My First 26.75"
« on: April 20, 2015, 07:53:47 AM »
Been eyeballing these for a long time. But they dont come up on CL as often as the 22's.

Luckily a forum member sent me a message last week and had remembered I was in the market.







It is in EXCELLENT shape, but I expected as much from a WKC member. Thanks @G$

Thanks again. Did about 8 lbs of wings on Saturday and they turned out great

Awesome score! What's even cooler is that it's a pre "taco" lid handle.

It was hard letting it go, but in the end will be worth it!  Enjoy it @THUNDERDOME !



...and get those crappy bamboo handles replaced!

The 26 is the best all around general purpose grill Weber makes. (IMO) The 22 is too small many times, the RK is too big many times. The 26 is just right most times.
This is the original Weber kettle. The most powerful bbq grill in the world and can blow your taste-buds clean off! So, you have to ask yourself one question: "Do you feel hungry? Well, do you punk?"
