I hope raising this thread for the dead isn't looked down upon.....
Do these conversion kits still exist? I ordered a 22.5 OTG two years ago and it arrived with some slight cosmetic damage to the bowl and lid. I contacted Weber about it and they sent me a new bowl and lid. Amazing customer service!
The damaged bowl and lid was given to my Dad as he was going to build a cart for it and use it as a second grill for their lake house. Unfortunately shortly after I gave him the grill he was diagnosed with cancer and after giving that damn disease a hell of a fight he died last June. Screw cancer! A couple of weeks ago I was over at my Mom's house doing some cleanup in the workshop when I found the grill still sitting on a shelf. I've been thinking of a way to make some use of it and had considered turning it into a dedicated smoker, but I already have a WSM that I use for that. After more thought I decided that converting it to gas would be ideal for those times I just need a quick grill or for when my wife wants to grill something while I am out of town for work. She doesn't like "messing with charcoal" so this really would be an ideal solution for that if I could find the kit, or some other way, to do the conversion on the kettle.
Again, I hope that necroing this thread is ok.
Thank you.
