Interesting, particularly some of the excesses people will go to (and without any real benefit.) Hundreds of thousands of dollars for an outdoor kitchen and nothing that burns charcoal!  ::)

Too bad they screwed up on the aspect ratio.

After watching Modern Marvels, I saw that weber also has video tours of their kettle and gasser factories.

I love how the expert at the start said BBQ is 180-225 degrees. 180?!  I'd be better off putting meat on my dashboard in the summer.

It's out of the ordinary, but I'll run tri-tip that low to get pulled beef......not something I need to be in a hurry for....... ;D
A little higher up 220~235, for much less time, to chunk for burnt ends......

I thought the kettles were still made in Palatine, whil gassers were made in Huntley?  ???  Did they consolidate? If so, I wonder if we'll see "HUNTLEY, IL" on the vents in the coming years?

One method of cooking standing rib roast is to start at a higher temperature and then hold at 140°F. It doesn't really cook further at that temperature. Difficult to do w/out specialized equipment but supposedly works well.
