The Good One is a great grill/smoker. My only problem with them is that the small sized one (for around $1000) simply doesn't hold much food. I like a smoker I can do a butt, a packer cut brisket, three slabs of ribs, and some chicken all at once. For that, I'd have had to go up to the next size Good one, and it was like $1600

That's the biggest advantage of briquettes. They burn very evenly.
I have very few problems with hot spots on my grill, and I use almost exclusively lump charcoal.

I doubt anyone could tell the difference if you gave them a double blind test, unless you used woodchips or something with smoke. For grilling (not smoking) there are things I like using charcoal for and there are things I like using gas for. If I come home from work hungry, I just want to fire up the grill and have it be ready immediately. Cleaning out ash sucks too. When I use charcoal, I want to cook a LOT of meat with it at once, hence a smoker.

Gas grills are great, if I want 10 hour smoked bbq I will just go out to eat.

Since grilling is such a short period of time to be over the fire I use gas. More convenient and I can't really tell the difference when you're only talking 10 -12 minutes.

I'll use my smoker if I'm going to be cooking any longer than that.

When do stores put their grills on sale?

One of our grills is/was a Weber 300q, but the Kansas wind has annihilated it. I am thinking about replacing it with a 200q or another 300.

Does anyone have the 200?

I've never investigated the grills you mentioned. They seem pricey for what they are. The 200q uses the little propane cylinders, not the 20 lb. tanks like the 300q. I don't know if there's a way to adapt the 200q to use the large tanks.

Thanks. They make an adapter for 20lb tanks.


They are expensive but they do a great job, and if they are not left out in the Kansas Wind they should last forever.

The KS wind? What? Just get a decent grill cover.

Stewie 07-27-2013 10:38 AM
This grill gets high ratings from Consumer Reports and gets their "best value" designation. Just thought I'd throw it out there.

For the money, that grill isn't bad. I've run a shit load of steaks and a pile of fish over one and if it blew up tomorrow it wouldn't owe me a dime.

SW Kansas wind is 11tybillion times worse than East Kansas.


It laughs a grill covers, then it proceeds to toss the grill down a field 100-150 feet.
