    Haven’t used my kettle in seven or eight years. But after watching your video, I’m going back. I just seem to use my pellet or my griddle but really for steaks they’ve never turned out as good as doing them on a charcoal grill so I think it’s time to go back to the basics. Thank you.

    Couldn't agree more about the Weber Kettle. I had a Weber Q gas grill for over 10 years and it worked great, but it was shot after all those years and was all set to replace it with another gas grill. Then I still had my Dad's very old Weber Kettle that doesn't even have any kind of openings on the bottom, the air vents are on the side and the lid. I tell you, that Kettle works so great, I have been on the barbeque kick since. Thanks to youtube videos like these, I was finally able to 'Q up chicken for the first time without ruining it. Two zone grilling works so well! I don't know if I'll ever go back to a gas grill again!

    Great review I’m debating getting the SNS kettle or Weber performer premium! Can you use the vortex and Weber heat controller on the SNS? Also do you think the SNS is better for low and slow compared to the Weber, basically set it and forget it?

    • @bobapple3866
      @bobapple3866 Місяць тому

      Hello, not sure what a vortex heat controller is, may be a fan attachment that allows more airflow, meaning more heat. Usually, you adjust the temperature via the vents as he mentions. There are temp probes that work well which allow you to understand the temperatures. I have had a Weber kettle for years, works well. It is possible to purchase one of those spinning grills for a Weber, I also have a couple of charcoal baskets and a hinged grill, I think I would like the spinner deal he has. The SNS would be a fine choice. Happy barbecuing (indirect) and grilling (direct heat).
