At Walmart yesterday….
I was picking up a few things grocery related and couldn’t help myself without cruising the Grills before leaving. A young couple were looking at a new Grill. They had chosen a Kingsford Charcoal grill. It was 119.00 USD. The Weber One Touch Premium was next to it. 149.00. I said “Weber” is my charcoal grill of choice. They asked why…. and well… I told them. With proper care and a cover the OTG will outlast any charcoal grill on the shelf. He almost picked up the Jumbo Joe. It was $68.00 I told them of the benefits of the OTG and the larger Lid. The Mrs. Said Gas is so much easier. I looked at the young man and said… “Real men don’t use Propane”… we had a good chuckle. Helped them pick out a Weber Chimney Starter. The Wife said, Why not use Lighter Fluid??? YIKES!!!! I said.. And then smiled and said. If you like the taste of lighter fluid go ahead and get that. I spun the fact that if you pay $15.00 for the Chimney, you will save A LOT of $$$ versus buying Fluid in the long run. He agreed and I loaded them up with all things Weber. I told him to register that new grill with Weber as soon as he could.
I then went to Lowes to pick up some charcoal. Guess whom I saw at Lowes buying charcoal??? Yep... you guessed it… He had 1 twin pack in his basket, I had 8 twins on my flatbed cart.. We just smiled at each other and the rest you can say is history…
I guess you can say I was an enabler of Weber-itis…
Grill on folks… grill on….
