Firing up the RED Wood Dale........

[harris92]

The kids and friend asked me to cook them some chicken (threw on a steak too).  I told them to pick the grill.   After about 10 minutes of uncovering grills they settled on the '58/'59 Red Wood Dale  aka "Big Tomato"....   Sweet old grill and simple cook.....

I agree, that is a picture of Weber magic happening!

So awesome. I'm wondering about the weber naming. Wood Dale? And such. I've noticed on here people have what seems like model names. Not just sizes.

Love the ash pan on that with the leg relief notched. Big pan nice and close.

Wood Dale refers to Wood Dale, IL where the kettles were made from 1958-1964. They have the metal lid handles.

So when I hear wood dale, we're talk'n vintage. Gotcha.  Mine is an "O" and says Palatine Ill. Early 90's I think.

I love those old grills too. I wonder if there's any more good "finds" on Craigslist?

Those kids have great taste! Thanks for the pics, Stephen.
