Is lamb any good?

The prices always look good but I have never cooked lamb in my life it always gives me a little bit of an off vibe when I see the color in the coolers at the stores but the price is tempting
How do you smoke or grill it? Do you treat it like beef or pork?

Is the a Weber?

Seems like maybe the Weber kettle premium? No logo and an odd color. Price seems solid though

Spotted a master touch at the dump today

Was dropping off some stuff at the local dump today and noticed a master touch off to the side. One of the disposal workers had saved it and said he’d be grilling on it this weekend

A monumental day for me, feel like I officially became a man. Did indirect and direct method, charcoals weren’t hot enough to get a proper sear?

Fb marketplace find. Worth?

Hey I was looking to get a new grill since the one my wife and i picked up from someone’s driveway a few years ago is going bad. I saw this weber on marketplace and it looks like it’s in good shape, but I wasn’t sure which exact grills are good ones to look for. They want $150 which I feel like is a good price for it, especially if i just need to replace burners and stuff if I go check it out. Thoughts?

lid replacement for very old weber charcoal grill?

hi everyone! recently picked up an "old school" 22 inch weber charcoal grill.

it appears to be old enough to have predated the use of serial numbers.

unfortunately, the point where the wooden handle is connected to the rest of the grill lid has corroded away which makes grabbing/holding the lid a bit sketchy as one end of the handle is quite literally attached to nothing.

i've searched a bit online for a 22 inch lid replacement and is this just not a thing? i can't seem to find any even non-OEM lids to buy. i still have the original lid.

i'm quite confident it is out of the 10 year warranty so unfortunately that would be a no go. i'm not quite sure what generation this grill is or its model number.

i'd really like to buy a new lid/repair the original one if possible, but does anyone have any suggestions on how to go about it?

B&B vs. Kingsford??

Hi All - I bought 2x bags of B&B and excited to try them out (thx, sub!!). Question tho, as I’m used to cooking w/ Kingsford.

Most of the time/places I see B&B is for smoking, low and slow type of stuff (brisket & pork shoulder).. However, for your “everyday BBQ” (burgers, brats, fish, veggies, ribs) would you switch it up to the B&B??

Appreciate your advice!

Getting the hang of it

Have had my kettle for a little over a month, have tried a few different brands of charcoal and fire starters for my chimney (Never lighter fluid) and have finally got it down. I know the way i like to do it now and have found my groove. Have done Fajitas, Chicken, Sausage, and some burgers. I think i’m gonna dip my toe into the world of Smoking next.

Chimney Starter & Fire Safety

I am considering getting a chimney starter for a 22”Kettle located on a wood deck. The YouTube videos I see show massive sparks going everywhere when the lit charcoal is poured from the chimney…is that normal and this is a big fire hazard for a wood deck? The alternative is a MAP torch or fire starters and a lighter.

Replacing Flavorer Bars and Grates

Feel like this is a dumb question but wanted a second opinion. On my Weber Spirit II gas grill both the flavorizer bars and grill grates have rusted pretty bad, thinking of getting replacements. Is it worth going for Weber authentic parts or just get third party from amazon?

Switching from gas to charcoal

hi everyone I have a Weber Genesis II with 2 burners for about 6 years and it has served me well but I'd like to go charcoal. I am thinking a kettle 57 cm (26 in). I feel at ease working with charcoal since we have a portable charcoal (like smokey joe).

we are a family of 4 and we regularly have guests on the weekend. the Genesis II works but at times feels tight when cooking for 7 or 8 people. would the 57cm kettle be big enough for grilling for 7-8 people (the website say it is fine for 6-8 people but curious about your experience)?

Has anyone made the switch form gas to charcoal. Any downsides?

What I like about the gas burner is it is really quick to fire up and grill something after a long day at the office... what I don't like is that it is a glorified oven :) just kidding I like the temperature control on gas, that's really easy and useful

I've tried convincing my wife we need both but alas have been unsuccessful.

Griddle options for Weber Genesis II E-335?

Hey all,

Looking for griddle recommendations for a Genesis II purchased at Costco . I'd like a half insert and not a full.

Is the Weber insert worth it or other options maybe a bit cheaper?

Can't justify a Blackstone griddle since we have a Weber gas grill and put boss smoker. Hopefully there's a good griddle insert or even a cast iron or something that sits on the grates even.

Mainly for some el pastor tacos during summer, kids new favorite. Also where do you store your griddle attachment?

Thanks!;

Weber sending new lid and bowl

does anyone have any ideas of what I can do with the old lid and bowl? They came damaged and Weber is sending me a new bowl and lid. All I have to do is remove the hardware from the old one to the new one. The damage is chipped porcelain so nothing major. Is there anything I can do with those? Would it be cost-effective or easy to just buy replacement parts for everything except for the bowl and lid and put together another one so I have 2? it’s for the 26 in kettle..
