wife says three BBQ' is too many for our small patio. is that possible?

1) Webber performer - This was my go to grill for everything until i bought my:

2) Traeger Eastwood 22 - just got it and love it.


3) her gas grill/non-negotiable. sorry i don't know what brand it is, I've only use it once. she uses it to sear after sous-viding (spelling?)
 
That's definitely not too many. I have six and they all get used. Just two of us(doesnt mean I dont get a little grief from my better half) (i dont criticize how many pairs of shoes a person should own).
 
I got 3 myself, I don't think it's to many. especially since my wife bought me two of them.

The answer is there are never too many! I have 4 not including other grills and things and I still have my eye on about 3 others!
 
Myself... I think you need a stick burner now... Tell her every time she buys a new pair of shoes or a purse or whatever... you get a new grill/smoker... LOL... and then let us all know how that works...

If you “know” how many you have you don’t have enough.......let’s see I have.......9 (3 wood burners, 2 pellets, 4 gassers) and plans for 4 ish more (2 wood burners & 1 wood/coal hybrid).......and a full brick oven! ......I know I have a problem.......
 
Well I have,
2 original Weber Performers, (the ones with the Stainless Steel tops).
1 new style Performer, painted steel top,
1 Weber 200 Q
1 GOSM Big Block smoker

So I say no, you are just starting to get into the groove!
 
I have 3 looking to a 4th only she doesn't know it yet lol got a used brinkmann offset and refurbished it, got a master built vertical propane smoker and a 4 burner propane grill, just need to add a charcoal kettle type to the mix.
 
You can see from my sig that I am with the ‘mo is better’ camp here. Son in law has an old stick burner we will refurb, and I’m pining to add a pellet also. And yes, all getting used for various reasons.
Don’t need fewer units, just need a bigger deck!
