    Longtime Lurker - Now I'm Officially a Member :)

    Hello from Austin, Texas!

    I joined on a free trial initially when I received the Meathead book for my birthday and then just drooled in the background at everyone's recipes for a long time after. But now, I'm moving from an apartment to a house and looking forward to shopping for and firing up a grill again soon!

    Can't wait to hear more on everyone's tips and insights!

                    Hi Panhead John! I've been doing a lot of research lately on kamado-type grills. I haven't quite landed on a specific one yet, and I wasn't sure if this wouldn't be as good for a beginner. I have primarily worked with simple propane grills but not charcoal grills. I have worked with a wood smoker before so I have the patience and know to be sure to get a good thermometer.

                    Hi Cecile A kamado type grill is a good choice, lots of people here have one. If you’re gonna have only one charcoal grill, another excellent choice would be a kettle type grill, along with buying an SnS insert for it. You can smoke and grill on one with excellent results. Here’s a link with a review of The SNS kettle grill.

                    The Slow 'N Sear Kettle Grill is mighty nice, but very similar to the Weber Performer, which is not a bad thing. If you're in the market for a new charcoal kettle grill, read our review because this one may be for you. It's definitely worth consideration. We award the Slow 'N Sear Kettle Grill our AmazingRibs.com Best Value Platinum Medal.
