grill and used them for the first time last night cooking some burgers. I like them so far but don't have much experience with them yet. Wayne

    WSCG's on backorder all over the country

    The store that I actually saw these grills in was called Pits N Grills in Springfield, MO I did not see these at the Outdoor Home store in Nixa or in Springfield so I don't know if they got any in yet or not. Wayne

    CL Weber Performer Pick up

    Very Nice and a great price! I have a 2007 model that I picked up a couple of years ago for $85 and I recently got my table replaced under warranty for a cracked table. Wayne

    How many bbq with a kettle vs the wsm?

    For smoking I used to use one of my WSM's but since getting a Pit Barrel Cooker, I have not used them at all. The PBC is a lot easier to use and I was having temp issues with the WSM. I may have to try the WSM's again at some point. For regular cooking I usually use one of the Performer's or...

    Patience grasshopper. Scored a performer

    I have a 2007 performer and I was glad that my plastic table had a crack in it so I got my metal table top for free under warranty. I need to get the new lid bale now. Wayne

    WSCG's on backorder all over the country

    One of our local barbecue stores has two of them in stock. One already put together and the other still in the box. They were also putting the model without the table together yesterday when I was in the store. I wish they were not so expensive. I just can't justify spending that much on a...

    Has any one ever made or used a "ugly drum smoker" ??

    I have a Pit Barrel Cooker which is pretty much like an UDS but it is made out of a 30 gallon barrel instead of the typical 55 gallon one. It cooks great chicken and ribs which is the only thing I've cooked on it other than burgers one time which they came out good as well. I like the PBC...

    WSM Hanging Ribs - 1st Go-Around

    I still use both of my Weber gas grills but have not used any of my Weber charcoal grills in a long time. I have been using a 22" old smokey grill quite a bit and it seems to retain heat a lot longer than my Weber kettle grills or performers. Wayne

    WSM Hanging Ribs - 1st Go-Around

    I have a PBC and love that thing. I have not used any of my weber smokers in over a year since I've had it. I like the fact that I don't have to monitor temps and I have not cooked any bad food on it yet. I guess one of the reasons is that the last few cooks I did with the 18.5 and 14.5 WSM...

    feedback on first cook in my 14.5 temp was a touch low.

    The last time I used my 14.5, I could not get the temps up either. I do the Minion method with a foiled water bowl. The next time I'm going to try and start with more lit coals. I think I only started with about 15. Wayne

    New WSM 22.5 in the cold.

    Welcome to the site. I'm just down the road from you in Aurora, MO. I have two 18.5 WSM's as well as a 14.5. The last few times I've used my WSM's, I've had problems keeping the temps up so I'm going to have to figure out what the problem is. Wayne

    Picked up a red Genesis 1000 B for my son

    I bought my SS flavorizer bars from him some years ago for my Red genesis 1000. Very heavy duty. Wayne

    New Family Member (1996 Genesis 1000 Redhead)

    A few years ago I bought a 1999 red genesis 1000 from the original owners. I ended up replacing the flavorizer bars and grates with SS ones. I also replaced the burners because one was cracked. Even though all of the wood panels were in good shape, I replaced them with the fake wood looking...
