Added the Weber Ranch Kettle to the stable

Czarbecue · 02-27-2019, 08:35 PM

I still can’t believe the kettle laid unclaimed for weeks in the buy/sell section from brethren Demosthenes9. So I bit. I said I’ll buy it if it was still available mid Feb and it was! Just a 7 hour drive north of Atlanta. Road trip, anyone?

I changed positions at my job so I’m moving back to a 9-5, M-F schedule, which I loathe. Last weekend was my last one that included weekdays so I took the opportunity to grab the kettle. Wife wanted to come along so we dragged the kids along too. Left Atlanta at 11pm on Wednesday night and arrived in Louisville around 7am. Had a pit stop for a chicken and cheese crispito somewhere near Manchester, TN. At 3 am, it was damn good.

Wife said I was crazy to spend this amount of money on a grill. But she thinks I can get the same kind at Walmart. So I said fine, buy your purses at Walmart too. I haven’t heard anything since.

Just got the vortex in today. The medium barely cleared the grates.

You should mount that on the Bandera Wagon!

That actually crossed my mind! Who needs a spare tire? But seriously, I probably couldn’t do it without extending the tongue a couple feet.

She could buy a lot of purses at walmart with that kind of money!

That thing is huge! How do you plan to use it? Do you regularly entertain and cook for large parties? Seems like overkill for small family cooking.

HogGrog · 02-27-2019, 09:13 PM

Congrats!

I have always thought the Ranch would be fun to cook on.

sudsandswine · 02-27-2019, 09:22 PM

Ive always wanted one of those, congrats. Cant wait to see some cooks.

I agree... says the guy with a shirley trailer that he uses to cook 2 racks of ribs or 1 brisket.

Brethren is going to need Long tongs

Stingerhook · 02-28-2019, 06:15 AM

Nice addition.

That particular unit gets seen in background shots quite often. Don’t guess I’ve ever seen one in action. Looking forward to some cooks.
