I finally got a crew free to come over tomorrow to tear out the little strip of concrete by the back door and lay pavers so I'll have room to accommodate the new grill. Two pallets of pavers, base and sand are in the yard waiting courtesy of HD.
So I called Workbench Ace to see if they had one in a box(only way it'll fit in my 4Runner) and now there's one sitting in the back with my name on it!
I am so stoked!!!
David Parrish, where's the SNS for this grill? Put me on the list!
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.
David, I'm not sure either but I'll definitely let you know. Love my SNS, it's already got a new home along with the copper Performer that's going to my best friend. Or maybe not...
Thanks all! There will definitely be pictures although the unboxing will have to wait for Sunday morning. I'll have to wait for the guys to finish the pavers then drive down to Atlanta to pick it up and stop by Harry's on the way back for ground beef so I can cook the Saturday Night Burgers on the PK.
But I'll definitely get some "before and after" pix of the grilling area in the morning and the afternoon! Thanks again to all for the support!
Will do for at least a week. I have a couple racks of SLC ribs to do on Sunday anyway and I'm not going to do ribs for a first cook on a freshly assembled grill, they're going on the SNS/kettle.
And I'm not sure I'll let my SNS #40 go with the Performer anyway, if it doesn't work with the SCG I may just hang it on the wall for posterity. You done really good with the SNS, my hat's off to you along with my appreciation. Keep up the good work!
@billig71, I envy You! ðŸ‘ÂðŸ‘Â😪ðŸ‘ÂðŸ‘Â. I hope you will provide Pics and Your impressions as you start to use it! I have only seen One, at an Ace Hdw. open house, they had just put it together and it hadn't even been priced yet!

Ok, the guys showed up at 7:30 this morning, they were done and on the road before noon.
Before and after pics:
And that's the guys who did it in the after pic, they're the best crew I've ever had and I've been running construction for 30 years. They've been working with me for the last 14 years and I can't say enough about them, they absolutely rock! They busted out 40 sft. of concrete, removed the 4'x8' pavers I put in last year, dug out, put in base, leveled and tamped , spread sand and laid 85 sft. of pavers in 4 hours, not to mention moving all the grills! It took me a week of mornings and evenings to lay the 4'x8' section you see in the first photo and I almost killed myself in the process.
I returned the tamp to HD at 12:15 with 45 minutes left on my 4 hour rental and headed for Atlanta to pick up the SCG. After fighting traffic and making a couple of stops along the way I got home in time to start prepping the Saturday Night Burgers, so the new Weber is still in the box in the back of the 4Runner. I'll drag it out and put it together in the morning while it's cool.
