Looks like Crimson.

Or Burgundy.
Has anyone ever done a side by side comparison with euro burgundy and plum? From the pictures the plum looks like it has more purple in it.

^^ Those are burgundy. More red, less purple to them.
I've never seen any Plum portables shared here. I've seen 18s, 22s and I think maybe an SSP. No Master-Touch.
Obviously the CGA there, being colored, predates Crimson, and they don't make a Crimson CGA today.
And Crimson would be a matte finish instead.

See the europe models on http://blog.grilykrby.cz/proc-je-dobre-mit-maly-gril (http://blog.grilykrby.cz/proc-je-dobre-mit-maly-gril)
One of them seems like the kettle you wrote

Pretty close... hard to say with the lighting. Maybe we need to send a Canadian crimson down under for a side-by-side comparison... 8).
1112304 is the serial number for the Euro crimson, and 1112301 is the Canadian crimson (no taco handle).
@Hogsy , do you have the box/serial number for your Euro plum?
My vote is Euro Brick Red. Too shiny for crimson.
@SixZeroFour
Looks like brick red to my eyes as well. It's essentially a gloss finished version of the crimson color
"My" DD plum OTP. Looks more purply.

@DrewZ Your pic looks like it was taken on an overcast day (did I say "overcast", that's one of my favorite brews: Oakshire Overcast Espresso Stout, yummmm). Please take another on a sunny day, same location, etc. I'm beginning to question my own color sanity ;D :)
SJ
These are a couple pics of my plum SSP.

Nice SSP. That's the next color to find for my collection. Beautiful.
@mhiszem that looks like burgundy to me , but I guess it's all here say on the actual colours until we see some proof. Like catalogues or boxes

Yeah, I would be curious to see the catalogs back then or what the item number descriptions are.

@Winz Did you come across any catalogs that call out the colors when you did your performer or smokey joe history?
I still say Plum right up there.
And this being the Internet, I can never be wrong, which comes in handy.

We have a rather extensive database of the SJ model numbers/colors/logos, but no mention of plum/burgundy.... so far....

Been doing some research with RR, here's some info from catalogues dated 1994-2002. No mention of Plum or brick red and only maroon is in the gas BBQ range. Interesting brown is called brown and not chocolate

Thank You Hogsy, RR & Addicted 2 Smoke ... a very interesting cruise down technicolor lane. I still need to see the SSP listings for colors to find my EO-codes "true" nomenclature. :)
