Low Price Coleman 9949-750 Road Trip Grill, Red


I have only used the grill once because I just got it a couple of weeks ago. But, I love it. This grill has a large cooking area. I had like 8 to 10 Ka-Bobs on there are one time. I have seen some reviews that said that it got to hot in the center and did not cook evenly. I think this is partially true, but it was not a problem for me. You can always rearrange you food while flipping sides and so on. I have no complaints about the grill. Can't wait to use it again! Tailgating this weekend!Get more detail about Coleman 9949-750 Road Trip Grill, Red.

Discount Weber 741001 22 1/2-Inch One-Touch Silver Kettle Grill, Black


While this grill does an excellent job of cooking various meals I now wish I had foreseen the following:
1 - no side table to place the food both before and after cooking
2 - no place to hang your barbecue utensils
3 - the lid has no hinge meaning you have to set the cover aside every time you need access
4 - assembly was not so easy

However, in its' defense, the meats I've barbecued have come out excellent! Very thourough and evenly cooked food.
All in all, for the price it's a decent bargain.Get more detail about Weber 741001 22 1/2-Inch One-Touch Silver Kettle Grill, Black.

Like most people on this site I liked smoked meats as much as the next person. Dont get caught up in the negative reviews about this smoker. I bought the Bradley 4 rack smoker abouth 9 months ago, and let me tell you it is the best smoker ever. Who has the time to sit and watch a fire all day just to get smoked food out of it. This is simple and the flavor is amazing. Everyone I know that has tasted the finished product has absolutley loved it. If you are thinking about buying this smoker dont waste time your time and efforts comparing this to other smokers this is the best bang for your buck.

Cheap Weber 7527 Stainless Steel Replacement Cooking Grates

Buying Bayou Classic 5011 2-oz. Stainless Steel Seasoning Injector w/2 Stainless Needles: one for liquid marinaide, and one for minced herbs


We use Kraft Tuscan House Italian salad Dressing for our Chicken and Turkey
marinade. The problem with that salad dressing is the herbs stick in most
injectors. We actually broke a cheap injector trying to squeeze it too hard!

This Bayou classic injector has a needle for herb type mariandes.
Kraft makes great salad dressing and on chicken and turkey it's brilliant.
But it's loaded with herbs and spices. Well, fear not.
The needle is so sharp I can't imagine any meat it can't penetrate and
while the bigger herbs might need a bit more push or pull it works
flawlessly.

On chicken breasts it slides in and is super easy to inject just the amount
you want. It's built like a tank and my only complaint is that it was missing
a rubber washer on one of the needles. But we don't use pure liquid marinades
anyway so it's not a problem.

It's also easy to clean, just unscrew the cap and the needle.
This one looks like it will last us a long time and we eat either chicken
or turkey daily, so this is going to get a lot of use.

We will try it with steak tips in a couple of weeks and see how that works.
But if you want to inject mariande with herbs into your meat, without them
getting stuck in the needle, THIS is the unit you are looking for.Get more detail about Bayou Classic 5011 2-oz. Stainless Steel Seasoning Injector w/2 Stainless Needles: one for liquid marinaide, and one for minced herbs.

Buy Bradley All Weather Cover 4 Rack


This is a nice looking cover, but I guarantee you'll be buying another one in less than a year. It fits nicely as well, I just wish they would make it out something a little more durable. That being said, It's been a year and I'm buying a new one just before the rainy season hits.Get more detail about Bradley All Weather Cover 4 Rack.

Purchase Taylor 807 Weekend Warrior Digital Fork Thermometer


I bought this in June based on reviews on Amazon. I just pulled out the unit to use it for a late season BBQ and it's dead. 3 sets of brand-new, confirmed-working batteries, unit is dead. Amazon has no return policy for it and I'm now looking to get something from "Taylor".Get more detail about Taylor 807 Weekend Warrior Digital Fork Thermometer.

Order Weber 1520 Propane Gas Go-Anywhere Grill


After 11 years our Go-Anywhere Weber Grill that we use for camping bit the dust. It would not light anymore. It would have been pricey to replace the automatic ignition lighter, so we just replaced the whole unit. We checked out the new Weber portable BBQs, but like the say, the old model is the best.We look forward to another 10 years or more of using this great Weber product.Get more detail about Weber 1520 Propane Gas Go-Anywhere Grill.

Where To Buy Weber 586002 Q 320 Portable Outdoor Gas Grill


I ordered this item on 10/27/09 using super saver shipping, and here it is 11/1/09 and it's still not yet shipped out!!! I would love to be able to rate this item by now but, it's impossible since I am still waiting for Amazon to fulfill my order on this item. I guess I'll know better next time to use their "Super Saver Shipping", it definitely doesn't save me anything. Hopefully I'll be able to get it before Thanksgiving at this rate...

