Title: Sho yer Joes!
Post by: Duke on July 15, 2013, 03:51:34 PM
With all of the anticipation over the red smokey joe on ebay, how about if we show some of ours? Harris knew I was looking for a blue wave and turned me on to a person in selling this on CL a couple weeks ago. It came in a few days ago. I didn't waste any time fitting it with an O'Neal.

My Smokey Joe Silver with steamer pot mod- converting it to a very functional Mini WSM
The modifications to the actual Smokey Joe improve its function

The handles are still covered with painters tape, still need to add some finishing touches to the pant job, and add 2-3 coats of clear coat.

There's some beautiful looking SJ's on this thread
There such a great little grill and obviously popular otherwise Weber would of discontinued them
Great to see you got the blue you've been chasing Duke
I guess there's only another a half dozen euro colors your chasing now ;)
The Simpsons SJ seems to be the most popular of all the logo'd SJ's
They seem to pop up regularly on CL and eBay , anyone know how Weber rolled them out?
Were they available in stores or used for competition prizes ,etc?
Title: Re: Sho yer Joes!
Post by: Tim in PA on July 16, 2013, 05:07:51 AM
Duke, that turquoise is awesome!




Everyone,
I'm interested in a colored SJ for my son to use first as a toy so he can pretend he is grilling while I grill. Once he is older I envision him actually using the grill to cook his own hot dogs and such. Turn him into a grillfella early. He is only 8 months right now so I have time to find the perfect color lol.

So, if anyone is interested in selling a fancy color let me know. If it isn't too much and my wife gives her blessing I'll pounce! (She really loves the CB green so that is my first choice.)

Nice looking SJ's on here, where does everyone get those exotic colored Smokey Joes'

All I have ever seen was black.  Would love to get a hold of a blue one.

I did see a Sam Adams Branded light brownish gold SJ,  I should have asked the Store manager if he would be willing to part with it after the promotion...

I agree the Smokey Joe is a very versatile grill.  I am using mine as a Shichirin/Konro  -Japanese Yakitori grill/ a Mini Smoker and my go to grill for a quick cast iron skillet blackened fish.

Very cool Joe's and mods. LandgraftJ you wouldn't happen to be getting that dark green one in Jeffs picture would you? ???
Chadrex, you are this first person I have seen drill holes and put that OT damper handle for the bottom damper since me. I think it's nice looking. Great job!

Here's the one we had to say goodbye to. I made it for my son and his condo-neighbor grabbed it from under their porch and (along with a planter) put it in the trash. They recovered the planter but the cooker was gone.  >:(

(https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-oPuyLxASJDo/S8ZsIQx2vhI/AAAAAAAAN2w/dfjYg-b3yTI/s800/DSC_1611-PP.JPG)

Here's the NIB CGA I got from G and after I put some nice handles on it and cleaned it up (polishing the vent covers was all that was really needed.) Did you know that back in the day, "Go Anywhere" referred to cookers with and without corners?

(https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-hn25jnkhde8/UdDxujEf_xI/AAAAAAAASKQ/qHYzMQt5yC8/s800/DSC_6852-PP.JPG)

Awesome collection Hank! Where's the offset you mentioned though?  By the way, I don't even know we call them 'offsets' when they are centered. I like panhandle better. The newer styles have the offset handles. I will try and get some of my others ready and post them here. They just need to be cleaned up.

Entirely different offset. You've seen a picture and probably repressed it (http://weberkettleclub.com/forums/off-topic/forgive-me-father-for-i-have-strayed/).   ;D

Almost forgot about mine - a trade with a member from a while back. Added the Brianwood handle with the cool inserts to this SJP and now it's perfect.

Harris, I'd love to see that photographed alone on a more neutral backdrop. Outdoors would be great, but find a spot that doesn't have a lot going on in the background, and a cloudy day or early light might be best so as to avoid harsh glare and reflections. This kettle deserves to be recorded for posterity in the right way, as do many other member's kettles. I don't have an SLR, but I try to apply these tips whenever I'm photographing stuff. Here are a couple links we could all learn something from. Different subject (Bicycles, another hobby of mine) but the recommendations would apply equally well to kettles.

Yep, I know what you mean and will do so in the near future. I was eager to get some pics out.  Yesterday was a cloudy day.  You can actually see the clouds reflection in the grill.  It has a lot of shine.  There are two professional photograhers who live in my neighbrohood.  I am seriously considering hiring one of them for a "family" photo and some individual shots.

Rescued from the back of a pickup truck parked next to me at the grocery store.  $45 and we were both very happy.

Post by: Duke on July 19, 2013, 12:59:00 PM
I bought it a couple years back on ebay. It's around a '72 or '73. This style doesn't come up too often. The made a green, yellow, brown and black speckled as well.

Thanks all. I think the brown is a 1970. Dig those crazy legs. Got it at an estate sale for $8. Never used. The Black 1981, another estate sale score NIB, $10. It still has the booklet attached to the lid. The 2000 Homer I got from Amazon when they were blowing them out for $19,. Never used. The black 2002 I found at a garage sale for $5. Only used a couple of times. I keep the unused ones on display up in my bar. I will do a complete family portrait when I finish fixing up my Ranch Kettle!  8)

Keep 'em coming!

Those blue ones seem to be popping up a bit lately
I have the euro Blue Wave SJ and it looks similar to the SJ in your first pic Duke, the blue colors you mentioned, are they the weber name for those colours?
Is the Grey still available from C&B?
What is the SS cable on the black SJ?

I love the pic too... The SJ's are on top of a cabinet in my dining room and they greet me every time I walk in the back door, which is quite often seeing as my beer fridge is out back. They've taken the place of my kids photos , hence the Family plaque thingy. Missus is not too happy but kids pics are now up on the wall
The SJ on the left is forest green with Heineken logo although it looks black in the pic, Golly gave it to me for my bday, some of you may remember he drove 8hrs the other week to pick it up, thanks mate
The legs are all bent out of shape, I spent some time trying to straighten them but there a bugger  to restraighten , guess I'll be getting some new ones

That's a nice lime SJ and the logo isn't bad either. I wish they would just put logos on handles so we could remove them if we wanted.
