Happy 4th Share your favorite Grill or Grills

[Josh Dekubber]

To celebrate the 4th I'd love to start by seeing pictures of people's favorite grills. Maybe it's your favorite restoration project or maybe it's a brand new grill that you love or an old grill that you've had with you for a long time. I WANT TO SEE SOME PICTURES OF WHAT YOU'RE INTO.

Here's my first old school Weber build I'm just finishing up. I have rebuilt tons of newer ones that I've enjoyed but I really connect with these 13 bar slat grills and look forward to building many more.

Those are truly what made Weber a great player in gas grills. Everything that came since (2011 and onward) to my eyes is just "pretenders". Beautiful work there

Thank you! I agree and I'm amazed by the quality of these's old grills compared to the new ones.

The older I get the more I appreciate old things that were built to a higher standard. Built to last and stand the test of time. I tried to incorporate these things in my life whenever possible.

Yah, these grills we are rehabbing are 20-40 years old and besides some grates, flavo bars and burners, many times they are all original. I don't expect these new grills will be restorable in 20 years.

 

[Josh Dekubber]

I'm positive you are correct because I have rebuilt ones that are around 5 years old and in pretty rough shape. They just weren't built to last and stand the test of time. I'm excited to build some old school Weber's with the highest quality parts I can source. These grills will Outlast me. I think that's pretty darn cool.

Really like our NG E320 side winder. It's great for quick cooks and keeping the heat out of the house during the summer. Plus, that gas tank that never runs out is a big plus too.
Next up would be our Gen1000LX deep box converted to a gen 2000 which we've had since 1998 when we bought it new. It's been the work horse for 26 years our only grill for at least 20 years, Barbs favorite.
For charcoal for the two of us we can't beat our Jumbo Joe Fuel efficient and easy to clean, the vortex queen.
The Camp Chef is our favorite smoker and slow cooker.

Thank you for sharing Rich!!!
I was feeling dumb thinking I was the only one that was going to share LOL. You've got an excellent set up here. Very impressive! You've got a full grilling kitchen set up there. I love it.

I'm not too far from you right now. I'm just down in Northern Peoria about 20 minutes south of lake pleasant

Not necessarily my favorite, but it was my first, and the picture feels appropriate.

 

[Josh Dekubber]

I love it Brenda! Thank you for sharing!

Glad to be of assistance.
We will be staying with my daughter in Surprise in August for a few days for her birthday, ought to be nice and toasty by then. Really hot up here too.
Being 76, the performer and 22 kettle doesn't get much use as we just don't cook large enough meals anymore.

You know it's really true in some aspects they don't make them like they used to. My friend Carel if 87 years old and she impresses me.

The one on the left was my dad’s, purchased new in ‘87. The other one was saved from the trash around 2007, but it is even older.

I rehabbed this a few years ago. I used it last night to cook some chicken fajitas.