Update:

Finally recieved this item on 11/4/09 and tried it out that night due to the packaging being damaged when it come in. Even so the unit itself doesn't seem to be damaged as it cooked rather well on it's first try. Used it to cook some NY Strips and potatoes. The grill fired right up, the light come in handy, (no batteries come with it for the light though, it does come with one in the starter.) The unit heated right up to 400º F right off the bat with it being 52º F outside and lowering the temp to about midways for both knobs, even reducing the temp to "LOW" for both knobs it maintained 350-375º F with the top down. I don't see grilling a turkey for thanksgiving on it but, it's definitely big enough to grill just about anything else you put on a grill for a family of about 4-5. I noticed the Q-120 has a way to store grilling tools under the trays, though they fold up instead of down like this unit does, I do wish they could have done something like that for this unit. Granted this units table must be more stable than the one that folds up, it would be nice to be able to have a place to store the tools with the unit with it covered somehow. Maybe a small basket across the front of the unit, to also hold things like a spray bottle, sauces, tools, etc. on it. One small gripe I have is that with the unit weighing in around 100 lbs, (with a 20 lb. tank of gas,) this unit doesn't have a sturdy handle to move it around with and the two stubs by the plastic table are rather short. Granted a lot of people will just put this in one place, cover it, and leave it there but, there are those of us who like to store our grills in the bad weather months and those two stubs on each side makes it kinda hard to move this grill around when you have to carry it up/down steps. Also, the directions could have used more words in them on how to put everything together, though the pictures were usable in most places, a few places you had to guess what it was trying to tell you.

All-In-All this seems to be a great little grill, though I am interested in how long this will last, even with the 5 year warranty that comes on it. Being Weber has been around a long time, (I can barely remember a time when they weren't around,) I don't look for them to fold up and go away anytime soon either, so I don't feel like I have gone wrong. I would rate this 4 ½ Stars if it were possible as I really believe this is a great grill even with my few small gripes above. (About the grill itself, not Amazon, I am still reserving judgement on them for the shipping fiasco. Taking a week to ship a product that was clearly in stock when I ordered it and stayed as such through the time it actually shipped out, when they require all their "Merchants" to ship within 2 days. Granted it was with "Super Saver Shipping" that shouldn't matter and the fact it doesn't mention that it would take longer to ship out in the "Fine Print", you have to actually dig around to find this information out that it takes longer than normal to ship out and that they define free shipping as "When you don't care when you get it as long as shipping is free". I seriously don't know anyone who doesn't care "WHEN" then receive a purchase after placing an order and this information I feel should be in the "Fine Print" or better still upfront.)Get more detail about Weber 586002 Q 320 Portable Outdoor Gas Grill.

Shop For Steven Raichlen Best of Barbecue SR8037 Insulated Food Gloves, Pair


I ordered these for my husband's birthday because he needed a pair of grilling gloves. When I received the package and read the box, the product cautions that these gloves are to be used ONLY with hot food. So much for manning the smoker. Sure, he will use these to pull piping hot pork and shred steaming brisket, but if you are looking for something to use while BBQ-ing, find another pair. I wish the product overview would have made this clear.Get more detail about Steven Raichlen Best of Barbecue SR8037 Insulated Food Gloves, Pair.

GasWatch TVL212 Propane-Level Indicator and Safety Gauge


I had my first one for about 3 years before the plastic gasket broke. Without it the gauge cannot seal onto the tank. It cannot be replaced by any store that I checked locally or online. Still, I love the product so much I bought a second one. This time I'll be more gentle when handling it so as not to destroy the gasket again. We grill almost every day and have found this simple device to be indispensable.Get more detail about GasWatch TVL212 Propane-Level Indicator and Safety Gauge.

Bradley 5 Flavor Variety, 60-Pack Review


As others, I am fairly new to smokers, smoking meats and the Bradley Smoker. I can say that so far these "bisquettes" have worked perfectly to date. The "bisquettes", along with the Bradley Smoker, make smoking an excellent addition to the kitchen, and the meats, ribs, and fish turned out to be very appetizing, and we can't get enough of it. I know I'll keep buying them...

Shop For Weber 7416 Rapidfire Chimney Starter


I spent a lot of time in the summer making barbeques and this season have continued into the autumn. Living up-state in the mountains I have struggled to get the coals going and even resorted once to using lighter fluid. Desperate for a solution I purchased the weber chimney and have so far used it twice - once in rain - and it has performed perfectly. I followed instructions to the letter - simply crushing newspaper into the base and placing coals atop them and used a match. An excellent device and highly recommendedGet more detail about Weber 7416 Rapidfire Chimney Starter.

