Title: Smokey Joe Platinum or Go Anywhere charcoal
Post by: Eastex on August 19, 2012, 08:01:57 PM
I found a Ace that has both, can only pull the trigger on one, which would you choose and why?

The Platinum, hands down.
1. The Go Anywhere, while a Weber, is ugly.
2. The Platinum is a kettle.
3. The Platinum is not made by Weber anymore and is a collectable. You could probably buy it and sell it for a profit on ebay.
4. But still, if you want a Go Anywhere you can buy a used one at a yard sale easily. Can't find a Smokey Joe Platinum like that very often.

I agree, except I like how the GA's look. They are different and kind of serve a purpose. I would definitly grab the SJP though.

SJP!! GA's are a dime-a-dozen. I have one and NEVER use it, except once.
