Really thinking about getting a new kettle, well, am definitely getting one. I currently use my father's old 22 original (he never used it over the 10 years he had it, so I've had it for the last 5). I like the idea of the 26, however I really like the master touch and all its options (including pizza ovens). What I'm thinking, buy 2, 1 master touch, and one original. Put the master touch legs on my father's old one, replace the grate and give back to him for what little bit he might grille. Use the shorter legs from new original on the master touch, and build a table/platform for both 22s, for simple table design and uniform height. This way I get the cooking surface of a 26 with the 2 22s, but the option to only use one when needed. Also the neverending add-ons for the 22. And another though, for longer smokes, if the coals are losing heat, get the other grill ready, and simply transfer the grate to the other grill. I'm thinking a lowboy type platform on wheels for the deck, and a nice table surface for in the middle, thought?

Maybe I'd be better off buying 2 premiums, the lid holder on the MT may interfere with my center table top design, I can just buy the gourmet bbq grate. Can we get the upper rack that comes with the MT separate anywhere? Or do I buy 2 master touches and turn the lid holders to the opposite sides so as not to interfere with table surface

I’ve got a MT and a 26er. I cook on the MT most of the time and bring out the 26er for large parties or long cooks like a pork butt. For long cooks a snake on the 26er can go 11+ hrs no problem. The 26er was a great purchase!

Thinking like that gets you Weberitis and before you know it your backyard is filled with all the options.

I was driving home one day and tapped the brakes for what I thought was a 22.5 sitting on the curb with a ”free” sign on it. I picked it up and felt that it was much heavier and larger it was than the 22s, it was the 26er that every owner raves about. At that point, I knew I had to own one. My 26er is my go to for all cooks. It doesn’t use any more charcoal than my 22s, that all depends on what you’re cooking and how much.

I noticed Home Depot is still selling the red limited editions, should I get those instead of the premiums, or should I just get like a cop or a green premium, any downfalls to the red finish

Personally I wouldn't give $199 for the red LE. I bought mine for $99 last year. I had porcelain chip off both spots where the handle goes through the lid, Weber sent me a new lid though. I'd spend $50 more and get the new coloured one at least you get the upper deck, GBS and charcoal baskets.

Yeah get one of the new colors. The green ones would be cool

You've got a 22" get a 26" when placed beside a 22" it is breath taking. When I spatchcocked the thanksgiving turkey in the 22" every 30 mins I had to give the turkey a 1/4 turn to keep from burning. It came out good but damn that's too much time and attention needed. A 26" solves that.

I've also got a vertical drum smoker, so smoking or low and slow are not really a concern

If you want to do the double table set up then just get two premiums. This will give you the better ash catcher and thermometer lids that the Master Touch has. It might not have the lid holder, but I am not a huge fan of it anyways. If you think you like the lid holder you can always just cut the table in a way where it will work fine. The leg height doesn't really matter as long as you are affixing the kettle to the actual table. I believe there are two options for the brackets that can be used for attaching the kettle. There was a guy on here that is selling them and I think also Unknown BBQ sells them. Unknown BBQ also sells hinges for the lid if that is your game. The one downside to the double table idea is portability. For instance I have a 22 with a table and a premium 22 and I need to grill at another location. I really wish I just had two regular kettles instead of one with a table for this instance.
If it were me I would just keep an eye out for a used 22 to get by in meantime unless you absolutely love one of the new colors. This fall/winter I would hunt for a couple premiums or better yet a 26 on clearance at the major retailers. I found the local Wal-Mart selling 4 premiums last Feb/March for $40 each. My only regret is that I bought 3 of them and sold 2 of them to family. Should have got that last one just to have a spare even if I just kept it in box. I also found my 22 with a table on clearance. The 26 might be a harder find as a clearance though. Currently, I have only one local hardware store that sells them in store and I have no idea what kind of stock they keep or if they even clearance them. If you are buying something new right now try to keep an eye out for coupons that do not exclude Weber products.
I have two 22's and to be honest I would buy a 26 in a heartbeat if I found one at a good price. Weberitis is a real affliction. God help me if I find a Summit cheap enough. The wife might throw me on the lit grill if that happens.

Okay, so definitely going to get two premiums, Crimson is color of choice. Fathers day is coming up hint hint. Table will be wooden, I thinking painted legs and frame to match house, and a beautifully stained top. Once I start build, I'll just start a build thread and link the two together.
Below is a picture of current setup, nothin special, moved to the front porch just because ash cleanup and removal is easier since I dont currently have a cleaner way of doin it.

