I have a WSM 18, but this is my first kettle. My wife is awesome! Made steaks first, then smoked some ribs because I wanted to try a smoke on it, then made a beef tenderloin smoked and seared. Chicken quarters are next! Huge step up in my grill game, so much easier to cook on than my previous grills, and so many great features!

    I ran my first briskets in 2011 on mine (Fathers Day Gift) and still own that very grill. They are awesome

    Chicken quarters done with the vortex are quick and easy. Congratulations my friend!

    Congrats. Love my Performer.
    I recently gave away my pellet grill because I realized I could do everything I need with a kettle and my Weber Spirit gasser.

    You’re going to love that thing so much. I’m on my 3rd kettle and 2nd Performer since I was in my 20s. The versatility is second to none.
