    Fall clearances have started!

    Just got back from Lowes by me in NY. Picked up a 4 burner cover for $50. Not as good as others but I could use the cover, mine is deteriorating. The grate system for the spirit was a killer deal, too bad I can’t use it. Nothing else that great

    Looking to get a gas grill - any suggestions?

    Depends on what youn want. The 335 or 435 are both good choices. I like the SS grates, you don't have to worry about rusting or scratching the finish. you can normally get the SS grates in the enamel finished top at Ace hardware and other stand alone retailers. if that is something you prefer...

    How to get a good sear/char/brown in a gas grill?

    Thanks everyone. Sorry if it was confusing, I'm looking for the overall Maillard reaction crust, not the grate marks. I don't have a proper sear burner, it was done away with for the year I bought the grill and brought back a year or 2 later. unfortunate timing. So for charcoal, I...

    How to get a good sear/char/brown in a gas grill?

    I'm trying to figure out where I go wrong. I have seen lots of articles about searing and I really have tried to get the desired heavy brown color on my steaks, but find half the time I can't and I really can't figure out a key ingredient to success. Most of the times I'm cooking on my gas...

    Favorite grilled appetizers?

    2 items we do as apps Shrimp. I get a bunch of the 16-20 per lb shrimp cleaned and devained and marinate in italian dressing, or lime and garlic then cook with one of my mesh pans over the grill. cooks up quick and people like it. Kilbasi- we have a Polish store by us that makes them and...

    Advice on which 2nd grill to buy

    hard to say what you should get. Do you want a table? are you trying to conserve space? do you want to get one as a daily driver and bring the Komodo out on special occasions? How often will it be used? is this for when you have people over? or for your primarily family unit on every...

    Sell the Performer or the WSM

    I get what you're getting at. The Q1200 is bit smaller than the Q320 that you have. The dogs would have have been fine, but the family pack of sausages wouldn't have fit, at least comfortably. For me the Q is fine as a 1-2 person gas grill, and honestly will do most things that fit just as...

    Sell the Performer or the WSM

    So I don't have a answer. i may just have to keep all of them. Cooked split chicken breasts on the performer over the weekend and it was some of the best I've done ever. Perfect crisp on the skin, tender and juicy inside., a bit of a charcoal cooked flavor. Performed great, was better for...

    Sell the Performer or the WSM

    Thanks for all the replies. I am a litle surprised for the Performer love over the WSM, but that is also why i asked the question. I bought the performer with the idea that it would take over some daily driver duty. Weekend cooks where I had more time, chicken on the bone, searing steaks etc...

    Sell the Performer or the WSM

    I'm sure all you guys have more grills than me and are happy to keep them all. And I thought I'd feel the same way, I'm just not sure. Currently I have a a Genesis II LX 440, WSM 18", Blue Performer, and a Q1200. Seems good, there are uses for all of them, except Im not using all of them... I...

    Weber Grate Warranty.

    I would just call weber and tell them. It would be helpful probably to have a proof of purchase since i doubt they have serial numbers on it. If it were me, I would push for a replacement regardless of what the warranty is. IMHO, it should be at least a year. Broken weld is a...

    Could this be a Craigslist scam ?

    I doubt its a scam. Also, if you send an email through craigslist, i think it makes it anonymous it for you. Some info is accurate, some is obviously not, some are just mistakes. Obv not summit grilling center, but they do run between 100-439 on craigslist which was a small added 0 and a...

    Is the Weber Summit Charcoal a flop?

    It may be a good product, but I don't think its a sales success. its supposed to be Weber's version of the BGE, at the pricing of the BGE. However, i don't think it ever got the cool factor that the BGE enjoys, the Weber doesn't have any buzz and honestly it needs it to sell at these kind of...

    Summit Charcoal Souderton, PA

    My problem is the opposite, the kids 8, 3, 9 months, run us ragged to the point I don't have time to relax on a saturday and nurse the smoker, or fire up the kettle, b/c someone needs a bath, shower, ride, etc. If i'm lucky I get enough time to cook on the gas grill for something quick. But...

    Another Grill Cover Thread

    I have to agree with you there, I have a similar Weber cover for my Genesis LX440 for the past 3 years, and although its not as rich black as it was when I got it, it is no where near as faded as that, thats nuts. I'd almost want to call weber up over that, you may be out of warranty, but that...

    Summit Charcoal Souderton, PA

    a man can dream... Realistically, I don't use my performer or smoker enough, only once each last season, been way too busy and just fire up the gas grill. I really need to make a concerted effort this year when the temps get warmer.

    Summit Charcoal Souderton, PA

    No brainer... if you are definitely in the market for 1.... I wouldn't say in general its a no brainer for the rest of us... I think they're cool, and I kinda want one... and there is a price that I'd buy one b/c its a deal etc, but that is not the price. Get me one at $500... I'll be...

    Weber Q1200 cart/table ideas?

    How about something like this. Stainless top, on casters. They have all different sizes, plus wood topped ones. https://www.webstaurantstore.com/regency-24-x-48-18-gauge-304-stainless-steel-commercial-work-table-with-galvanized-legs-and-casters/600T2448GC.html

    Fork in the Road: Do I Become a Kettle Collector or a Kettle Flipper?

    Go over to Weber Kettle Club Forum and purruse there for a while and decide if you are up for that sort of collection. I would sell it to a collector. I like grills. I like grilling. I don't see the point of a grill I can't use. If I were "collecting" I'd collect a few crazy colors and cook...

    QuadCopter recommendations?

    at 8, I'd consider staying with a cheapish one. I've had a Syma X5, its a drone, it works. It is fun. Its not the same as an expensive one, and I did get frustrated with the lack of stability. I've had a tiny Syma (X20 I think) that you use in teh house and it was fun too, again, not super...
