December dinner party

[gooose53]

Had one small brisket, two pork loins and two fatties. One guest said they were upset with their mother.....not sure why.

Thanks, needed more room so went off to ACE hardware....man they got everything you need (almost). Just so noone wonders....all hardware is stainless steel.

Good looking grub you got there.
They were mad at their mother for never making them fatties . Or maybe for not teaching them to cook as good

Are those I bolts and washers holding up the top grate?

 

[gooose53]

It's a 3 ft length of threaded steel rod that ACE cut for me about 7 inches. I used 1/4 in nuts and washers to attach to the bottom grate and added just a nut and washer to hold up the top grate. I later added another nut to make is a little more steady. The reason for making the threaded rod a little bigger is that they can still be adjusted if I only have spares on or made bigger if I want to add a brisket or butt.

Good looking Q on that Weber, and congrats on the mods. You're a handyman and a creative one too!

Thanks for the info. That gives me an idea of something to do for my Webers. I have a 22.5", and 18", and a 14". I may put together a system like that where I can make use of all of the grates. It'd be great to be able to pack a lot of chops or country style into the 22.5" when cooking for a large group.

Cookie,

Another option to try is a restaurant supply store and ask for a round 18" steamer stand. I went to one locally and picked one up for about $11 and will work about the same, except you will not have the ability to change the height.

Thanks. I recently learned of such a store in my area and will be checking it out soon.
