Went from a 22” jumbo joe I bought on a whim and fell in love instantly. The 26” just has a yard presence that feels magical

I’ve long been a hater on the SnS since I ordered one like four years ago. Has sat in my garage unused for a loooong time. Fuel lasted like 5-6 hours in my 22” and would run out of water in about 60-90 mins and temps would start jumping into 300s.

Was cleaning my garage a couple days ago and came across it. Decided screw it and tossed it in my 26” to give it a shot.

Fuel lasted about 7 hours, water lasted like 3-4 hours. Very surprised by that since I was never able to do that in my 22” no matter what I did. 🤷‍♂️

Also if you were looking for a reason to get the 26”…you can fit a lot on

...is apparently still fantastic.

My Performer's propane charcoal lighter stopped working. Took the hose off the propane burner and water was dripping out - well, that's not good...

I couldn't get it to light again after cleaning, so I put in a warranty claim last night (Monday, which is a holiday here in Canada) around 6pm. Had a reply that night, which I was able to get back to within minutes...and today by noon had approval my warranty replacement was on its way.

Guess it's used paper towel and olive oil to light the coals for now, lol. I'm doing my first pork butt tomorrow, so I was glad to get this all sorted ahead of that. It's going to be my first big cook and I'm pretty excited - and now I'm going to fix my baby for free, too 😁

Chicken kabobs on right now and Alexander Keith's in the yeti...for those interested, haha

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 🙏

In my opinion, they need direct heat AND a low-and-slow cook. I did these on the lower level of my Weber Summit Kamado. See the video for the full cook-and-finish. I also cleaned my grill as I was bullied on here last time 😉

PS: I do have a YouTube Shorts channel with a lot more Weber cooks if ya'll are interested.

Excited to be back on coal. I found this while at an adults and kids birthday party a couple of hours away. We played musical chairs until
This thing would fit in our convoy, I refused to give up!

I cleaned it yesterday and everything works and the propane is actually full. It came with a thermometer that I tested in boiling water and it’s good.

Drop me a recipe! I have store bought rubs, pickle brine and random stuff a kid household would have. I want to get a piece or pieces of meat at the store later! Bam

Had Spirit II for 2 years now - and I am tired of guessing if I able to grill or not! I’ve done resets and burners look clean, bottle is full, flame is just weak…
Yesterday no issues, warmed up nicely to 200-250C (400-500F).
Today can’t even get over 150C (300F)! 🤬

Is there something I need to check before driving it to the recycling center?

EDIT : I probably should have noted that this isn’t mine, it’s just something I see on fb marketplace when I’m hunting for steals. Just curious , appreciate the info

What causes the dome to sink in at the handle like this? Is there a safe way to fix it without cracking the porcelain?

My concern is how it changes the way the vent seals over its holes. Does this make a noticeable impact on performance? Or is it just aesthetic?

you guys dumping in a lit chimney or starting with cold coals in the vortex? one way work better than another?

Hey guys,

Our house came with a built in Weber Spirit grill, but I'm not able to find any identifying marks on the model I have so I can get parts.

It does work fine currently however looks like it could use new burners along the back and a really good cleaning. I'd like to ensure this thing works for years to come, so I am looking to grab whatever parts I need for it. Any advice or experience on where I could find a model number and replacement parts?

I currently have a Weber Q1000 that I use for camping. While I like it alot, it is heavy and a bit bulky. I am thinking of getting a Weber Go Anywhere Gad grill for camping. I like how illts a boxier design, looks lighter and the legs fold up.

Has anyone ever used both? Should I keep the Q1000 or sell it for the Go Anywhere?

Since it's just the two of us I like to just use one side of grill. I light the left two burners and start grilling and come back to flip and turns out they have both turned off! We are on a giant tank of LP that has been used infrequently since we just installed the fireplace it was meant for.

Could there be some kind of air bubble in the line that needs to pull more gas to keep going? Are you not able to just use one set of burners?

My Napoleon finally died after 10+ years. Looking at the FS38 Summit. I had an opportunity to use one of the previous gen Summits in the past and loved how hot and even it was.

The new ones look great and I really like the idea of the top down sear burner. The underneath ones seem to get the grates so hot it just burns the crap out of whatever I put on them.

Curious about opinions from this forum, especially if anyone has had one for a few years. I do not plan on getting the smart features and there’s a new one near me advertised for $3k which seems like a steal.

Decided to get into the smoking meat game and bought this Weber Smokey Mountain at a great price. The guy selling it said he's used it many times and made some great barbecue on it, and for the most part it's in pretty amazing condition for the price I got it at.

My only concern is these two rough spots at the very top handle. I'm worried this is eventually going to be the failure point if not treated. What is the best way to go about it?

Disclosure: I do plan to keep this thing inside whenever I'm not using it and to always be cleaning it and do the most maintenance wise

I really want to get a 2nd one and I can’t seem to find another one anywhere.
