Newbie Grill Advice

Postby Adgolelin » Fri Aug 21, 2020 8:41 am

I'm just getting into grilling, and I'm looking for a new charcoal grill. I read a lot of Weber Grills Reviews, but I wanted to get a second opinion. I'm thinking of going with the classic Weber kettle I can pay a lot of money because I play online blackjack, this article https://canadiancasinos-online.com/online-blackjack.php help me to choose useful casino with blackjack games...Thanks for your advice.

They don't even make my favorite Charcoal Pit any longer but when I do replace it I'm going with the large size Old Smoky. Then it will be it and the Pit Boss 340 Pellet Pooper. Good Luck :tup: :salut:

Don’t own a Weber myself but my BIL has been cranking out some real good food on his for nearly 30 years. Very versatile units. And really the only complaints I’ve ever heard anyone say was wished they had bought bigger. I would love to have one of their “ranch hand ?” units. Just can’t bring myself to part with the cash.

I have a mini kettle at the lake house and love it. I suspect a full size one would serve you well.

I have two 22” Weber kettles and love them. Well made and there tons of accessories available for them but you can do most anything you want with a kettle and a couple of charcoal baskets.

I've had a Weber grill since 2002. My 22" Silver charcoal grill lasted for 19 years until the handle finally rusted off. That thing went through at least an actual ton or more of charcoal. It was replaced by a 26" Gold kettle. That thing is a beast, but its weight tends to stress the welds on the leg mount and I had to warranty a bowl replacement after several years. Still, it holds a tone of food.

I would go with a 22" Weber Silver or Gold kettle as a first grill. They hold up ridiculously well, have a ton of accessories and are versatile enough to grill direct or indirect. Heck, you can even find them in different colors. The only drawback to them is a lack of a table or work surface. That is easily remedied with accessories. Back in the day, I could even disassemble my kettle and slip it in the trunk of my car for club meets and picnics. It's just an awesome grill.

You can see one of these options https://mykitchenadvisor.com/best-charc ... under-200/. They are in different price categories, different manufacturers. Everyone seems to be good for the price. But Weber and Kamado are top brands.
