That's a big one. And look at the width on the IR burner.

Chris, I have 22 of Raichlen's cookbooks and his novel, "Island Apart", which I am going to read again.

Was the Vieluxe subject to manifold plate rustout, too?

Last night’s Porchetta meal on my 4 burner Vieluxe could have used the extra 12” of the big brother V

There is one for sale near me

Are you interested?

Errr… Not a chance

 

[Josh Dekubber]

Are you interested?

It's definitely interesting! Not at this time though. I have a lot of projects lined up and also trying to pick up a couple more JRs plus finishing my current Jr project hopefully over the next week or two.

@LMichaels do not look at post #9; you will get worked up, lol.

Flag thrown. 15 yards, unsportsmanlike conduct: taunting.

Re the Vieluxe for sale

Looks to be in good shape:
Nameplate is not faded
Thermometer is not as miscalibrated as mine (or the one shown in https://www.anotherpintplease.com/blog//2014/08/the-vieluxe-little-weber-history-via.html)
Knobs don’t look weathered (difficult to tell from photo)
NG manifold

Anyone interested within range should fire off an OBO ASAP

If I was in range I would have to buy it and figure out the details with the Wife later.

Well that Vieluxe looks like a beaut! Josh, you could do WAY worse than grab that. But I would not bother trying to flip it. IMO it would be a keeper. Those have the best of what Weber ever made.

The single pic does look beautiful.

There is so much history in that shot! I'm surprised we hadn't seen it before.

Always liked Steven, I have 3 of his books, but with the internet being what it is, those books don’t get opened up like they used to
