Title: Scored - I took the plunge on 18 OTG
Post by: LightningBoldtz on August 05, 2014, 05:34:00 PM
We had a discussion here about it http://weberkettleclub.com/forums/weber-kettles-accessories/brand-new-18-otg-opinions-please (http://weberkettleclub.com/forums/weber-kettles-accessories/brand-new-18-otg-opinions-please) yesterday.

Y'All convinced me that I should do it and I did.

It's an AU 2012 model.

And this is where I will lose some friends, I will not be selling my Kamado (Mike Stavlund) I will be selling a kettle to justify with the wife.

That's a beautiful grill! 

...we're going to have to stage an intervention-- your attachment to that kamado is quite alarming.  ;-)

Absolutely beautiful. I use mine every weekend along with my 22". Since I have an OTS. I ordered the ring and ash pan last night.

Most of mine are CL finds, you are right love the feeling of getting NIB once in a while.
