    Weber Mastertouch 26" kettle

    Right when I believe I'm all set for smoking anything I want, Home Depot goes and marks down this 26" Mastertouch Kettle on clearance for $275. MCS is going to kill me. Gotta stay strong and not purchase this. Haha!

      Grab it, you will NOT be disappointed. I use mine all the time.

        Yeah, we'll need pictures once you get it home and set up.

          My son has a 26” and the legs are a weak spot. I wound up building him, a table to house it when the legs gave away.

            LegoMySearwood The problem on the 26” isn’t with the legs themselves, but rather the welds on the kettle that hold the legs.

            I had a local fabricator build a cart with a side table for mine. Works great! I was originally thinking about the legs made by Spider Grills, but thought it would be too low to the ground based on the pictures.

          So what are you cooking on it this weekend?

          You will never regret owning a 26. You may regret not owning 2 of them though, at that price buy 2, sell one mid summer new in box for 400, then buy some meat with the profit. lol

          truly used ones sell for more, if wanting one you’d be a fool not to take one home.

            Snag it, great deal on a GREAT kettle. The real estate in the 26" is surprisingly bigger than the 22", more than you'd think.

              Yeah night and day differences in size and how they operate, 26 is just a big beautiful boat that cruises a long,

              The eye test explains the math. The area of the 26" is 40% bigger than the 22". A packer brisket fits with ease and room to spare.

            And if you're a Veteran you can get another 10% off that price.

              Must be a local deal...HD website has them for $529.00. I'd get it for the price you're seeing it.

                Home Depot must be clearing out inventory. I saw a fella on Reddit who found a Masterbuilt 800 gravity feed for $270 . I think that's $800 msrp .

                  Huskee Its not found on-line, evidently, it can be found in-store only. I thought it was a great deal also.

                  Before I paid way too much for my Assassin GF, I looked and looked for this kind of winter deal on a MB1050 or even the 800. My only consolation is the Assassin will last the rest of my lifetime and who'ever's lifetime I leave it to.

                    How do you all find these crazy HD discounts? There is never anything like that at my local stores.

                      And looking again at the Reddit Masterbuilt thread, someone posted 12 hours ago that they found one $225. I wish there was some way to know their location.
