Title: Christmas dinner on a Weber...
Post by: ramsfan on December 25, 2012, 11:11:51 AM
I'm just curious as to how many of us are cooking Christmas dinner on a Weber today? Anyone else besides me?

Gonna do some lobster tails on the grill, but the rib roast I did in the oven I did not want to experiment on a 20lb roast

Just did a pair of bone-in NY strip steaks on my gasser. Turned out great. My wife and I conspired on a batch of cream of crab soup, and that's always a winner. Add to that some sliced and sauted Yukon golds and carmelized onions and a couple Yuenglings and you have a very nice end to Christmas. We started the day with the grandkids and it was chaos, but a quiet evening in front of the fire helps.

I cooked my first brisket on my OTS on Christmas day. It was a 14 pounder. I also cooked an eight pound bone in turkey breast on my other Weber kettle. So the pressure was on me. Both turned out amazing.

All Family Xmas, 6-1/2 hour cook on Red SS, 10#'s of pulled chuck, 26" Warrior, 10#'s of wings and Red

And all was good, but the cook was tired...

GL, nice looking cookers!  :D  You have the same colored kettles as I do.  :D Except my red is regular OT, not an SS Performer. I'm gonna smoke another ham on my redhead and the turkey on the brownie, this Saturday.

I have an "H" OT and a pre 79 red head. I have the baby 18" Warrior, found a 22, but the owner will not sell.
Sitting in the dreaded MN winter. I will be hitting them up in spring. Would like the trifecta "Warriors".
Family Pics will have to wait for spring...

Was pretty cold, wasn't it! I swear that wind knocked the temp down to at least 8. I ended up out in front of the garage because of that wind, there the temp was warmer 12  :o

It didn't hit me at first in the pic that your Warrior is actually the 26" "The Chief!"  :D . If you get a hold of your 18 brownie, then you have "The Brave" I'd love a Brave and a Chief to go with my Warrior. But I'd really LOVE an Aristocrat! (26 Red) If I have that, then I'd have the red trifecta.... 18 Easterner, 22 Statesman (my 22 is the 90s 2 tone incarnation, but still..) and the Aristocrat. Holy grails outstanding as of now..... pre 1981 redhead (metal bowl handles) an avocado 22 or an 18, maybe a yellow and the one's mentioned above.
