WKC Chicago meet master thread

[Golly]

i see the dress code was cargo pants 

was this to be period correct for the age of the kettle you bought to the meetup

Jeff isn't amused that Brian hasn't cleaned any of his grills and will photobomb his pristine grill pics. Brian asked G for help, and G gives this look like "Are you kiddin' me man? I got my own kettles to unload, and unlike yours they won't get me dirty!"

The quote and look on their faces is priceless. Great pictures Gum!

Are these guys brothers? 

Maybe grill BROTHA'S!

[Jeff]

ok AJ....leave that photo lie in the archives!  Maybe someone photo shopped the lighter fluid in!

[G]

funny...someone's wife asked the same question at the meet-up.

pbe-I think you hit our thoughts exactly.  Brian did bring a special pair of grill handling gloves so the grease from the previous nights cook didnt stain his cargo shorts.

Jeff, do you own a chimney? I don't recall seeing one at your house but I saw every other accessory. Serious question!

[Ken Mc]

simply AMAZING !!!!!   That's all I got......

Hey, weren't we supposed to see the Fireplace Kettle at the meetup? (He says, wondering why the thought is only now nearing the front of his conscious mind.)

What happened?

Didn't Ed pick that up? If so he didn't make it. Forgot about that, I would have told him to bring it to my place yesterday.

I do...but my neighbor borrowed it and I didn't get it back yet.  I usually cook on the Performer...so I rarely need lighter fluid.

I must say to everyone... nice collection of grills in those photos.

[landgraftj]

Nice avatar pic goomba!

[MartyG]

Just posted our "family" photo from the meetup to Weber's FB page. Let's see if anyone "likes" it!

[HankB]

Jeff's house is like Weber Mecca. Don't look at his grills for too long though, or he will give you the evil eye.

Did you see his Doberman? Just a pup and pretty friendly, but when Brian was rolling a kettle across the back yard while packing up, the dog looked at him and I heard a low growl. I'd say he's being well trained to protect the collection!

[Jeff]

to follow up...someone left a pair of tongs by me that are unclaimed....anyone?

That was me!!  I got it with another pair for $5. Figured its not worth shipping messing with etc. consider it a thank you gift for hosting. .
