The BBQ and Smoking Thread

[killramos]

I love bbq.

[rx7boi]

Time to ditch my old ass BBQ and get a new one.

I'd like to stay under $700. What's good out there?

I don't cook for big groups (5+) except maybe once a year.

[killramos]

Costco still have napoleons on the floor?

A big grill has benefits beyond making more food (indirect cooking etc).

500sqin is the sweet spot imo.

[ercchry]

A napoleon for under $700 sounds unbeatable, do that

Not under 700, but getting there

Rogue is the made in China stuff, same as Costco stuff. But you have to give somewhere to get a bbq for that price.

Definitely take a walk through Costco to see if they still have any.

Red knobs for all your grilling needs!

Thanks meng. I'll definitely check out that Napoleon grill. I usually cook for 2-4 people max but fully take your point on having more room.

What's the skinny on Weber?

Webber also makes a good grill.

I actually want that lol

I would just spend a little more and get a good pellet grill. I rarely use my gas bbq now but the smoker is my new work horse.

@ExtraSlow

P, make my life decisions for me so I can pull a Mar and buy a used NexGrill from Forest Lawn instead.

This week I made the cast iron cookie for my daughter with a (not picutred) smoked bourbon whip. And some meat candy aka pork belly burnt ends that i added to my burgers i make, essentailly like bacon on a burger but much much better.

Since you aren't likely to beat the deal I got, why not go to a real BBQ store and see what they have. Bestbuy, nah.
Cheap end, but fine quality: https://barbecuesgalore.ca/collectio...ch-320-propane
They sell that Same weber Spirit E315 for $699 as well

I would argue that both tools are good for different things and neither does the job of the other very well.

I can save $200 and spend it on whores and coke instead?

Adding it to the list. Knew you'd pull through as usual.

nah, with a solid cast iron for searing you really dont need the gas grill. I have both as well as a charcol grill for ease but if i had to choose i would go with a pellet grill for sure out of all of them.

Looks like prices have jumped up quite a bit on grills compared to last.

I went a bit overboard and bought a big one last year and even when cooking for just my family its been nice to have the extra space.

[Disoblige]

I'm sure Superstore will get the same deal on the Weber this year too, probably?
I was debating over the Weber and I had lots of time to buy it. Just decided not to because I got a free BBQ that works decent.

[ExtraSlow]

You don't HAVE to spend it on coke and whores, but I think it would be irresponsible NOT to.

[dirtsniffer]

Damn, I already posted the 22"! oh well. Cleaned it up at lunch today. Ready for a brisket.

Did some deer jerky last night. Two batches in Green Egg, two in the oven.
