Good morning guys and gals.
Each year my city has a "citywide spring clean up" where everyone in town can put whatever junk they no longer want from their house at the curb and the city comes by and picks it up for free. Now, if you love old Weber Genesis grills (which we all do), this is a gold mine for free refurb opportunities. In previous years I've picked up several good condition genesis grills that only needed some new grates, or burners, etc and this year was no exception. Found a pretty retro model, don't think I've ever seen a lid like it, but someone else already beat me to it and stripped it of a bunch of parts. All in all, it probably would have taken $150 in parts to get going again, so decided to finally make a smoker cart for my WSM 14.5. Simple, cheap, and effective, and using it this morning for a brisket.
