SS chimney

[Tim Dickey]

I have heard talk of a Weber Stainless Steel chimney, but have been unable to locate one. Does such an animal exist, or is this a case for the Mythbusters?

If Weber doesn't make one, does anyone know of anyone that does?

Here's a SS chimney. I don't believe Weber makes one, but I would buy the Weber anyway - I have 4 (at various locations).

Here's another SS chimney. The site also has a pretty nice catalog.

Thanks again Paul!

Many people who have used the non-Weber chimneys complain about a) the small size and b) the inferior air flow causing the charcoal to take a significantly longer time to light. These chimneys do not appear to have as much ventilation as the Weber chimneys.

Well if Weber has the best design, why don't they make a stainless one? or better yet, a procelain coated one (to match my Weber grills).

I just want something that works well and will last a long time.

Why do a lot of people buy a Honda when they could buy a Mercedes Benz and get German engineering?

 

[K_Jordan]

I agree with David. I originally bought the Honda instead of the Benz. The Honda holds less coal and is much more difficult and time consuming to light. Go with the Benz.

 

[Tim Dickey]

Yeah, but I bet the Honda gets more CPP (cooks per pound).

Get the Weber one then. It's made from aluminum coated steel coated and doesn't rust easily, no reason it shouldn't last you a long time.

since my last post, I bought one., and so far, so good.
