Like a kid on Christmas!!!

[Rich G]

I picked up Chris' 26'er, and I just couldn't wait to christen it!

Here she is with the rest of the Weber family:

Fired up a chimney on the Performer, then moved it over to the new grill (wow those baskets look small in there!):

Seasoned up some skirt steak with salt, pepper and DP Fajita'ish:

Went hot/fast over direct heat a couple minutes per side (two pieces over the coals at a time):

Sliced it up, then served alongside some brown rice (not pictured):

The steak was tasty, though could have used a soak in a tenderizing marinade. The 26er was definitely overkill for this cook, but I wanted to get a feel for how it runs, and using the baskets for different set ups. It's going to work out great, and I can see it becoming a go-to next to my performer!

See y'all!

[DaveW]

Congrats on the 26'er Rich! You'll love the space!

On a side note, next time you cook some skirt, try slicing it long ways (against the grain) instead of short, see what you think about it

What a score, and from Chris himself, great cook's a coming on that bad boy.
