A limey has been on my grail list for quite some time.  At the beginning of October, I got a message from @Red Kettle Rich , with a link to a CL ad, offering a combo deal... a lime 18 and a yellow 22. Since it was 3 hours one way, I let it go.

A couple of days later, I got pm from @Travis that stated "Hey Bob, I think I have an 18" lime in the works along with a 22" yellow. I didn't want the lime but knew you were looking for one. If I can get it, do you want it?".  I replied immediately...

From my understanding, @MadMax had gotten ahold of Travis, and offered to agent. So now, a little over a month later, one of my grails is off the list. It has some beauty scars, and a definite grate strap issue (it's completely popped off!) that should be able to be fixed. Looking forward to cooking on her!

Huge thanks to MadMax and Travis!



What a grate weekend! First the delivery of the handle, then the delivery of my lime grail... once again, the grillfella's of the WKC show what an awesome group they are!

Congrats!  That is beautiful!  Can't wait to see it fixed up and in action.  Looks like the cado is coming along as well!

Nice limey ya got there @bob bq!!!
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...

Nice lime there @Bob BQ. The handles looks to be in nice shape too and should come back to life with minimal work. Congrats on the grail!!

Love these stories of WKC teamwork.  Lime looks great. Keep us updated on how you fix that grate strap.

Congrats! I love lime in general, but this lighter lime on 18" is my favorite.
