  • The Weber performer kettle is fantastic w/o mods or accessories but today we “Pimp my grill” to create my dream Weber kettle grill. We change the color, the handle, add a Slow ‘n Sear, Grillgrate, BBQ Guru (partyQ), a decal, etc. Modifications are so much fun. Hope you enjoy this one and I hope you share yours next!

Copying is my all time favorite thing. Thanks for the blueprint. Oh, and thanks for the mention. Love the looks of that cooker too.

    I have an 18 inch Weber kettle that I chose as a gift for a job well done at work a couple of years ago. The only upgrade I have is the food grate that hinges up on 2 sides to allow for charcoal tending during a cook. My star grill is a 25-year-old gasser Weber Genesis Silver B three burner with cast iron grate. I replaced the burner tubes once, the temperature gauge 3 times, the flavorizer bars a few times. I keep a cover on it and it stays on the screened in back porch. Every now and then I give it a pressure washing and it continues to perform like it was new. Weber builds a quality product that will give you a long grill life with reasonable care.

    For the same price as a slow n sear, I got a cast iron grate. Helps w/ heat retention and distribution, while my regular ol charcoal bin and cheap drip pan do the same thing as a slow n sear. Highly recommend going this route instead. Excited to try the maverick probes, since my thermapro just failed!

    • @BabyBackManiac
      @BabyBackManiac  5 лет назад +1

      Fantastic. In fact the bbq guru people once told me it was the very best set up for getting max temp control. It has to do with bringing temps down. temp controllers can easily bring up temps but when they overshoot in a ceramic, it takes forever to come back down...but since kettles don't hold heat well it actually makes it faster bring temps down. So the best of all worlds.
