Great looking roast Rich. It looks like it turned out perfect. Great dinner. I don't know anything about a kettle with gas but it looks like it works like a champ.

I definitely bought the amatuer model. It is plastic but the motor has been strong for all my needs which is 10 lbs and under. Its been very reliable. $99.99 back at least 6 or seven years ago.
There used to be a thread of charcoal pics that everyone contributed to and I wanted to bump it but i'll be darned if I can find it. It was one of my favorites. Anyway here is an entry.
