    New Old Kettle

    That's a great find and a beautiful color. Price is so hard to quantify since the number of NIB samples gets smaller every year. Old school is cool but it's nice to have something nice and shiny. You have it both ways! There's a NIB 22 for sale near me of about the same vintage. I bought a...

    Garbage Find Webere Genesis Silver A

    I like havoing a gasser so when I want to grill some veggies I can fire it up and in a couple minutes it's ready to go. A couple minutes later I can shut it down when the veggies are done.

    Great "Barn Find" on CL

    Score! I like my Silver A which (I believe) is just a newer model of the same grill. And, oh yeah... Pix or it didn't happen.

    Garbage Find Webere Genesis Silver A

    The crossover tube looks like it's shot. What I see ofd the burner tubes look OK - might need to have the holes cleaned out. But you may not find the crossover tubes w/out the burner rubes so it may not matter. Flavorizers and grate look good. They may be stainless steel. You can tell by...

    New Owner Q320

    Welcome to TVWBB. I understand that the Q grates are porcelain coated. If they don't rust, then that's what they are. Of course if the porcelain chips they will rust. I got mine used so it was already pretty well seasoned. I usually oil the food and grates though some prefer to only oil the...

    Getting Started with a Restoration - Genesis Gold

    The only problem with burner tubes that I have seen in the few gassers I have looked at was an obviously deteriorating transfer tube. (the small one at the end that lights the second and third burners.) I can think of two problems that could lead to what you describe. <UL TYPE=SQUARE> <LI>The...

    temp probes

    Hi E. Mercado and welcome to TVWBB. Kevin is much more knowledgeable than myself so I'm glad to hear that he also recommends dropping a probe through the top vent. I do that on all of my cookers except my WSM in which I have installed an ordinary grommet that fits both probes form my ET-73...

    First beef roast

    I show a 10 lb butt hitting 123° after 4 hours at 205°-215° measured at the grate (about 190° on the lid thermometer.) I would shoot for higher temperature with beef and it should hit 130° sooner. This is assuming that beef heats the same as pork. I don't know if that's true. I rarely rub the...

    Question Looking at a used wsw

    I'd start with the condition of the cooking grates. If not cared for they can get pretty rusty and add to the cost you wind up paying. Check overall for dents or dings or chipped porcelain. If the smoker is not stored with the middle section upside down, the bottom section can fill with water so...
