150$ grill..

 

THIS!

You are paying for name only when you purchase a Weber...

I worked at Home Depot and put them together daily and there is nothing special about a Weber over any of the cheaper brands. All parts are the exact same with the exception of you paying 3x as much for replacement parts for Weber

 

hm. what would you recommend? looking for something with those extra features, work surface, charcoal cleanout, tool hanger, etc etc that my basic little guy doesn't have.

 

Do you smoke or just open flame grill?

 

currently only open flame. still learning.

 

Are you dead set on charcoal?

 

I want charcoal as an option. Love charcoal.

This is honestly what I'm currently using https://www.walmart.com/ip/Expert-Grill-22-Inch-Charcoal-Grill/54891443

 

Get a barrel smoker with a side fire box.

Grilling open flame in the side fire box is perfect for 2 people. You have a large grill area for more people. And you can indirect smoke when the time comes.

 

recommendations?

This is what I just got rid of only because I had it for 3 years and the version I had they stopped making. I have a gas only right now but only because my mother n law is giving me her traeger they never use

BOOM! All birds 1 stone!

EDIT: and still cheaper than what you were originally looking at!

 

Currently have this. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Char-Gr...ill-Horizontal-Smoker-in-Black-1624/206282463

Works well, but doesn't retain heat / smoke as well as a nicer smoker. I like to smoke my butts for 16ish hours and its a full time job to maintain the temperature at 225. There are "mods" that can be done to it so it seals better, but i have not done them yet.

 

Propane grills......

 

I feel like the gas is a wasted feature for me.

 

Like. Might as well cook in cast iron on the stove.

 

I'm definitely a charcoal guy. Heck, I like even just lighting the charcoal and smelling it without any food on it haha!

 

Trust me I was as hard dick as you 2 are about charcoal too but there is something to be said about quick and convenient when you are really hungry and/or pinched for time

 

I won't grill when I'm in that sort of pinch.

 

I understand that and can appreciate the use of the gas grill in those situations. I would just assume use the stove in a pinched for time situation. 100 year old seasoned cast iron comes in clutch there.

 

You will when you are broke/poor,really craving it, or that's all you have...and DESPERATE!









nevermind, look at our vehicles...we live completely different lives.....you're never desperate
