Lime green SJ

[Lightning]

Thanks to @MacEggs for the heads up on this line green Smokey Joe!  It was located about three quarters of the way between home and my parents place, so I was able to pick it up last weekend on my way to dinner!  Now for the debate about whether to leave it in its box or not...

Use it! They are fairly common.

I would take it out and display it. I’ve never seen one in person.

Kinda hard to cook on it still in the box...

If it's unopened NIB, you might want to open it up to inspect it, just to make sure there's no issues such as missing porcelain(chips) on the lid and bowl, legs and hardware are all included, etc., register the grill with Weber then

fire it up for its inaugural cook. If it's a used open box, you still might want to make sure everything is there if you ever decide to sell it. If you want to leave it in the box? It's totally up to you, it's your grill, you paid for it.

This. I got one NIB and there was a chip on the lid rim. I never considered registering it but now I will!

I think I have one of those buried in the Weber room!

You're kidding, right ?!?!!??  Put it together and look at it.
I see a few others who keep stuff in boxes …. @Lemons comes to mind.

No need to cook on it, as cooking on an SJ sucks, unless you go camping or to the beach alot.
Get yourself an 18" kettle for small cooks at home.

I agree about assembly to see it but cooking on an SJ Gold doesnt suck. Great little steak cookers and small batch cookers.

And yes, everyone should own at least one 18” Kettle. Mine are all gone except my Outrider.

I'll probably set it up as a display piece on my next days off...if I get to have days off...work has been insane lately...

I agree, I use mine frequently down the dock when just cooking a steak for myself and a couple of ABTs.  Cheap on fuel and gets a nice sear.  I like the ones with the vents on the bottom more than the side.  I seem to be able to get hotter temps (maybe I'm imagining things)


In any case I really like mine.   Two Limes, One Blue Bud Light, One Grey, One Black Logo, One Black Modded With Vent Knobs and A Couple More Black Ones I Plan To Mod Out For Friends.
