Title: Happy Cooker Root Beer
Post by: Idahawk on May 14, 2015, 11:22:30 AM
Root beer with a twist
This Happy Cooker has something very strange about it .

Not sure if others like this one exist , but I've combed back over all my photos and looked around on the web and found nothing. The other 6 HC 's I have don't have this anomaly.

Can you figure out what that is ? ;)

Very cool - that's in awesome shape too! Those internal ash pans might have well been made out of solid gold. Weber should have stolen the idea from them for sure ;) 8)

It looks like there is an internal wire the lid hangs on - like an internal lid bail....

I've seen right from the start of this that the inside is color porcelain.....is there some other magical feature?

Several models have the internal lid bail, it's a cool innovation .  @ austin87
