Here's a change of topic that will get everyone wanting to go out to their back patio and grill something for dinner.... The amazing, ubiquitous, legendary, Weber Kettle charcoal grill. Seen in probably everybody's backyard since 1952.  My wife and I enjoyed steaks and corn on the cob (wrapped in foil & butter) on the grill for dinner. Mmmmm... Nothing can compare! ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/jEfq8e2.jpg)

Have had mine for 13 years. I think I’m ready for an upgrade, but this one won’t die.

First one (made in USA) lasted a good 14-15 years with heavy use.
Bought the last generation some 4 yrs ago (assembled in US w/foreign parts)- thing is shot.
Cracked table, ash fan rusted and broke, ash pan distorted.
They want $500 for them now, off to look elsewhere.

Yep. Used it to make burgers last night.
Between the old trusty kettle and the pellet smoker, I can bbq about any way you want.

Yeah....I'm not really into that. How 'bout doing a Santa Maria style Tri-Tip on an open pit wood grill cooked over red oak. I'm all over that chit. Tony ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/eaT2OZ7.jpg)

Run it up, until you blow it up, then back it down a bit.

There is NO bbq grill better than a full size weber when used with wood charcoal. If you know how to grill and If you take care of it.

I loved the Weber kettle grills but the last 2 had the bottom rust out before payments were made. Never again

Ive used home built grills outta oilfield casing.
Hard to wear out a .250” wall grill vs a sheetmetal stamped grill.

Good times in the backyard.

In-laws got us one for a wedding present in '79. It gets used a dozen or so times a year and has always been stored in the garage. Solid as the day it was built. No rust at all.
