Warming/Grilling/Smoking "Upper Deck" For 22 Inch Kettles
« on: September 26, 2016, 04:54:47 PM »
Hello, Everyone!

My name is Gary and I'm new to this group; I've been a Weber kettle enthusiast since I was a teenager and the thrill of the coals hasn't left me yet at 41.   I've never owned a gas grill (I know there are Weber gas grill guys out there, not knocking ya!) and work with my Performer, One-Touch Gold, 18 inch portable and Smokey Joe for all of my grilling needs...too many according to my wife; I've assured her there is always a need for each.   

This past summer, I had a large gathering at my house and while I was grilling on my Performer, I wished that I had a true upper cooking area where I could grill, warm or  expand my indirect smoking surface...something much more versatile than the Weber 3200 rack that comes with the Master Touch series grills.    I happen to manufacture grill accessories ( as well as other items) for a living and I got to work making a prototype.   After some time, I'm happy to announce to all of you that I'm in full production of what I'm calling the Upper Deck rack; my primary sales platform is Amazon.  After visiting this site, I now realize my product is very similar the the old, 1970's Elevated Half Grill, but it IS  different, and to my knowledge, the EHG is not available on the market any longer. 

I'd like to know if any of you might be interested in getting a Upper Deck at no charge in return for an HONEST review on Amazon.  If you love it as much as I do, great! If you think improvements can be made, let me know; if you hate it, please tell me.   I can only handle 10 giveaways, so I will honor the first 10 folks who reach out to me at the email below. 

Guys, being new to this site and not seeing any posted rules, if I'm out of line with this posting, please accept my apologies in advance. I'm just looking for honest feedback from Weber nuts like me as I try to launch this product that I think we be loved by any 22 inch kettle owner.  If there are any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to me.

Link to my product for your review: https://www.amazon.com/Stainless-Warming-Charcoal-Grilling-Accessory/dp/B01IU7HJNU/ref=sr_1_fkmr2_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1474937486&sr=8-3-fkmr2&keywords=upper+deck+grill+grate

Now go out there and light those coals!

Best,
Gary
