Picked up my first Weber Kettle yesterday afternoon, a Performer Deluxe, and fired up a prime Costco NY Strip for dinner as a test run. (Sorry, no pics as I'm in my sixties and don't have that techno-gene to post stuff, yet). Loaded both fuel baskets with KBB and let it ash-over for about 30 minutes before closing the lid and preheating. Seared a couple of slices of Vidalia onions and the steak before moving to indirect until IT was 130. Let it sit with a couple of slabs of butter on it before slicing,,,, awesome MR deep pink throughout and a great char outside.
It's been decades since I grilled on charcoal and I can tell you that my dinner was awesome. I'd forgotten how good a charcoal char on a steak tasted.
No, I won't be getting rid of my Weber Summit 470 gasser or my WSM 18", but will spend a lot of time deciding which of these great products to use for each cook.
Great site here with a ton of great information, thanks and keep it up guys and girls!

Once you go charcoal it is very tough going back to a gasser.

Just saying

Welcome to the cub  and yes... Beef...  It was for dinner....
Lets just say I have acquired a few Kettles.  Big and small.   Vintage and New...  Some say I have a problem.  I find the Kettle, buy the Kettle, USE the Kettle...No problem...
