Our New Weber

Geoff: Hey, I am thinking about taking the plunge and making this purchase... it's black, made of aluminum and stainless steel, and the fuel won't be that expensive. 

Me: OK...

Geoff: It has great features. There is a built-in thermometer, a cool touch handle, and a high capacity ash tray.

Me: Sounds great, but an ash tray? You don't smoke.

Geoff: Well I want to start. It requires some assembly -- I'll really have to make sure the wheels are on tight. You don't want them falling off.

Me: ... I guess that's true. What kind of car is this again?

Geoff: ... uhh... it's a grill.



Oh.

Right.

A grill.


I was very happy once I figured out that the smoking Geoff wanted to do involved salmon, and not les cigarettes. 

We bought the charcoal grill Geoff was pining for on Amazon, because the pricing was on point, and because, Prime. It's Weber's 22.5-inch One Touch Gold Kettle Grill, and man oh man was Geoff excited.

Here are some photos of the inaugural spin.
We made simple kebobs with filet mignon, red pepper, red onions, and mini-portobello mushrooms.

Cubby says: are you planning to drop any pieces?

On the lookout now for good grill recipes to try.
