    Hello from Chicago

    Hi, Jason from Chicago here aka "Retailgeek".

    I recently bought a condo with a modest deck that allowed grills, and found this website while researching what grill to buy.

    I'm definitely a novice, I grew up cooking burgers on grills, but never put any thought into what I was doing or tried anything more ambitious. But I've been soaking up all the great articles here and am eager to learn more.

    I ended up getting a Weber Spirit S-220 (2-burner natural gas), as it was about the biggest size that fit on our deck and our deck has a natural gas line. I'm doing some dry-runs calibration now, to see if I can dial in my indirect heat setup.

    I look forward to learning from you all. Cheers,

    -Jason

    Natural Gas, that will be nice if you do some low and slow long cooks on that dude.

    Someone else lives up there....maybe Meathead and Max
