Have any of you experienced rust on your performers metal table? I had 2 of the platinum one touch with the plastic table, in fact, still have one. They would crack and stain so this seemed like an improvement but the rust has now gotten pretty bad and will begin to get much worse from this...

Are these one touch cleaning systems problematic on newer gen grills? My 2016 performer reached the point where I couldn’t move the lever despite being thoroughly cleaned and lubed. My 2 platnium one touch grills were 15 years old and the one touch still worked great. I called Weber and they...

Went to Winn Dixie. They have Boston butt on sale for 1.69/lb but also, a more expensive cut, pork loin at 4.99$ on sale for the same 1.69$. I asked for a butcher to confirm they were the same but none were working. The guy in the meat area said they are the same but one has a bone and one...

Only my third brisket and the first one in several years but followed the high heat method on a 11.6lb packer from Walmart that was priced at $40. Lite the Stubbs, about 2/3 chimney and dumped on a large pile of unlit that were stacked on one side of performer and held in a pile by a row of...

Plan to cook a 12 lb packer using high heat at 350 in my kettle. Expect cook to take 2.5 hours in foiled and 2.5 foiled. Understand flat should be raised to 170 internal before foil. Don’t worry about thick point internal temp? Should I cut point off and cook separately to avoid over cooking...

I knew better but did it anyway, lifted the grill by the end of the table while 20lbs of meat was on it. The table is old and more brittle so this was enough to put a small crack on one side of the table. Not a big crack but I can feel it give when I lift up on it to roll the grill, something I...

Have been a member for a long time but have not been around much over the last couple of years. I have smoked many butts over the years but not briskets. I've done two and none in the last 4-5 or more years. When I did, the high heat method was highly touted as the best way to do the brisket...

Oddly, despite all the butts I have smoked and a few briskets and countless steaks, I have never prepared wings on the grill or smoker. I wish to do that Sunday and need some tips. Came back to my favorite site but didn't see much on the subject in the cooking recipe area. There was one called...

What are your thoughts, my neighbor is moving and offered his 6 month old weber perf deluxe to me for 175$. I recently picked up a used 2010 blue performer w gas so i would be swapping out to get a handle that doesnt burn my hand and a lid that opens virtically plus electronic ignition. My...

Wife said I have too many grills cluttering up the pool deck and something must go. I never use the gasser, it was for her. I planned to do some low and slow using one burner but one burner doesn't get hot enough and two doesn't allow for indirect. I guess it was taking up unnecessary space...

I bought some bb ribs and the pkg was 3 lbs. the bones seemed a bit large for bb. Made me wonder, is it better to pick smaller, 2 lb slabs vs large or is the quality of the the meat all the same?

This is the first time in years that I use the WSM almost forgot how to operate it. The ribs are still cooking but I'm on the final stage of the 2/1.5/1 cooking method. For fun, I also put a half a dozen wings on the smoker for two hours they are not yet finished. I know these ribs are wet, I...

Went to Walmart, scored in several fronts but one was a 12 lb packer regularly $3 a pound but with a yellow sticker so marked down to $1.79/lb. I believe it is choice. Do you recommend the high heat method or low and slow?

Went to Walmart (edit, lowes) today, they have Stubbs on clearance for $2.50 for the 15 lb bag. I'm sure this is store specific and not wide spread but seemed like a really good deal. I already bought 4 double packs of kbb and...I didn't know what u all thought of Stubbs so I only purchased one...

I went to Walmart today and saw 3 of the 2013 weber performers on clearance for $198. It appears the original price was $298. This same model today is now $349. Anyway, no,deluxe models but I thought this was pretty good. I bet Walmart would consider further reducing the price if someone asked...

You all have seen my recent posts with my new used blue performer deluxe. Everything works fine other than I noticed the grey rollers weren't rolling. I took them off and they looked slightly melted, not much but a little. Called weber and told them, they are sending me a completely new bail...

I realize every grill can be a bit different from the other and as you can tell from my signature, I have a good amt of experience with a variety of cookers. Have used many more over the years, however, my go to grill has always been my 2000 OTP as mentioned in various posts of late. It was a...

Just popped an ad on Craigslist and sold the Green OTP to a nice guy for $100 to pay for my new used performer. He was very excited about the new grill, his first charcoal. Said he has been doing a lot of research and this was exactly what he wanted. I sold it in one day. I need to update my...

I hate to post in a section that seems to have no traffic but best I can tell, this belongs here. The reviews on Amazon for the Yukon glory are good, people like the price and out of the box feel but after six months, this is what they can look like. I think the reviews are done before people...

I generally prefer hickory, something I purchase from Walmart but I'm having a hard time finding it this year. Oak is relatively easy to come by in Florida so may switch. Wondered what your thought on it was vs hickory. It doesn't seem real popular but I'm not sure how available it is across the...
