Chris, first off – Thank You! Like many here, without TVWBB I’m not sure I’d be in the position that I’m in today (with respect to cooking outdoors) and that is a wonderful thing. I joined the site almost two years ago when I was researching and eventually purchasing my 18.5” WSM. At the time I just wanted to be able to make good ribs. I had a nice Weber gasser and cooked on it frequently, but I just didn’t “get” charcoal cooking / smoking at the time. A couple of more grills and a couple thousand pounds of charcoal later, my poor gasser serves only as an outdoor oven. What’s so wonderful about this place as you have cultivated a true friendly and helpful community. In my opinion, a large part of that is how much respect we all have for you – as a person and of course as a fellow Weber fan. So thanks for starting, building and maintaining this wonderful site!
OK – on to the question…a simple one. You’ve mentioned that you don’t have a garage full of grills / smokers. Given the true beauty and collectability of Webers and your long term connection with them….is there any particular model / year you really want that you don’t have(yet)? Or that you have just missed and still think about? (For example, I missed a late 60’s Avocado a few months back that I still think about).
Thanks – Jim
