YES, ' noticed all of those grills under the tree - "in the background" !! Really enjoy both of my 22" Webers and my Slow and Sear too.
Bought a 'used' basic Performer (it still had the zip ties and manual inside) for $175. Amazing piece of kit if you don't have $400 to spend.
Lots of bells and whistles but I'm convinced its worth the additional $100-$300 above the lower end models.
I love my Performer it's 4 years old and we use it very often. I don't have the propane ignition just use a handy Weber Chimney.
Fantastic video!! A lot of information, but you didn’t make it boring, thank you!!
I have to say , though late to game here, I always thought the Performers were overpriced. Then I found a used one locally, and picked it and have confess having that table and gas ignition system has changed how often I use this kettle over my other grills and I have 9. So now I'm debating whether to sell this one and just get a new one. Mine has that lid that doesn't completely get out of the way and there's some rust, does cook well though. Thanks for the video and your enthusiasm.
I cooked on a smokey joe for a while and crammed some damn meat on it in my phasing out of propane grill. So replacing it i probably could have went with a master touch and been happy but went with the performer deluxe. Being able to roll it around the deck for sun and wind is great. So my idea of a side table and all wasn't needed with the performer. I use my smokey for the chimney after watching your channel! All in all I love the propane ignition cause I don't have to worry with the crumbling wax cubes. The only thing I will say is the digital timer is whatever for me. I think of they made a bluetooth thermometer that could snap in that same spot as a option would be bomb. Im loving it and thank you bro for the inspiration and info to make the purchase of what I wanted.
Nice job. I was confuse on those 3 model. I got ceramic kamado, metal kamado and a pellets pizza oven and it hung for a Weber performer.
i hope you get a commission from my purchase of the Deluxe 22 PERFORMER. I WOULD NOT HAVE BOUGHT IT WITHOUT YOUR VIDEO
Your beard is on point! Perfectly sculpted.
Hey, thanks Mike! Thanks for watching and please sub and hit the bell & a like!!
Like the video it's informative, I've got two gen three performers C&B green and they did not come with a metal table, improved lid bale and taco handle. That would be a gen four.
I would love to see them make a 26’’ performer
Make your own.
"On tonight's episode of Pimp My Grill..."
Thank you this is very helpful. I like the deluxe version.
I just got into the Weber game. Bought a Weber performer premium new for 90$ at an auction. Really lucked up!!
Need to clarify your description of the wok.... It is NOT porcelain cast enamel. It is straight cast iron and is NOT seasoned out of the box. You MUST season the wok before using or your food will stick like cement from your first cook. I used flaxseed oil and a 500 degree oven and applied 6 coats before using.
You very well spoken, your cadence is so clear, good editing, I'd say upgrade mic, audio was not bad just could be better. Thanks for the info. Keep it up. Oh yah liked and subscribed👍👍👍
I didn't know older Webers are collector items.
We just sold a house and moved. I had to limit the stuff we moved with.
I put my 25 year old 22" Weber kettle on Craigs list for free.
Can't believe how fast that went.
I think Weber Performer Deluxe for me now.
Last rodeo and all.
Weber Summit just too big.
Is $150 for gen 2 Deluxe gray top in good condition a good price ?
Love my Weber Performer Deluxe. It's very basic, yet extremely versatile. Boat load of accessories available. I love everything about it. Easy to use, good fire management, easy ash removal and durable. Plus, most importantly it's a great cooker whether it's a steak, burgers, seafood, pizza, or chicken (indirect or rotisserie). It's very versatile. I'll be looking into joining the Weber Kettle Club. I'm sold.
I have used weber kettles my entire life. However, I just got my first, modern, weber Performer Deluxe.
I had to go with the Black. And my only concern is the tiny casters. I'm going to figure a way to put some 10 inch pnuematic wheels on it so it moves easier. (I'm disabled, so mobility is important. )
Im looking for a stainless full coverage flat griddle now. I might just make my own. I love the idea of making giant smokey omelets for an early breakfast before getting my smoke on.
Thanks for the great vid btw!!! I love the weber History!!!
Nice video as always!
I love the generation 1 and 2.
My daily rocker is a gen 2.
I love the appearance of the stainless steel front and the hooks (much better than the newer ones)
The lid bail is a good hint!
I’ll need to change that to a newer version!
Has the part number been changed?
Great history of the kettle my man. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and your camera presence is awesome!!!
Your videos inspired me. Due to your love of the Weber i decided Weber would be my Charcoal unit. (Have Weber gasser and Camp Chef Pellet).
