George's Birthday Bash 2017



On February 26,1921 George A.Stephen  was born and just a few decades later he created the iconic Weber Kettle and the rest as they say is history.

We here at the Weber Kettle Club are all about history and even more so we love a good cook out on our Weber Grills . That's why we have decided to pay homage to the man that started it all with a weekend long Birthday celebration.

The event will run the weekend of February 24-26, 2017 and will feature an e-cook and also for those interested a very special photo contest.

E-Cook And Photo Contest Information

Locate the George's Birthday Bash thread in the events section and post your pictures of the birthday dinner you created for George on your Weber Grill. Make sure you make him a plate and that you share the details . There will be bonus points if you a re-create a meal featured in any Weber publication so be sure to post the photo you used.
All entries will be entered into a prize drawing and a people's choice award  will also be selected .

George's Photo Contest

This one gets a little more detailed but should be a great time and a lot of fun .


Entries are asked to recreate a scene from any known Weber Publication featuring George . A special photo gallery has been created on the main page for ideas .It can be as elaborate as a 1960s catalog cover or as easy as George leaning on a red kettle but it must feature George and a Weber and it must be live not photoshopped. All entries will be entered into a random prize drawing and a people's choice award presented for best overall re-creation.  Locate the George's Birthday Bash Photo Contest thread in the events section and post entries there.

   Prizes include
WKC T-Shirts-stickers - NIB wok and more

I will create a discussion thread for questions and for comments during the event so we don't clog the event threads with chatter .

Good Luck and Have fun

WKC Staff

I think I'm confused on the photo contest.

Live, with George?
Dude, relax your chicken.

I've gotta get me a pair of George's white shoes and a sweet bowling shirt with sailboats on it.

Re-create a photo using someone alive as a stand in for George , hiring actors is allowed ... I'm using Danny DeVito

I have that gasser, but the one at the back of the table is interesting.
