Congratulations to Dazzo for being WKC featured member #3! Dazzo has quite a story to tell with a little bit of clowning around. You deserve it, buddy! Dazzo’s famous green MBH Some Grillfella’s got together all across the country. The Norcal folks had their first annual (or when they feel like it) WKC meet and…
I am pleased to introduce our next featured member and he goes by the handle dazzo around these parts. That’s his clown name (no joke!) and though he claims to clown around no longer, it must be an important part of his life. Without further ado, here is how he describes himself: My name is…
This Saturday WKC Team Cali had a Norcal meet. It was an epic event with 8 members and a few dozen kettles of every vintage and color. Keep an eye out for a full writeup on the west coast meet master thread but for now here is a sneak peek! If you are looking for…

It must be getting warm since the WKC has been blowing up with activity over the past three weeks. Grillfellas have had the chance to kick off the season with great cooks and spring cleaning has led to some good scores. Sorry that Gummi hasn’t been updating the potw! I hope this one gets you…
Grill – 1975 Copper Mist 22.5 “The Warrior” Owner: Gunner Story: Not a real good story unfortunately (so says Tom, the owner). But is there such a thing as a bad story when grabbing a kettle?
