It took a while but I found a deal on a Performer in extremely good condition on CL. I got it for $175 with 7 bags of Kingsford.

Great pick up and with 7 bags of Kingsford I would say your ready to get to grilling. Love my Performer. It was my very first charcoal grill I ever bought. It does it all.

Nice job G. Same one I have, but I was green to cl and such so I bought new. All in the past and love my grills, but will always try to buy used.

It's funny. After using g the gas assist and being able to just run out to the Performer and not have to rustle around for s lighter and paper to get the chimney, I'd say a good deal on a Craigslist Performer is the absolute way to go. TD side table, it's got it all. Congrats, you're going to love it!

I prefer a G17....Nice grill I'm still amazed every time I cook on mine. Sometime I feel guilty about
neglecting my other kettles.

No she supplied them and I did the cook. I can't get her interested in grilling.

A woman that grills? That's on the casual encounters section, right?!

I set my wife up with a multi-zone fire and a cast iron pan and this is her favorite way to cook. She doesn't do it all the time
but she likes to when it's nice outside, that is if the meal she's preparing requires this style of cooking.
