Hello Richard,


I just fired up the Weber with Kingsford charcoal. Couldn't find any
mesquite in the store. Or lighter fluid, for that matter - but gasoline
burns off quickly. Tonight is chicken thighs, lamb chops, bratwurst,
polish
sausage, and Hebrew National jumbo beef weiners. And I bought a big
Costco
shrimp cocktail plate for the cold side.


Man, you must have a healthy appetite. Or a big family :-)

Three adults, three teens, a dog, unpredictable number of neighbor kids.

Ever tried Johnsonville Brats? Our Costco has them again after we turned
in one of those suggestion sheets complaining that we miss them. We poke
them with a fork a few times so they come out more lean.

We start the Weber with a starter chimney. Coal into the top, two
crumpled newspaper pages into the bottom, and 1/2 hr later it's all
nicely glowing. Usually the quantity of coal in that chimney is
sufficient. Walmart has them as well as ACE Hardware and others, usually
under $10. No fuel smell whatsoever.

Also we buy a big bag of hickory chips and another with mesquite chips.
Lasts the whole year. Then before season is over we stock up our
charcoal, big time, to last through the winter. Sometimes we snatch
coals out of the wood stove and that's like an instant start.

My dream would be an extender ring to be able to cook turkeys larger
than 16-18lbs. Some day I'll have time and make one.