Order Maverick Remote-Check Wireless Thermometer With 2 Probes


The first unit received would not transmit a signal (30 feet) consistantly from my barbeque to my kitchen. I returned it and received another which seems to maintain an uninterrupted signal for the 30 minutes of outside cooking. An audible alarm which alerts one that the signal has been lost would be a vital improvement to this gadget. In the mean time, I will check the signal often and regularly. The reported temperatures seem to be accurate, the instructions are straigtforward and the two probes are handy.Get more detail about Maverick Remote-Check Wireless Thermometer With 2 Probes.

Purchase Bayou Classic 3066A 30-Quart Outdoor Turkey Fryer Kit


As another poster mentioned, the paint doesn't last past the first use of this product. What he didn't go into, however, is that this paint is apparently flammable. On my second use of the burner I had the gas flowing at about 90%, left to go inside to grab something to drink, came back outside and the entire unit was in flames. If you are going to buy this burner, make sure you keep a very very VERY close eye on it until the paint burns (not melts, burns) off. I'd even advise trying to scrape the paint off as a precautionary measure.

Other than that, the pot and accessories served their purposes well. Just wish that if the paint was going to burn off from the get-go that they'd just sent one without any paint on it at all.Get more detail about Bayou Classic 3066A 30-Quart Outdoor Turkey Fryer Kit.

Buy Bayou Classic SP10 High-Pressure Outdoor Gas Cooker, Propane


I would have given this a 5 star review, except that it took about 3 hours to burn off all the paint fumes from the burner during a test boil. That basically killed about 1/4 of my tank of propane and smelled terrible. Other than that, it is a powerful, efficient and FUN alternative to the grill or stove top. I used it twice already to make a couple batches of 6-gallon beer, and it worked great! Went from steeping at 160`F to a rolling boil in under 10 minutes. Highly recommended.

Cheap Weber 721001 Smokey Mountain Cooker 18-1/2-Inch Smoker


Have now produced about 80 lbs. of smoked meat products on the Weber in five cooking sessions and am frankly amazed at the quality of the result and the ease of use. But, it is probably too easy. If word gets out we will have little girls producing tender, juicy, smoke-ring brisket and the manly pastime of barbecue will be forever lost. What I am trying to say is that once you follow the simple directions in loading, lighting and adjusting the vents the smoker it will just motor on automatic pilot for hours and hours. No tending the fire, adding additional fuel, opening and closing vents, it just cruises. My first cook I fed 20 people on two briskets and six large rib racks and received many justified compliments. If you are not convinced by me, motor over to the Virtual Weber Bullet website and listen to the other owners rave about this product. Its only problem is that it takes the artistry out of barbecue cooking -- so just keep this little secret between us.

Save Weber Style 6445 Professional-Grade Stainless-Steel 3-Piece Barbeque Tool Set


I grill a lot. When I got married, one of the gifts received was a grill tools set from a well-known high-end cooking shop (I don't know if Amazon wants other companies mentioned by name). They are beautiful, work well, but they have rosewood handles, that while pretty and functional mean you can't leave them outside and the dishwasher is off-limits. I've always admired people that clean up immediately after eating and entertaining but try as I might, I will never be one of them. I would love to leave my tongs hanging off the side of the grill until I'm good and ready to clean up and put stuff away- usually the next morning as I tend to enjoy many adult beverages while preparing said BBQ feasts! I came to dread pulling out my very pretty BBQ tools because I knew it meant I'd be washing them in the sink and I can't tell you how much I hate that. When I switched from cooking on a gasser to using charcoal and wood, I began cooking on the grill more and more. And I started hating my grill tools more and more. When I saw these, they looked like it would be the answer I needed. They are solid. They feel good in the hand. The tongs open widely, are spring-loaded and have a lock on them to lock closed. The spatula has a beveled leading edge which makes it easier to slide under your burgers. The fork is a fork, don't know anyone that actually uses these but whatever, it's included. All three have hooks to hang them on things and rubber where your hand grips the tool. And they are DISHWASHER-SAFE. Yeah, boy, I love these things. Toss them in the dishwasher when you are done and they look as good as they did the day you bought them. I guess they are relatively expensive but I've never minded paying for quality and I feel they are worth what they cost. They should last a good long time and expect to use these for many years.Get more detail about Weber Style 6445 Professional-Grade Stainless-Steel 3-Piece Barbeque Tool Set.
