    I will just leave this here

    I definitely liked my very similar SS Platinum. It was hotter and hot faster than my x000 grills. Having one of each would be even better, but there goes that collecting (hoardingo_O) bug again!

    200 grills need to be saved from the scrap yard in Northern Virginia!!!!!

    Yet is the operative word. Maybe in NJ people will pay more, but I am thinking he will be looking at those for a long time. Besides a number of open cart Genesis II grills I was writing about when you posted, I believe I see a nice Skyline in that collection:cool:!

    200 grills need to be saved from the scrap yard in Northern Virginia!!!!!

    I am sworn off to buying ANYTHING more after going to Illinois to buy my capstone unicorn Vieluxe. But if I ever whittle down my collection of older grills for flipping before I am too old - or dead - to do more, I think I would leapfrog from x000 to Genesis II grills. To do those right means...

    Looking for recommendations on grill brushes.

    I do use those as well, whenever possible, if the soft pads don't do the job. On raw cast iron, it is not as big a deal, but since most cast iron grates today are porcelain coated, anything you can do to avoid chipping that off is a good idea. I still have a set or two in reserve of the very...

    I appreciate the additional information, Jim. If they were all free, that would make it all the harder to say "No!".

    Pizza idea hatched from pizza oven use

    I am afraid that after an unusually mild fall, that your fear of a long, hard winter is all too possible. Maybe we will get lucky again, though!

    200 grills need to be saved from the scrap yard in Northern Virginia!!!!!

    Very sound warning. I was heading perilously close in this direction. I am more and more aware that I don’t want my sons to have to someday clean up behind me🥲.

    Pizza idea hatched from pizza oven use

    I have to admit I have no experience or expertise, but your idea sounds very doable to me.

    Looking for recommendations on grill brushes.

    If you have stainless rod grates, I can heartily endorse the Chargon that @Bruce referenced. I do also have a Libman mentioned by @LMichaels that I use sparingly on cast iron when my “scrub pad” soft grate cleaner can’t do it all. On GrillGrate grates, a wooden spatula type scraper seems like...

    Happy Thanksgiving to all

    Well, my wife worked hard on her oven chicken to try to meet me in the middle:

    Happy Thanksgiving to all

    That’s what my wife would say as well! Oh well…

    Happy Thanksgiving to all

    HAPPY TURKEY DAY 🦃 to all of you! I have only met a few of you in person, but TVWBB gets to feeling like family! My wife and I have this same disagreement every Thanksgiving. So, which turkey would you rather have:

    I will just leave this here

    Cody, I would stay far away as well!:p Val, That's some great detective work you did! I agree it is the Fiesta Blue Ember. The one Cody posted looks like this one with the side tables sheared (burned :eek: off?):

    That one has me stumped. Broil King?

    15" 9mm grates for Silver A, Spirit 500 and similar grills

    Even better than I expected!(y) I ordered a set of these, and they arrived today. I am very impressed with the quality and appearance. They are non-magnetic stainless and VERY heavy. I would almost call them "Dave Santana/rcplanebuyer" quality and heft. Even the ends of the bars are nicely and...

    WSM 22" Gasket Install

    I think using a decent degreaser on the areas where you will be applying the gasket should do the trick. My experience, however, is limited to kettles.

    15" 9mm grates for Silver A, Spirit 500 and similar grills

    The smaller two-burner Silver As sometimes don't get the respect they deserve. Just yesterday, I used mine instead of my 1st gen Summit and had a very happy cook: Well, if you don't like the controversial GrillGrate grates but love your 2-burner, here's a great chance to buy 9MM stainless rod...

    INCREDIBLE!! 2 Jrs in 2 days!!

    That black one looks like a lucky survivor that was well cared for not needing much besides a cleaning. Amazing find! Troy, you and @Josh Dekubber are on your way to cornering the market on these often forgotten classics😎.
