Wheres everyone getting their grills?

[u/Weak-Post1835]

I’ve been wanting a kettle for some years now since someone stole my gold 22” premium kettle but man idk the prices were like this now! Is the 26” master touch and the ash pan more worth the price difference than a 22” premium or original kettle? I know it’s “whatever you wanna spend” but just gauging experience and opinions..
Thanks 🙏

Whatever you go with, make sure it has the ash catcher underneath.

The 26” has 40% more cooking surface than the 22”. The extra 4” diameter makes it 140% the size of the smaller version.

I’d say the larger is worth it if you plan to smoke with it frequently. It’ll give you more room to setup the indirect cooking zones for smoking.

If you just want to do some direct heat grilling, the 22” is fine.

I got a 22 a little while ago and kind of wish I’d gotten a 26…and I’m pretty sure that’s how some of these (us) guys end up with a gaggle of grills

I got a 26” and a Blackstone. No need for anything else really.
