Bullpen Posted February 5, 2010 Posted February 5, 2010 I just bought a stainless Weber grill. I have christened it- Promo. I have one of those myself, as well as a cast iron "barrel type" offset smoker, electric grill and a regular gasser, you won't be disappointed with the Weber at all dib! Here's a good site for all kinds of bbq recipes. http://www.thesmokering.com/default.jsp The forums section has a ton of tips and recipes as well! Good luck!
plenzmd1 Posted February 5, 2010 Posted February 5, 2010 So I have both a weber gas grill and weber smoker, (plus an electric smoker for when i be lazy), but thinking of ditching the smokers for a Big Green Egg. I hear they are fantastic, any body any experience with them? Most people who have them are fanatics, and i even see some folks in BBQ compitions using them on the TV

I hear they are fantastic, any body any experience with them? Most people who have them are fanatics, and i even see some folks in BBQ compitions using them on the TV It's quite an initial investment if you get the egg (various sizes available), the tables if you want a work station, etc... but from the reviews I've read it's quite worth it. The only thing I question is the durablitiy because it is ceramic. I'm sure professionals travel with them all the time, but the ham and eggers (no pun intended) like us, I would be afraid of cracking it or something. To me the weber is the original and it's what I grew up learning on, so I'm pretty happy with it... along with the other three smokers/grills I own. (My wife said "really? You need FOUR grills?") She doesn't know the difference between a grill and smoker, so I let it slide.

They look very nice and they are expensive but I'm a big believer in you get what you pay for. If you get one let me know what you think.

My charcoal Weber gave up the ghost at last and I want an egg. Now, to get the purchase request approved by accounting...
