The wife threw me a bone..SJ

[tattooedant]

The wife just got back from a business trip in Italy. I'm always asking her to bring me stuff back from Europe, because they have all the cool colors. This time, when she asked me to take out her passport, I placed a piece of paper that had the addresses of the Weber dealers within 10 miles of her hotel. Well it paid off! She actually put a friggin SJ in her luggage and brought me back a bone one.

They're a little pricey there...95 Euros


She did good. No damage!



Cool charcoal grate.



Comes with an internal ashpan


And a really cool charcoal scoop


Now I have to figure out how to get her to bring back a 57cm Blue Wave OTG...

Way to go Wife! I love the charcoal grate on these. Please explain how the drip pan and scoop work when you get it figured out. I have always wondered.

dude your wife is awesome.

I'm really jealous, kudos to your wife. Make sure you return the favor and give her a bone sometime too.

Wow!  Nice work by the wife and cool looking SJ!  I really like that color - very classy.

That charcoal grate is so much more functional when using lump - the finer pattern means less falling through and less waste.

Congrats!

Amazing wife!!!

And can somebody tell me WHY we can't get that charcoal grate in the US??   

(I'm not even going to 'go there' about why we can't get these neat colors!)   

[mike.stavlund]

That's a bunch of great design improvements, for sure.  And your wife is amazing!

Very cool Tatooedant! 

One thing I do regret is not bringing back any Weber gear from all my business trips to Europe and Africa during the last 3 years.  I made 5 trips to Europe & Africa spanning 8 different countries and I didn't even think to buy any Weber stuff to bring back for my enjoyment. Brought back some very hard to find Nikes and Air Jordan's, but nothing Weber. Kicking myself now after seeing your post.
