My Wife Found me a Green OTG for $20

[tb80]

My wife doesn't really understand my grilling obsession and/or why I want so many grills. She actually gives me a hard time about it on a semi-regular basis. You can imagine my shock when she texted me a picture of a green Weber OTG that was for sale for $20 on our neighborhood trading website. I thought it was a joke at first, but she was serious.

Needless to say, I picked it up ASAP. Surprisingly enough, the seller was only three houses down from us. The wife said she was selling it because her husband never used it. The husband did not appear happy with his wife. I told him to come on down the street if he ever smelled me grilling.

Pics are attached. It is a one touch gold from 2003. It is in great condition. There are a few scuffs, and the grates are a little rusty, but nothing that can't be cleaned up. I love the green color too.   I have to give credit to my wife...she did a great job.  She is an amazing woman. 

I have been keeping an eye out for a OTG for a couple years on CL. I never would have guess my wife would find the best deal. She did ask that I get rid of the black one, which I agreed to do. But I will just take it out to the deer lease to use out there.

Great Score....The green ones look awesome. Now add some wood handles and you will really be pimpin' ;-)

Sweet.  Your wife rocks!  Very important question...Does your wife have a single twin sister?

Great looking green, great move by your wife but...............

The wife said she was selling it because her husband never used it. The husband did not appear happy with his wife. I told him to come on down the street if he ever smelled me grilling.

Ah man.  That was f***in' cruel. I could not have said that with a straight face. It must have been all shriveled up when you left him with his SWMBO and NO kettle.  That will never be me.  Got a couple/three non-Weber cookers that have not used in some time but I would never abide that.  Old Hoss abides plenty but never something akin to that nonsense.

I was actually being serious.  Seemed like a decent guy.

I've taken finished BBQ back to people that either gave me a good deal, took the time to talk shop, or seemed like they were maybe sort of in the situation described above......


Oh, and PS:  The last one the wife scooped up went like this.......OTS, Black, almost new, yard sale, sees it up ahead, yanks the car over, flies out the door leaving it open & beats TWO other BIG guys to the score......$10, with complete set of stainless grilling tools.............the truth is out there.....even for significant others.......

Cool.  And I am sure you are a decent fella as well.  All the same that would never be me.  It would hurt too much.

Use that cooker good cause it sounds like it needs it.

That's a killer score! I love the green kettles. Looks like it's in great shape too. Congrats!


Tell me boy, what is the riddle of steel?
