They got to be aware that the public wants this in a larger size for a 26er, right?

I was once cooking steaks for a crowd on my Performer. I got it screaming hot. I got it so hot that I melted the thermoplastic roller on the lid bail. The steel was unaffected.

Get both! The only downside to me of getting a 26 is that you have but 1 choice. There is no option but to get a 3 legged grill. Maybe it uses a little more charcoal, but the extra space is worth it. I have both sizes. They are both great. The 26 is just more versatile to me...

It is officially crimson, Weber item 15503001 The first of my kettles in anything other than basic black.

I seriously considered a Summit Charcoal grill too, but ultimately decided for the same price I could get a WSM and a Performer for less than the cheaper Summit, so I went for the Performer (only) for now. I don't know when it is coming. I think I could have taken a black one home with me...

Well, I think that I am officially giving up on my "7-year work-in-progress" table mounted 26" kettle. I just ordered a new Performer Deluxe, in red. It was either red or the Crate and Barrel blue, but I ended up choosing the red one. This is not my first 22" Performer, it's my second. I...

My tips to get and maintain 225* 1) Start with a nice and clean charcoal pit. 2) I would use only Kingsford Competition (K-Comp). It burns lower & steadier than lump and less ash than regular Kingsford (K) 3) I would set the top vents to mostly open and NEVER adjust them again. You want...

The good news is that port shoulder is very forgiving with temp swings. Lump burns hotter than briquettes. If you want to go low and slow, keep a bag of all natural briquettes around. Don't say "I only use lump" when there are situation that are better served with briquettes. Personally...

I can tell you what I did. I took 3 eye bolts (these are bolts with loops on the end instead of just a hex head) and I alternated 2 washers (1 inch wide washers) then a hex nut, then 2 washers, then a hex nut, then 2 washers, etc until the bolt had about 2 inches of washers and hex...

Well, one can only buy what the stores sell in his area, right? There may be some great charcoal options that are regional sellers. Around here, it's tough to find anything but the following: K, Royal Oak, Cowboy lump, store branded crap. Given those choices, I would use mostly K...

Anyone seeing any July 4th sales? I am disappointed. I need to stock up. I can recall just a few years ago buying 40lbs for $10 on the big summer 3 day weekends, everywhere like Home Depot, Wally World, etc. I may just end up going to costco and buy some K-pro bags. Now...

I wish they would make more shiny red kettles, perhaps in Master Touch format.

I knew a woman with a kettle like that old one. Her name was Eileen :)

Maybe this is not strictly about charcoal kettles, but I happened to drive by the East Palatine facility (the one off Hicks Rd, where the little parts store is) yesterday and on the road they had signs that they were looking to add workers to 2nd and 3rd shifts. So things seems to be jumpin'...

Here's a writeup on the the safety device tripping up: https://www.sabergrills.com/Support/Article?articleid=17 I still think this is the cause of your problem. If it was a grease clog, you would be seeing a more random pattern of clogged holes. Your pic shows you are getting only enough...

THe q2400 is an electric grill so I assume you mean a 2200 gas grill. Are you using an adapter for a 20lb tank? Or are you using a 16 ounce small canister? I am guessing that you are using a 20lb tank, and you are tripping a safety mechanism in the regulator that reduces the gas flow to a...

220 or 221. Whatever it takes!

Thanks for saving me from myself....

I second this. Home depot sells orange buckets for about $3 each. But look in their paint department for the 5 gallon buckets that are WHITE, which are labeled as food safe plastic. Include a lid for a total of under $7 if I recall correctly
