Title: CL Score
Post by: cbpeck on June 24, 2016, 02:35:03 PM
Well, it happened. I finally picked up my first Performer. It's a black AD model with propane ignition, so hardly a rare bird. But I got the grill, with deluxe cover & Weber chimney for $107! The man was upgrading to a Traeger.  ::)

I'm going to have to part ways with my main cooker (a green '11 OTG) to keep the MRS happy. Fortunately, my uncle is all too happy to give it a home.

I was always a bit of a skeptic about the propane ignition, but I think I'll end up liking it, and the counter top space will certainly come in handy. The grill is only two years old, so it cleaned up like new. I wanted to post a pic, but I've forgotten how! I'll go look it up now.

Ahhh, thank you. It has been a while since I checked the age guide. Good refresher!

Nice score on the AD, I love mine and the gas assist start is so worth it.
Now you need to find a rotisserie to add on to it.

Love the gas assist!

It's the number one performer feature in my opinion. I love cooking on the old vintage kettles in my collection, but the gas assist just makes it all so easy.

Just push your pile of extinguished coals over the burner tube, add some fresh on top, push the button and you're off!
