So I'm over my folks last night and my dad is grilling up a bunch of burgers and stuff on his trusty old kettle when he calls me over to look at something.
There is a big hole rusted through the side of the bowl.
What the hell? Looks like the one of the grate brackets weld seam rusted clean through and fell into the bowl, leaving the big hole. Upon closer inspection I found this in the hot coals.
Alas this old kettle has apparently been worked to death and I guess we'll be doing some shopping for a new one. I'm not quite sure how old this one is, but it's been used year round for probably close to 20 years, no matter how much snow was on the ground. Up here in Maine we grill no matter what the weather is like.
