Needing a charcoal grill in addition to my wonderful OK Joe Highland

[Tallbald]

Hello fellow folks of the smoke! With help here I've become a passable smoker of wonderful meats such as pork loin, butts, and beef roasts. I could NOT have done what I've done without your all's help and I've recommended this fine forum to others often.
I've heavily modified my affordable OK Joe Highland into a tool I can use and am proud of. BUT, and I've posted this before, I won't use it as a charcoal grill. It's my dedicated tool. I want a kettle style charcoal grill for pork steaks, burger and sausages. The Weber Classic 22 inch premium comes to mind but at $150 I'm wondering about a less expensive, comparable quality brand and model.
I hope to learn of one with the porceline (spelling?) coated metal body instead of paint, the dust capture pot underneath and the hinged grill grid.
Is there another brand folks can suggest I study please? Thanks as always. Don.

I'd stick with a weber . Watch craigs list , they come up all the time for a good price .

I think you will be much happier if you just get a Weber right off the bat, cause that is what you will end up with after your cheaper model falls apart.

I just searched Craigs list for Kentucky . Used Bowling Green . Nice premium kettle $35 .

The Weber original is only 99.00 dollars brand new or you can usually score a used for under 50.00.
