Not sure I like the lid bale...
« on: September 23, 2017, 07:18:59 PM »
New red. First time with a lid bale.
I like the look of those leg sockets!

After a quick clean...

Lid just seem in the way...

Burn off the cooties then some thin chops!
45 bucks well spent[emoji106] !!!

What are your other kettles? If you feel like getting rid of it or trading for one without a lid bale let me know. One way around the lid bale is to put the lid on another kettle close by if you have other 22s not in use.

There's a newer style bale that brings it more out of the way... i may be wrong but i think they are interchangeable

I like the bail on the performer, seems like a natural with the table to one side.  As for a standalone kettle, I'm indifferent to them .  Nothing wrong with the hook and placing it where you like.  Sometimes I use that as a smoke shield!

So I can understand why you may not care for it.  I agree and there's nothing wrong with that.
