I don’t need a 26” kettle


 
Id go with the black one if its made in the USA, and doesn't have the defects of the Chinese LE Red 22.5"
 
I would never buy a 26" kettle unless I was going to make a performer out of it ,a table and a bin makes a big difference to me
 
What's wrong with black?

26's are awesome! I love mine so much I picked up a second one.

Nothing wrong with black. But I have a perfectly good normal size kettle, a Blaz’n Grillworks pellet smoker, an outdoor gas grill, and a grill built into my range.

Even with my very understanding wife, I can’t just buy another grill without having a reason!
 
If the right one comes along for the right price, I’d be on it like smoke on a butt!
Then, of course, I get to design another grilling station!

While I'd jump on a colored 26er, too, it'd be hard to pass up a Red one. But, I'm really hoping for a Gourmet BBQ grate for the one I have now ! ! !

See, I’m excited by the stainless steel grate. I don’t see the appeal of the inserts. I guess it’s just not for me.

I only use the stock grate insert, couldn't live without in on my Performer, rarely do I have to remove the whole grate.
I didn't see the need so much for one when I had a 26" but it would have been handy at times for sure.

Gentlemen, gentlemen....there is a chap in Eldersburg MD with a black 26" OTG with the original grate ANNNND craycorts for sale....just saying, if anyones looking to get into the fast lane here I'm wheelin to let dem in

While I might add a few of the Gourmet System inserts, particularly the searing grate, my primary reason for wanting the GBS option is that I'm afraid of burning out my current grate with my Vortex. We have wings at least 2-3 times a month. Maybe the full SS grate would slow that down, or even eliminate it, I don't know. If that's the case, though, I think we've got a better chance of Dave from Adrenaline BBQ putting one out than Weber.
