Which cooker is your first string player.

[Craig]

With all of our collections, multiple kettles etc, whats the kettle you use the more often than not? Have you retired or semi retired a kettle for a different one, do you rotate regularly? Or do you cook on whatever kettle/color mood your in?    I try to rotate, but more often than not, the red '95 gets the most cooks, mainly because of the gold ash can, especially on weeknights.

Mostly i fire up my WGA. Then the OTP 22.5

It depends, which ever one calls the loudest gets the nod

I have two mid seventies vintage kettles. One is set up for direct, the other for indirect. How and what i am cooking determines which grill. My OTG just sits, abandoned.

If I'm smoking, the competition WSM that is on the floor gets used.

If it's just a small meal for me and the SoDT I break out a WGA.

The 2003 black SS Performer is in pole position.  It is easy to light, and my charcoal is stored in it, and most of the tools are in it too.  I have a warranty-upgraded 2012 lid on it, with the lid thermo, so I don't even need to pull out the Maverick for most cooks. 

I pull the cover off the red K if I need some more grill space.

Blue Performer is my absolute #1, Mesa Azul is #2 & #3, 1985 26er is #4.  Everything else if for fun when I feel like doing something different....Grandpa, the redheads, the Brownie....the Yellow, the Seville...etc...

Definitely my SS performer, but WSM in a close second.

[Hogsy]

Performer for grilling and roasting, WSM for low and slow

Well since I only own one... It's the 22.5 OTG
I keep lookin around here for some used ones but they are few and far between

I do have other smokers. Just use the Kettle more than anything else

For me it's my red SS. But I have a feeling that my 26'er is going to be seeing a lot more action.

I wish I could say, but my collection changes like raiders quarterbacks. On top today  out the door tomorrow.   All I can say is I will always want a 26'r, a 22 an 18 and a few smokey joes.

The black SS performer was #1 until the burgundy SS performer arrived and got moved under the covered patio.  They both have gas assist.  I just filled the tank on the burgundy SS performer.  So it is seeing the most action.  However, I just installed the spot lights on the Black SS performer so it may see more action.  It is possible both Performers get sold to friends.  I just missed out on a green SS Performer with gas ($50.00).  That would have replaced one of the other first string players.

Just returned from a week in Phoenix.  The Smokey Joe Platinum was the designated hitter during this trip.
