Propane?!
Ohhhh the humanity....;)
I'm in the middle of changing my residence and have decided that a view and terrace are requirements. Need to find out if charcoal or propane grills are banned.

Yes. $45 on Amazon.

There is room to offset a smaller butt. Room for a big one with the rotisserie kit.

Any of you guys actually Q a pork shoulder ... you know, offset low and slow... in one of those Jumbo Joes?

I've never cooked a low and slow shoulder my charcoal Weber Go Anywhere but have used it successfully for a 9 to 12 lb turke
y.

Can't imagine why a smaller Weber couldn't cook a pork shoulder.

I think it's just a matter of keeping the het source away from the meat, and then also keeping enough fuel in the unit to maintain 250'ish degrees for 12'ish hours. That last part can be a challenge even in a full size kettle

Adding charcoal to an existing cook is a hurdle. Does anyone know if there are hinged cooking grates available ??

It finally rusted out and now carry the Jumbo Joe portable. At 18" its big enough. Big enough to do offset cooking.

Amazon has a rotisserie attachment that adds enough height to do a large butt or beer butt chicken.

Very cool !

Just say NO to propane. :B

I carry a Weber Jumbo Joe and ALSO a Green Mountain Grills Davey Crockett, which I consider to be the best thing since sliced bread !

Easily removed legs for storage, 18KBTU and multi valve.

I have a BK on pay patio. The powder coat/paint on one end of the lid began to flake off after three years on my patio. BK happily sent me the replacement part at no charge including shipping. I then had the chore of the replacement. That was truly an education. The design of the product, the quality of the materials used and the excellent fit and finish were a true revelation. We need a whole lot of manufacturers of this quality. BK is perhaps a little more expensive but their products sure a superior.

A number of years ago I had a Porta Chef! We used the wheels off it for about 10 years and it stayed with of little Class C when we sold it to a young couple buying their first rig. I would not be surprised to learn that the BK is still building steaks!
