Title: For the GA Enthusiasts
Post by: glrasmussen on March 29, 2015, 07:18:24 AM
Had a GA a while back, but traded it off. The stable is pretty much full capacity. But this will not take up much space. Plus I just purchased some Weber skewers on close out. This grill will fit the bill. I watched the ad a few days and just had to pull the trigger, RRR.

Ad Pic, what do you see different?

A little clean up and this is what we have. First @MartyG favorite color. Other interesting thing is this so so speckled white. Can't say I have ever had a black this speckled...

Man, I like that!  Double rivet handles, too.  Nice score, and great clean-up.

I had a black Performer with a similar speckled finish - almost looked like metal flake. Not sure if it is caused by a variation in the temps they use to bake on the porcelain, but it's very cool.

@glrasmussen

That looks awesome and cleaned up nicely! Congrats on the score! I love the double rivet GA's. I hope to find one down the line.

Thanks all! It is pretty special. Pics don't do it it justice. Even though my collection goes MBH 22's, this is wright up there.
This little guy can cook 4 bone on chops, but I actually look forward to Kabab cooks.

great pics. love the speckling. As a charcoal GA owner, I agree that these "little" grills can cook. IMHO, a GA can do everything a SJ can do. and depending on how much you're cooking, and cook method of choice, they can do somethings a SJ can't. ie-due to shape, can have a true dual zone cook in a portable for things like steaks and pork chops.
