Hmmmm, very nice! Might be about time for another trip to Menards!!! 😃
I finally bought a set of these tonight. They'd been on sale around here, but not the 6.99 price until tonight. How have they held up
@LightningBoldtz ?
I actually never bought them because I have a few of the Webber ones. You'll have to tell me. :)
Haha! Okay, I'll let you know!

No worries, I think my phone learned "Weber" "grate" "OTG" "OTS" "MT" "OTP" "WKC" etc since I type them so much.
My phone knows "HD" and "CL" too.
On the one hand I don't own the Weber version of these so I can't make a comparison. However, I used one tonight for indirect cooking and it was great. I especially appreciated how well it contained the lump charcoal. That, frankly is my only beef with lump- it ends up everywhere. I might use these for every cook! How did I ever live without them? Any reason the Weber's would be better?

Found the link for these, from the description it says galvanized steel, good. http://www.menards.com/main/outdoors/grills-outdoor-cooking/grills-smokers/charcoal-wood-chip-tray/p-2242166.htm
WAIT, galvanized steel? Is that healthy to heat up?

Uhhhhhhh . . . http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_fume_fever :-\
The Weber ones are made from aluminized steel, for what it's worth.
The ones that I saw did not look galvanized.
You can usually tell.....it has that mottled look to it & kind of a different sheen viewed from different angles....
Surest way is if someone has these & lights charcoal, it will turn a gold-ish color under heat & maybe even flake off some on he surface.....if so, these people need to know what they are selling !!!!!
No it's just shiny/polised. Probably not galvanized then, right?
My weber ones have totally disintegrated, maybe I need a set of these.....
I'll be sure to update when I have a better feel for how they're holding up. I will say that they're welded corners. I know that the Weber ones have little flaps, correct?
