    Default RIP Weber grill

    I bought my weber grill in 1998 and it has got no lovin in the 14 years it spent outside on the deck.Rain,snow,ice without a cover,this beast of a grilling machine gave up the ghost last night,right after I took my 16 inch brook trout off the grate (caught it last Sunday ice fishing). The bottom tray rotted off as well as a large piece of the original burner.That was the best 550.00 I ever spent,and you can bet there will be another weber on the deck by the weekend.. Let me know if you ever got 14 years out of your fav grill. I doubt it !!!!

    Damn sad day.

    Make a flower pot out of it; then it can be right there, next to the new one.

    Gotta love weber.. My kettle is the best grill I have ever owned.

    My buddy has a weber that was his dad's and is well over 20 years old.

    . I think the plastic wheels are what will go first on mine

    In 23 years I've had 4 Webers 3 kettles and a gas, the first kettle was a 24" red monster I used it tell the leggs fell out from under it with about 10lbs of beef on it, washed off the meat, put the grill body in a large flower pot , put the coals back in and finished cooking.
    The other three are 24" 14" and the gas that I used this very night. I also use the weber chemines that I can not count how many of those Ive had.
    Love the WEBER!!!!!!!!!!!( and KINGSFORD)

    My family had the same weber kettle from before my birth until shortly before my 18th birthday.
    No that pistol isn't the only thing under my kilt, but I can tell you both of them work just fine
