I have the side grates to hold the charcoal to each side and smoke in the middle. Love my webber.

If the gas grill fits your need then you win. Enjoy your new grill!

That thing is over priced and overrated.

What was your problem with charcoal?

Damn straight!!! I will!!!!! :thumb:

I already have a couple threads out there about this that I am sure you participated in so I am not going to rehash my problems with charcoal in this thread.

something I need not worry about anymore. ;)

Impatience usually does it. Get up early, start the fire up and go mow the yard or something.

I have a weber chimney starter and it literally takes only 8-10 minutes to get the coals red. I don't see how anyone could have problems with charcoal.

Point being, grill with what you prefer to grill with. Some folks like Charcoal. Some folks like gas. Glad you found what makes you happy, Guru.

Hootie mult.

You've obviously never used one.

$700 for a charcoal cooker shaped like an egg? No ****ing way would I pay that.

For the record, I am holding on to my Weber for running out of gas issues and when I am cooking for more than just my family.

If you are good cook, and know the characteristics of the cut of meat you are using, you can turn out incredible food on either a gas or charcoal grill. Anyone that says otherwise simply doesn't know how to cook on one or the other properly.

FTR, I have both. I prefer my gas grill on weeknights after work, but enjoy cooking on the weber kettle as well. I also have a WSM, and use it to smoke all the time. Smoked trout today. Having said that, a weber kettle is a very capable smoker if you know how to use it.

You can also smoke on a gas grill. Simply place wood chips in foil, poke done holes in it, and throw it over the burner.

My thoughts exactly. My WRM only costs $100 at Walmart. I'm not gonna attempt to spend an extra $600-$700 on that shit.

Charcoal all the way.
