Getting My Sons' Christmas Gifts Ready

[bamakettles]

Oldest son already has a 22” kettle with SNS, griddle, thermometer and more, youngest moves across the country most every year advancing his dolphin training skills and the middle son has an 18” kettle we bought at the beach one year and frequently burns things he’s trying to cook.  So, this year the youngest and oldest each get a Q1200 with carry pack, cookbooks and rubs.  Middle son gets my ‘84 brownie 22” with new grates, slow n sear, rubs and cookbooks since he’s told me he wants to up his low n slow game.  Not going to be wrapping these!  And lastly an obligatory picture peeking into the Weber room.

Well thought out nice gifts !! do you need an honorary son ?

Those are awesome gifts - lucky kids!

So middle son is your favorite, huh?
Just Kidding!  IMO that brownie is the best gift, tho.

He'll be a master at low n slow in no time, with that beauty.

Thanks!  If you were my son you'd have at least one, but I hear you're covered lol.  My daughter and son in law have an 18" we gave them - not sure they use it much, I gave my in-laws a 22" and a distant relative an 18" this year so she can cook steaks.  I wanted to give my brother a kettle, but he lives in an upscale community where only stainless steel gassers and kamados live and are accepted.  May sneak one up there this spring.  Gotta spread the Weber love!

Well, he's the only one so far that shows much interest in it but I'm trying with the others.  His last cook was a chicken halved and he cooked it over blazing hot lump.  Needless to say it was black on the outside and raw on the inside.  We're going to fix that.  He sent me pictures asking if there was any way to salvage.  He put it in the oven tented and finished it off.  He said it was good and the next day we discussed methods.  I'm glad he's interested!

Yes, they're custom inserts a fellow member made with a 3D printer.  He did a couple of sets for me a couple years back.  Don't think he makes them anymore, but there are some on FB that still do.  Here's my '87 redhead that has them.

I've seen those before, they're sharp!
Since I couldn't read it, I wondered if you had personalized it for him.

If he has interest, you'll get him trained.
And surely that Brownie carries with it a little bit of your mojo - that can't hurt! LOL
