    Feeling INCREDIBLY stupid

    I would be tempted to leave it as is for a bit. Next time you use it, get it nice and hot and scrape off as much of the goo as you can with carefully use of a putty knife. Then maybe while it’s really hot, pour some water on it as if you were cleaning a griddle and see what happens. If that’s...

    Tell me about this six burner Summit Platinum

    Well, let's see. The casting is junk, so if one were to drill a couple of holes... Then one could run a tap, say perhaps a 10-24 thread through both pieces. One could then obtain a couple of 10-24 x 2-1/2" screws (stainless, of course) and screw the pieces together with some JB Weld in the...

    Tell me about this six burner Summit Platinum

    It looks like flavorizer bars would be about $360. No wonder the grill was out at the end of the driveway!

    Tell me about this six burner Summit Platinum

    I wheeled this grill from two houses down yesterday. I can't find a serial number and I don't know much about these newer grills. I see it's a Summit Platinum from the badge on the lid. What years did they make these grills? I understand that these are rust buckets and replacement fireboxes...

    Summit Silver

    Larry, You saw that I dragged home that Summit Platinum and it has both lid hinge mounts broken. I was wondering, do you think the side castings from a four burner are the same as on the six burner? Gerry

    Curb Alert !!!

    Both sides of the casting are broken and the flavorizer bars seem to be in rough shape. The frame, doors and sides are in good shape. I think the lid is good too. I will take a better look at it tomorrow Gerry

    Curb Alert !!!

    Ipe is great wood for that purpose. Looks great with a coat of teak oil or just let them grey. They will never rot!

    Curb Alert !!!

    My grills already have good grates from RCPlanebuyer, but I didn’t have one of the half sized grates. Now I have enough grates to last two lifetimes and more.

    I certainly don’t need another grill. This one has some good parts on it. I might keep the grates if they fit a Genesis 1-5 but I was hoping someone on here might want to take the rest of it off my hands.

    The grates are dirty but solid.

    A GOAT has passed

    Now that I think about it, he was surprised because I had the grill disassembled. It took up a very small space compared to the space he cleared out. I also remember that he made a point to show me the Genesis grill he had. It was in nice shape, and he was understandably proud of it! Gerry

    A GOAT has passed

    Hey Larry, Your dad made it to 98. That's a great run. He had a full life. I lost my dad at 79. Wish he was still around. (Although I might not listen to some of his advice...) One of his sayings that he told us when we were young and just starting out was (In a heavy German accent); "It's...

    If you worked for Weber...

    I know that whatever happens has to be something that makes money for the company. I personally have a couple of early Genesis grills that I have fixed up so that they will last forever by welding up stainless steel frames for them, so it's unlikely that they will get any more money out of me...

    I will just leave this here

    Might be worth it for the outdoorsy custom wood handle though.

    I will just leave this here

    I see that Aldi is test marketing fresh coyote in Chicago. I wonder if they have a rotisserie attachment for their bbq grate so as to do a whole coyote… Gerry