That's awesome! And I'm sure it is going to be extra-awesome once you get your setup all complete. Your deck/property look great too.
I have a few comments that you may want to give some serious thoughts to. First... the "two kettle table builds" I've seen end up being fairly large if they're going to have useful table space. (Presumably in the middle.) A mistake I see is that people don't want their table to be huge... then they stick the kettles too close together and end up with inadequate table space. Then... they really just have a huge double kettle stand. They needing a small side table to actually make everything work. If you think of the fact that when you're going to use both kettles... you're going to need adequate space to theoretically do two cooks at the same time. If you're doing veggies on one and meats on the other, you'll be using two trays/pans, etc. Just something to think about as you build.
Second concern: You're going to love your kettle pizza. I've got one, and my family (and my extended family) LOVES it. It is a blast, and the pizzas are great, and it is super fun for family events. However... I'd have slight concern with a table build and a kettle pizza. I'd suggest you use that Kettle pizza a couple of times before you decide on your table build. You are going to get your kettle BLAZING HOT to make that thing work best. Probably as hot as kettles will get. I put two chimneys of fully lit charcoal, several small logs... and try to get that stone 600-700+. I've seen 900 deg readings in the internal with my laser thermometer. It will put out smoke/heat that discolors your kettle a bit every time (it can be cleaned up with fine steel wool). So, you're going to want to consider whether you really want that thing in a 'nice' table for kettle pizza use. If so, you're going to want to ensure you really consider your insulation gap (or whether you want to spring for some of the aftermarket install kits that have a stone ring for install). I'd say you'll get the idea once you fire up that kettle pizza. You might not run it as hot as I try to... but just make sure you try it a few times to get an idea. p.s. Get a HEAVY DUTY STONE if you don't have one... I cracked 2 standard ones the first time we used the kettle pizza. You need a beastly stone.
Speaking as a guy who has had several setups... you might want to consider a really, really nice SINGLE kettle table build... with a large amount of space on your table. Then just set second kettle (on its legs) on the other end of the table. Your workspace will be in between... and as a practical matter, it will cook the same. It isn't a huge drawback to have the 2nd kettle a couple inches lower than your table (and you can extend the legs relatively easily, FYI... or replace with some mastertouch legs). The single table with 2nd freestanding kettle will still be impressive and a great setup... still will look really nice... and will be more versatile with more options should you ever decide to change the deck around. You'll probably find you don't use the double kettle setup all the time. (And you can store the other one in the garage when not in use?)
Just some thoughts. Congrats on your awesome new gear! Now... just get yourself that 26er, and you'll be all set! (It's going to happen eventually anyway... lol...)

I really appreciate your input, as I do have a fairly large deck, I plan on a pretty large table, as I too have noticed most that is see are too small in the center usable space. I have used the kettle pizza twice already, it does get blazing hot, however I have another question for you. I only use 1 full chimney of coal, and 2 small pieces of apple wood (I have apple trees) and have no issue getting the kettle to 650 degrees, and cooks the pizzas in 3-1/2 to 4 minutes. I've also given some thought to those install rings, but cant seem to make a decision. And yes, that thing puts off some heat when using the kettle pizza, and I have given though to the single table build and leaving the other as well. But I keep going back to the double. Do you think any kind of flashing would benefit? Maybe line the inside of the cut out, and inside of the frame supports for each kettle?

This guy had some really good input on the pizza kettle in terms of the heat and doing double carts. If you really want to build carts for everything I would look at doing a double kettle table with the kettles closer together and maybe design some flip up side tables that are like 24 by 24 (or longer). This would allow you to tuck it away the side tables when not in use. Also make sure you get some beefy casters so it isn't a bear to move. You won't want it too close to the house or deck rails when in use either.
For the Kettle pizza it might be wise to make a set up where the kettle sits on top of a riser or low countertop. Don't use your pretty Crimson kettles for this. A saw you still have your black kettle. Keep that one for the kettle pizza and anything else that might be rough on a kettle with high temps and etc. The reason I think the riser or low counter top is a good idea is that it brings the opening of the kettle more high belly or low chest. When you are cooking it is easier to see the pizza and maneuver it around. You wouldn't need to make a table around it so no worry about the heat coming off of it. Just make a set up that will allow you to hook the wheels/bottom tray or shortened legs to the riser/countertop. Then if you tear the heck out of the kettle with the heat and chipping the surface when moving things on and off the kettle you can just find another discount or used kettle to replace it with.

Unfortunately I've already given that black kettle back to my father, it was his, he just never used it, probably still wont. I'll keep my eyes out for a cheap used kettle, or a clearance one in the fall. Do yall really think it will ruin the finish, at least between now and fall?

I think it will be alright with light usage, but I can't say that from experience. Maybe start a thread over in the Pizza section to see if anyone has had issues or get an idea of how it wears on the kettles? I think the largest risk is taking things on and off the rim finish and setting the lid down here or there. It just makes it easier to drop or scrap the finish. The heat would probably take a lot of time before it made any real damage. I still think the riser is a better idea for the pizza kettle though. You will appreciate it if you cook all the time with it.
I also plan on getting a pizza kettle and 22's are easy to find. I figured if I was going to abuse one, it might as well be a cheapo that I can part out after I cooked the heck out of it. You can find them on facebook and craigslist all the time for $20 to $50 bucks. You might get lucky and find a premium or master touch in that range if you are patient.

