    Wanting feedback

    Mike is right, it's your money and you should go with what makes you most happy. I like my 18.5 and can do up to 60lbs of pork butt at a time. But many people really like the 22.5 because it allows them to do racks of ribs laying down. I like my 26.75 kettle for ribs, and would recommend the...

    One Grill Performer Basket Update

    Sorry I don't have any pics of using the basket, and we've only had the basket for 2 weeks, but maybe others will send in their pics and ideas. We so far have used the basket to spin a Turkey Breast and a Beef Tri-Tip. Both came out great. We're planning on cut up chicken parts this weekend. I...

    First Cook on my 2010 (AD) 26"

    You're going to love that 26er, my son, dare I say it- is going to get the 26.75 soon as his performer is just about wore out! He looks at mine with envy every time he visits. If Weber made a 26.75" Performer he'd already have it.

    One Grill Performer Basket Update

    Hopefully the pictures come through this time. Thanks DaveW for the picture above showing the lock nut end of the connection. Below I've included a copy of the email response I received from One Grill concerning the change in the design of the basket. I want to emphasize that I am still very...

    One Grill Performer Basket Update

    Nope, didn't work, I'll have to study up on how to send pictures on this site. It's been a while since I've done pictures.

    One Grill Performer Basket Update

    I received my One Grill Performer Basket recently and have had a chance to use it and thought I would post my initial impressions. The basket is well made and the size is good for cooking a variety of items on a rotisserie. The stainless steel material and the fact that it easily disassembles...

    My 26er

    You'll love that 26, and love it even more with a rotisserie, we got one for ours and it's the best way to do big hunks of meat! With our 26 and the rotisserie we're able to cook with the rotisserie and still have enough room that I can leave the cooking grate in and do potatoes and use a cast...

    wanted to try turkey this weekend...

    Roti turkey is the best, last year we spun 2- 14lb birds on our 26.75" kettle and they turned out great! Just last sunday we spun a single big bird breast with our newly acquired One Grill Performance Basket and it was some of the best turkey we've ever had! While I think brining a turkey...

    One Grill Rotisserie Basket

    A heads up tip for anyone considering a rotisserie or basket for their grill, One Grill has a great price right now for their rotisseries and for their performer basket, the best prices for the year according to their web site http://www.onegrill.com. But the sale price ends 09/22/15. I just...

    Pork butt question: meaning to ask for a while...

    I can't keep from eating it as I'm pulling it. By the time I get done pulling the pork, I'm too full to sit down and eat a meal!

    Which would you keep Brand new modded 18 vs used 22

    There's no single correct answer for your question. It comes down to which one will make you the most happy in the long run. We have an 18.5" and I've never wished for the 22 but that's just my preference. I've seen this question go both ways. There's fans of both. There's owners who started...

    How do you pull a big butt....in one piece?

    X2 on the Bear Claws! They work great!

    Curious here... how many of you use the lower level on your WSMs?

    I'm with Joe, if I'm going to smoke meat for 12 hours or more, I'm going to make as much as I can, I usually smoke 40lbs of pork butt at a time, and am thinking I can figure out a way to load 60lbs in my 18.5 WSM. I just need some kind of a rack to stand the butts on end and keep them from...

    My first crack at the Yak!

    Nice job John! Food looks great, and it won't be long till you'll have to fire up more than 1 Weber to keep junior fed! Start saving for the teenage years, kids have bottomless pits for stomachs then.

    First Brisket-WSM 18.5, 11.5lbs, 12 hrs.

    When we do a brisket, I don't slice anymore than we are going to eat at one sitting, I find that if I slice it all up it doesn't hold the moisture as well as when left whole.

    Just Saw This And Was Appalled.

    Reading the article it sounds to me like misunderstanding and poor communication between the contestants and judges followed by poor reporting by FOX. It sounds to me like maybe people were asked to take down signs and or banners that might be considered offensive to others and so people thought...

    So what is the liquid red stuff in the packages of store bought meat?

    It's added weight that we get charged for.

    My Turn Too Do a Turkey

    If you're going to brine a turkey, make sure it's a fresh turkey and not one from the freezer. Most frozen turkeys have already been brined, actually injected with a solution, it's part of the process used to keep the turkey from drying out. If you brine a frozen turkey it will almost certainly...

    Dilemma ?!

    If I read into your post correctly, it seems you are indicating that your porch is running out of room. The short answer to your dilemma is yes, of course you should get the 14.5. The longer answer is get the Weber now, then add onto your porch later- it's a win-win situation. You'll love your...
