Table for Smokey Joe- Weber, aftermarket, or DIY?
« on: April 19, 2016, 06:49:45 AM »
This is the second one I have seen on CL in the last year. I am not really interested in it but curious as to who made it.

@stubblebum -  The pics you posted are cool, but it seems like a lot of bulk for a little portable grill.  I usually just put my SJ on my performer table or on the grate of my 26er assuming they aren't in use.  Otherwise it just goes on my concrete patio.  I don't have any more room for a table option for mine, so I can't really speak about aftermarket or DIY ideas, but there is a good review of the weber table here if you have not seen it yet.   I think its cool that the grill actually locks into place.

It looks similar, but not exactly, like the ones that these folks make:http://www.ardentgoods.com/

It does look like alot of bulk for a portable grill. I also use my SS performer table as a place for a Smokey Joe or mini-WSM.  It does look like it might fold up and make it easier to store.

I found previous threads that had mentioned the ardentgoods table when I used sites search function for Table Smokey Joe. I was just wondering if anyone knew who made this particular table. It appears well made to me, especially the built in metal ring for a heat shield.

I will say it's a cool table and looks well made, but a  $199 table to hold my $30 grill?

I had the same reaction to that price as you. FYI - Asking price on the one pictured was $75 and I assume that included table, grill, and tools pictured.

Ad is still listed as of now. Looking at the pictures I wonder what holds the grill in the hovering position above the heat shield. You can see the grills legs and ash pan sticking out below the table but can't see where anything attaches.