Well, in a conundrum then. I already plan to move my drum smoker up on the porch as well, and If i get a dedicated kettle for pizzas, now I'm looking at 4 cookers, not sure wife will go for another kettle, she already thinks I'm nuts. I like the idea of a dedicated pizza, and it I know she wont. I guess if worse comes to worse, it ruins the finish. Question though, do yall think those stone rings would help as for protection of table, do you think the heat from doing pizzas would warp the table top in any way? I did post in the pizza forum about the finish, but now I'm starting to think about the table around it even more, it should be able to put up with the heat, right?

Put the tables on casters and add some wire trays or drawers that could slid out. An alternative to drawers could be a paper towel holder, tool hooks, bottle opener, and etc. I would try to keep the budget down on a build like that.
Maybe make one table first and see how much you like it? Or Make it one larger table and be mindful of your lengths to get the most out of your lumber. For example, try to make one table 4 feet wide so you know you can get the table top done with 4 1x6 boards.
I wouldn't go too crazy with it because with time you might find that your needs will change. At first you really liked the idea of essentially making a Performer cart for 2 kettles. There might come a time when you find a Performer or they come out with a new one that you love and you will have to rethink your arrangement. After cooking and using your equipment a while you might decide to make a whole dedicated cooking area away from your deck and start all over. No sense putting too much money and effort into until you really really know what you want.
For example, I was thinking just like you not that long ago running two kettles. I had a Performer with the cart and a Premium. I was thinking about how I could make this set up work better and be easy to roll out for large family or friend cooks. Then a curve ball came when I found a Ranch. Now the Performer is the small group/dinner workhorse, the Premium will eventually become the pizza kettle, and now the Ranch will be the party grill I use at home or take to events. After the Ranch is looking great the next focus will be some fold out tables to go on one or either side of it.

It sounds like you already have a feel for the kettle pizza... and you're happy running yours not quite as hot as I do. (Perhaps I overdo it.)
I think you'll likely be fine if you are mindful of the problem, and when you build whatever you decide on... you simply make sure you are building it in some way where you are providing a proper gap of spacing from the tabletop. (Not sure whether stone rings are better than proper spacing... perhaps that's something to research.)
At the end of the day, this is supposed to be fun! If you're driving yourself nuts, go with your first idea (or the one you like best)... ensuring you do your best to guard against a heat issue. And if it ends up still being an issue... you'll find another kettle to use for your kettle pizza.

Lol, not yet... I've got next week off, and plan to have a buddy come over and build and drink with me.

You sure do work fast. Just in time for 4th of July. I guess you folks didn't down too many bottles while putting it together[emoji3].
Looks fabulous. It even matches the building architecture.

Thanks for the comments, we downed a few, but we really like the IPAs we try not to go too hard when it's this hot. We did do some cooking while working too. The ribs look like coal, but they were amazing, but they were done on the drum

I like how this evolved. This is much better than built ins imo. So much more versatile.

Really like that table.
Now rethinking the frill table I was planning.
Your setup makes much more sense.
Good looking station you got going.

Looks good man. I think that will serve you really well and is adaptable to different cooks and spaces. I will be interested if you make some pizza table modifications to one. I am getting stuff for a pizza kettle and I really want to make some kind of frame or cart for it someday.

Are you going to poly or paint the tops? Just curious. I know I can’t keep from covering every surface near my grills with grease stains.

Yup, gonna stain the tops and shelves to match deck boards, and paint frame and legs white to match house

Nicely done! Bonus points for painting and staining to match the house and using your new Crimson as a pizza oven.
-
That looks great! I'm thinking about the same thing but with an old Genesis in the middle and the wood to match the wood of the genesis. I have a performer and would y the propane line off one tank.

Very nice! I'm thinking about making one. How many beers did each table take?

Not too many, the more we put down the slower projects seem to go [emoji16]

I realize this is an old thread, but a suggestion is since you father grills very little, if at all, perhaps finding an 18" grill in really good shape on FB marketplace or CL might work. If needed you could take a little time to clean up. If these ideas appeal to you would still have 2x22 inch grills and you dad would have a grill that is perhaps more appropriate to his grilling needs. Since the last post I saw was dated in June this may be far to late an idea.
-
This idea plus I've read several posts that suggest only using a black grill for pizza as some grills have popped the porcelain on the colored grills. This makes since as the porcelain can pop with extreme heat. Just my 2 cents worth. Of course this idea would mean the lack of matching grills. After reading all the way through I see your project is completed and my ideas are no longer relevant.

Man, what a ride... That looks like a really cool set up. Just curious, do you end up with a lot of smoke in the house when you fire up the chimneys, or do you get your coals started away from the porch/deck area?
-
I say if you want to keep that beautiful porch decking, your next purchase should be a grill mat for under the kettle. Sparks and ashes dropped on that beautiful wood finish would definitely ruin your day.
