We have two weber kettle grills (one LARGE and one small/average), the SnS and the Weber Smokey Mountain 18" smoker. We use both natural lump charcoal and KNB for smoking and measure our temps with a Maverick 733, thermopen and MK4. Favorite beer depends on what is cooking (alt answer is yes).
Scotch: Current favorite- The Arran (anything by them), Glenmorangie 12yr Lasanta, sherry cask finished. The Balvenie Double Wood, also like Oban 18yr, and The Glenlivet Nadurra (Oloroso sherry cask finished) among others. Neat please.

I have a porch light that I turn on....it does ok but not like those late summer evenings of lingering sunlight. I also have a little grill light somewhere that I bought a while ago on DWCowles' recommendation but I haven't taken it out of the box yet. #lazy
I use the porch light myself for the grill. I agree with Huskee 's assessment of it's functionality. My Masterbuilt has a built-in LED that lights up the inside of the smoker box.

Gents, If you come up with the Correct Answer please let me know! Like Huskee I have been relying on the Porch Lights and the Shadows?😚ðŸ¤â€Ã°Å¸Ëœâ„¢

Head lamps are great. Use it grilling or just around the house. Your hands are free and the light shines wherever you're looking. What else do you want?
+1 more for the headlights. Use them a lot when working on the car as well. Nothing like hands-free light and more of a multi-tasker than a dedicated grill light.
My new house diesnt have spot lights set up towards my grills yet. I'm using one I got for Christmas a few years back for my weber gasser. Its brookstone i think.
Hi, my name is Darrell. I'm an OTR truck driver for over 25 years. During my off time I love doing backyard cooks. I have a 48" Lang Deluxe smoker, Rec-Tec pellet smoker,1 Weber Genesis 330, 1 Weber Performer (blue), 2 Weber kettles (1 black and 1 Copper), 1 26" Weber kettle, a WSM, 8 Maverick Redi Chek thermometers, a PartyQ, 2 SnS, Grill Grates, Cast Iron grates, 1 ThermoPop (orange) and 2 ThermoPens (pink and orange) and planning on adding more cooking accessories. Now I have an Anova sous vide, the Dragon blower and 2 Chef alarms from Thermoworks.
I was at Lowe's a couple days ago and I saw a LED flashlight that straps on your head and I said to myself "l know what that light will be perfect for". So I bought it and I was right it works like a charm. I also have two or three grill lights somewhere that I haven't use yet (I think I had them for. Over a year but I keep forgetting about them. But I think I like my LED light better be it moves when I move.
I got a GrillLit that used to be recommended on AR. So far it has been great. I also just got a headlamp to do other work with, but have yet to try it for grilling.
