I wish I could find an old school Performer. I bought mine in 2011 and they had already moved on to the plastic ones.

So my Performer has no ash sweeper. Should I be able to order a standard replacement part and install it on this old grill?

Thanks, Mr. Bones I was pretty sure that was the case but decided to pose the question just in case. I already have it on order.

FYI: If you ever have to replace the ash sweepers on a Performer this old you will not need (or be able to use) the bottom round piece because there is a simple bracket in the stack that holds the ash catcher.

Cooking over natural wood is truly something better. There is no substitute. Congrats on the upgrade.

Other Info
If not cooking outdoors, I am cooking on the stovetop with my 14" carbon steel wok, 12" CI skillet, or in the oven with my two Lodge CI pizza pans, or two dutch ovens. I've also got a nifty Lodge carbon steel grill pan that rocks for veggies outdoors.

Amazing cook, and interesting direction your MCS has taken you! The Santa Maria style cooking looks intriguing, and I may have to ponder one of these for my Performer. Right now I've got to master the new grill that is arriving tomorrow...

Brilliant. There’s no better way to cook tri-tip and steaks than on a Santa Maria style grill!
