Root beer with a twist
This Happy Cooker has something very strange about it .

Not sure if others like this one exist , but I've combed back over all my photos and looked around on the web and found nothing. The other 6 HC 's I have don't have this anomaly.

Can you figure out what that is ? ;)

I only use kettles with lid bales.

Ding!

Also, painted ash catcher?
It's the iconic symbol for the backyard. It's family/friends, food and fun. What more do you need to feel everything [is] going to be all right. As long as we can still have a BBQ in our backyard, the world seems a bit of a better place. At least for that moment. -reillyranch

Very cool - that's in awesome shape too! Those internal ash pans might have well been made out of solid gold. Weber should have stolen the idea from them for sure ;) 8)

It looks like there is an internal wire the lid hangs on - like an internal lid bail....

I've seen right from the start of this that the inside is color porcelain.....is there some other magical feature?

Several models have the internal lid bail, it's a cool innovation .  @ austin87
