Just picked up light eggshell blue Smokey Joe Gold (The Outrider) AU 2012
« on: October 09, 2017, 03:22:42 PM »
After seeing Harris92's SWEET 1960 Imperial Glen Blue, I really liked it.  I know it's unlikely I'll stumble across one, so I jumped on this 2012 AU Smokey Joe Gold (The Outrider) because it had a similar blue color.  It's missing the lower grate for the charcoals and has one or two chips. 

Came with the partial bag of charcoal and some lighter fluid (I'll keep it in case I wind up using a fire pit at some point). 

I've on the lookout for some larger ones too, but couldn't resist this light blue color.

Nice! The color of that one is "Blue Wave"..... or possibly "Wedgewood Blue".

I got the term "The Outrider" from the WKC writeup on the history of the Smokey Joe.  http://weberkettleclub.com/grills/weber-smokey-joe-history/

According to the writeup, the 14.5 inch SJ Gold and the 18.5 inch SJ Platinum were BOTH aka as "The Outrider".  The SJ Platinum is allegedly also known as the Jumbo Joe, even though it was actually replaced by the Jumbo Joe.  For what it is worth, the article does not mention whether, or not, the replacement "official" Jumbo Joe is also known as "The Outrider".  That being said, it is possible that the writeup is not 100% correct.

Is that possibly a Euro?  I didn't think that colour  was available in North America.
