We have the little Smokey Joe from Weber that we take to all of our disc dog competitions, camping, picnics, etc. But we only had a gas grill at home. It was a gift from my mom and her husband 4 years ago for our housewarming party, since we were having a BBQ - but had no grill my mom pulled through for us. It is a great little grill, but it is on the smaller side and let's face it, to really grill-one needs charcoal. So for our wedding we registered for this bad boy. And my dad bought it for us! (Well, let's face it, it's for Jeff-the grill master.)
I love food grilled with charcoal. I'm so excited to have this new grill finally put together. We kept it in the box all winter long since we didn't have a cover yet and didn't want to expose it to the winter conditions here. Once summer hit-that grill was built! The first item up? Boneless ribs. :)
Please excuse the fact that we are drinking Twisted Tea.... That's not normally our style. ;-)
We will still be keeping our trusty gas grill, for the days that waiting for the charcoal to heat up just isn't an option. IE: Amy is hungry and therefore grumpy....must eat food NOW to make Jeff's life better. But I am so excited to have this new grill. On the menu soon....spare ribs. 3 racks of them. And they will all fit in this grill! Oh this is happening and I can't wait.
