New Copper Kettle time!

[David Parrish]

Just added a new grill to the arsenal. I'm firing her up right now!

[David Parrish]

OK, in my excitement I didn't post enough pics.

[Jon Solberg]

OH YEAH!

[Jon Solberg]

I just traveled threw a vortex of redirect! It was radical!

AWESOME SCORE PB

[David Parrish]

Thank you Sir. I LOVE the color!

I've got a fever. . . . and the only prescription is more cowbell!

I dont recall that metal piece under the top handle on mine. What is it?

[_Keith]

Heat shield, from the look of it.

[W.A.]

Why does it only say 22" and not 22.5"? Did weber change the design?

[David Parrish]

It's a heat deflector. This is a new for 2015 model and has a few enhancements.

1) Handle with shield.
2) Legs attach with a spring loaded "push pin".
3) The thermometer and top vent are now on opposite sides of the handle.
4) The stamped cutouts on the ash catcher are improved. Before, you knew which way you had to turn it to open or close the vents, but what you realized was that 'open' and 'closed' really were closer together than you would have thought. This is more accurately portrayed. The markings are closer together with a "trash" cutout on the far side to show that moving it that far is only necessary to help clean the grill.

I pulled the above info from a review on Amazon.

[W.A.]

Thanks. Yeah, I marked mine for closed, half, quarter open, etc. its not linear.

Wish I got a copper one, but mine was on clearance for $99.

[David Parrish]

Can't beat that price. That's a SCORE.

[David Parrish]

Mav 732 was reading 478 when I took the pic of the dome thermometer.

[_John_]

Looks good, I think I just saw one somewhere...

[David Parrish]

Chicken is on. Man it's cold. Weatherman says 40 but with the wind it feels much colder.

[Jerod Broussard]

Neato. I see Southern Flavor. I'm about to attack some pizza with mine.

[David Parrish]

You are correct Sir. Southern Flavor and chicken make a GREAT combination.

Did you and JB also call each other to discuss the outfits you were going to wear? Both with new copper kettles on the same day. Huskee, where's yours?

I removed the thermometer on my Performer and use that hole to drop my probes through.

[Deuce]

Nice score, love my copper kettle. That vortex will really work it's magic now

It's a mystery wrapped in an enigma.

Nice - never have seen the copper kettle!
