SJ Platinum really coming back!?!?
I just ordered a cooking grate for a SJP, and the customer service agent said that Weber was bringing back the SJ Platinum. I've heard rumors before, but not from a Weber employee. I hope she is right.

Four or five years ago I picked up the last SJP that our hardware store had for a Christmas gift for myself... They had it marked down to $39.99 since it was the "end of the season", and I loved it so much I wanted another and found out they quit making them. Gonna have to get another one for my wife for Christmas now

I see it's listed as 18". Has anyone verified that its 18.5" so all our toys will fit?

I wonder of the new ones will use the same 17-1/2 grates from the other 18.5 grills and smokers, or an odd size like the old Jumbo Joes (17-7/?
It says is has an 18.5 inch grate, which should mean it fits an 18.5 grill, not that the grate is 18.5 inches. CD |

Woo-Hoo!! Me likey!
Of course, since I have a cajun bandit modded 22.5, I essentially have a 22.5 SJ anyways... heavy sumbiscuit tho... Now if they would just start making a 26.75 platinum or performer...

The SJP/Jumbo Joe cook grates are slightly larger than the 18.5" kettle grates-
don't ask me how I know this?
