Got a sneak peek at Weber 2013.

Jumbo Joe is coming back.

The current Platinum is gone.

3 Performer's now.  Newest look more like a mini performer with a small side shelf on one side. 

All Spirits will have knobs in front now and some, folding side shelves.

Probably more but just a quick peek is all I got..........

Where did you see this? 

Any new colors?

I did a search on the Lowes site for Wber and around page five or six of the results you start getting items that haven't been reviewed yet like the Jumbo Joe. They also have black and green 22.5 Performers, didn't look that different except for a LCD timer where the gas assist controls would be. There's also a pizza stone insert for the gourmet grill set up.

This may be the new jumbo joe....19.75 inches.

I'm not really sure what to make of this thing? :-\

It looks like it's still Webers bastard child though. The SJP has always been the ugly brother hasn't it?  ::) I hope they at least did away with the old SJP grate and will offer it in a couple different colors. :-[

Could it be possible that Weber made it even worse by making it a 19.75? I am actually laughing out loud! ;D

I am having difficulty looking at it any longer!  :o

I think most people here are into the old school stuff. They don't buy at the hardware store or order grills on line. Some score a NIB but you can bet its not a 2013 model.  8)
Some kettles, couple smokey joes, a preformer, 18" WSM and the wifes Q300.

It looks like a beefed up Smokey Joe Silver that has been flattened.  Not a fan at first glance.

Sure looks to me like a European compact kettle, with different legs, ash catcher and front pull handle removed. At first glance I'm not a fan either, but I need to see one in person.

Is there a tamale pot big enough to mod it into a jumbo mini wsm?   8)

The lid looks to big for the bowl
