Yes folks the warmer weather is quickly approaching us once again.
I've been checking out the new 2004 model grills and I'm just having a hard time not buying one... Fotrunantly for me as much as I would love a nice 4 burner stainless steel grill, I have no need for one of that size. A 2 burner would be more than adiquate.
But... I'm a old charcoal diehard... I like the flavor, and the smell. Propane is more like cooking on a stove (outdoors) than anything else and you cannot smoke on a propane.
Sooooooooooo , here I sit with my delema. Should I or shouldn't I... [img]/forums/images/icons/crazy.gif[/img]
I already own 2 Webers (kettle & table top), 1 barrel grill/smoker and 2 table top propane bottle types (1 worn out the other goes on the road with me). I use the worn out table top for the fast grill'n needs or after dark times, but I'm getting tired of having to replace those little 1 lb bottles every 4th use, not to mention it gets expensive compared to a 20lb bottle.
I love my collection of grill, but I need to thin them out... [img]/forums/images/icons/frown.gif[/img]
One thing I have noticed with this yrs model and that is they have gotten away from Lava rocks... but are designed with brass burners and heat deflectors.
Sorry, but I thought that the lava rocks helped with the flavor from previous meat drippings to add some flavor.. you might want to say were seasoned.
I suppose you could put a piece of expanded metal over the burners and still add the rocks. [img]/forums/images/icons/ooo.gif[/img]
