I use mulberry in mine as much as charcoal, maybe more. Light it in a chimney just like the charcoal.
Mine was half-price at Lowes.
What fresh Hell is this?

I loved mine for many years, then got into the Weber gas grills and the Traeger pellet fired grill. Haven't looked back but my youngest son still cooks on his Weber Kettle. And I'll admit, he puts out some very good grub.
Someday someone may kill you with your own gun, but they should have to beat you to death with it because it is empty.

Paging 'Flave. Paging 'Flave. Dude has probably aced more food on a Weber than anyone else on the fire. My experiences are limited to a BGE, so I will not opine here. Looking forward to his feedback. Love him or hate him, the guy can flat out cook/grill.

I also think he's funnier than David Spade on an eight-ball, but understand that might be an acquired taste.

And they take falling off a porch much better than a Big Green Egg……. Fixed for a friend... +/-$200 to replace. Bad design to not come with a tether or hinge.

If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.

Guess I was showing out when I just assumed that I wasn't stupid enough to toss mine around like a slinky. Amazing.

Lot’s of cooking on the Weber Kettle over the decades. We are on our 3rd one. I have an almost unlimited supply of oak and hickory kindling wood. I use that to get a fire started and then throw the charcoal on the wood coals. The best way in the world (absolutely no lighter fluid) to get a fire going. I can cook over the charcoal or if I prefer, just get a good wood fire going and cook over the wood coals. Usually it’s charcoal though.

We enjoy ours. I went at far as to add the hinge to the lid, installed ports for thermocouples, and install the gasket to create a better seal. That’s getting serious there.
