Is it web-er or wee-ber

[JackandStacey]

So I'm still pretty new at this but I feel like I'm starting to earn my stripes. I hosted a party this weekend cooking everything on my 2 UDS's a a weber 22.5". One of my guest, who true Q'er as well, refer to my grill as a "wee-ber" have I been blaspheming calling my grill by the wrong name? I always thought they were Web-ers

 

[mrbill]

we-ber or web-er is okay. wee-ber is just plain wrong.

 

[Packmanjim]

Ohhhh noooooooo!

 

[peeps]

I have a Wee-ber Smokey Mountain..some just call it a mini

But really...it's Web-er.

 

[williamj]

Yup, Web-er

 

[popeye]

if you don't know a weeb-ber from a weber. you ain't a q'er

 

[BecknCO]

You've got it right, and it sounds like your guest is one of those jacka$$es that needs to correct everyone. My advice is to let him run around calling it a weeee - ber at a comp and get laughed at.

I think the inventor was Polish, so it is Vay-bar

OY-VAY.

dude, weber. weeber is ridiculous.

 

[Brauma]

A wee-beer is a small beer. And that's wrong too.

Web-er

 

[mbshop]

probably owns a beemer.

 

[jeffturnerjr]

psh. that's ridiculous. Its pronounced "wil-mer"

 

[sliding_billy]

I think your guest is a "wee-ner."

 

[Diesel Dave]

You're saying it right, but to each their own.
Your guest is just a wee-bit off his kettle

 

[JazzyBadger]

I've always called it a Spider, man.

 

[mikeleonard81]

Your guest probably boils his ribs before putting them on his wee-ber

 

[Harbormaster]

Your guest was confusing the Indiana college Weber State with a Weber kettle.

Weber State is Wee-ber State.

Weber ketlles are WEB-BERS.

It could be a regional dialect. When I moved from CA to NC I had lots of giggles over the way some words are pronounced here. Then came to find out that I was the one with the "accent".
I call mine a "grill", all 13 of them.

probably owns a beemer.

Beemer => 2 wheels
Bimmer => 4 wheels
:mrgreen:
FWIW

Weeber? That sounds like something you shouldn't say in school or church
