I own a a Weber Performer. Not the deluxe. It's the one with the folding table. I love the grill, but there are some things I would like to improve on it. The biggest 2 things are that the table is kind of on the short side, and that the wire tray at the bottom has twice now slipped out, as it can't seem to hold too much stuff.
First the table. There is at least another foot and a half of room or so to somehow extend the table and still be able to fold it. I have a couple ideas floating in my head on how to do this, but I was wondering if anyone has done something like this yet successfully?
For the wire tray, I was thinking maybe a few twist ties might do the trick, but if anyone has done anything cooler than that, again, I'd live to know.
I did also garbage pick a second lid, which will be my smoking lid. I bought a felt gasket to glue around it, a good thermometer to go almost grate level under the damper, and some silicone to seal up underneath both thermometers to stop smoke from leaking. Also, I'm in Buffalo, so I'm debating doing a paint job on the second lid with high temp paint to make it look like a Bills helmet, but that's not something I'm looking to do right now. The shelf and tray are my priority mods.
Let me know what you all think.