I was going to buy the new Performer Premium at our local Ace on Labor day. Low and Behold as a joke I looked at Craigslist. I just scored an AU (2012) Performer premium in amazing shape. It came with a Weber Chimney, The Weber cover, an unopened bag of Kings ford original, and a steel brush. $50!!!! Thanks to your videos I now have an awesome Charcoal grill. Tomorrow is all about grilling!
Excellent clip. Well done. Very informative. Thank You!
(Regarding one of the previous and unnecessary comments................... ‘Profanity is the effort of a feeble mind to express itself forcibly’.
Thanks bro! Thanks for SUBSCRIBING!! Give a like! RANG DAT BELL!
Great history info on performer. I have the fold down shelf version and love it. Wish it came in more colors but great overall. The wok is best accessory in my opinion. Chili in that bad boy is awesome.
Nice job explaining the Performer history, and the tie-in to WKC. Great video.
If you store these outside...do they need to be covered? Seems like you have some knowledge on the longevity of these.
I really appreciate your research , and enjoy your history lessons of the various products.....You bring a whole new dimension to BarBQ'ing !!
😎👍💯🌟🌟🌟🌟
Loved the video brother 🤙🏾
Killed me on the prices y'all pay. The small performer with the fold down table is a hot ticket over here in AUS, goes for $699 RRP 😪
You should try making a pizza! Love the video.
Hey this was a great and informative video!! I do wish Weber would’ve kept the “handles” on the the Perfomer. It would’ve made it a lot easier to move rather than grabbing the sides of the table surface.
I've watched three straight videos while i'm sitting here at work, bro your channel is awesome!! I have now subscribed and hit the bell. very informative stuff man...keep'em coming!
Broooooo! Thanks so much man, and sorry for the late response. I have more coming soon!!!
Do I just found a 99 in red at the thift store for fuckin $5!!!!!
Thank you. I am deciding between the 22" Master-Touch and performer. This was EXTREMELY helpful
One of the best things I’ve ever done was to get a Weber Performer. A Weber makes you a better griller than you really are
Amen MIke!! And hey, thank you so much for taking the time to comment! Hey, if you could, Subscribe!! Hit like!!! Ring a bell!! It helps me get into the TH-cam world rotation, and it grows this channel!!
Great video 👍 I’ve been using a gen 2 for years. The only thing I would change is the Lid Bale. Where did you purchase the Gen 3 lid bail?
I rebuilt my 20 year old performer and upgraded the bail. The part number was 65188 and I can now open the lid 90°.
@@PotatoWhyKid excellent thank you 👍🏻🇺🇸
Do you ever use an offset smoker? Why or why not?
Just bought the new performer September 2019 and looks like a great grill. Not sure what orientation the chimney should be in order to light with the gas? Are you able to light the chimney, then pick up the chimney,
and pore the hot coals into a slow and seer? Could you please explain.
Just subbed a few days ago and love this channel
I am loving this channel dude! I was thinking of picking up a Master Touch, but now I'm thinking Performer Deluxe. Decisions, decisions...
We have a premium performer. I think we bought it in 2008-10. However it has a "P" code on the
vent cover, which indicates a 1993 model. ?? I know it's newer than 1993. ??
Yes, P is 93!! Keep Cookin' and thanks for watching and subscribing!!!
GEN 3 ash catcher on backwards !
I have one that is plastic table. I thought that was gen 2. It just doesn’t have the starter.
You forgot the Weber with the white plastic side table
I have two weber grill 😊
Hey, I have a Webber 767001 22 1/2-Inch One-Touch Platinum Charcoal Grill I bought in 2004. Last year the plastic table cracked. This year it broke completely. I can’t seem to find a replacement table. Would the table for the Performer fit my grill. I ove my grill and don’t want to replace it just because the table is broke. Thanks
I have a deluxe performer from 2013, I think it is great, would recommend to any one. My only problem was with the auto ignition, gave me problems, now I turn on the gas and light with a lighter, no more problem.
I am just starting to really pay attention to Weber grilling techniques (and am embarrassed at how bad I have been) and your channel is SO informative. Thank you for the work you put in to making these videos! Subscribed now.
Great video! I own the Weber Original with the hub cap ash pan, but I am wanting a performer now lol!
I have two 3rd gen Crate & Barrel grass green performers bought used, they both came with the old style lid bales, plastic tables and were devoid of the GBS grates. The 4th generation performers had most if not all of those upgrades.
Great video, I have had my 22 inch for 25 years along with my 25 year old propane grill, I like the propane grill for back up cooking here in earth quake Cali . You never know .
I have a 22" original series a neighbor was going to put out with the trash when he moved. The grates and one touch were burned out. A few replacement parts later, the old girl is still grilling 3 years later.
In my country deluxe goes for 639€. Thats closer to 700 bucks. But im still gonna buy it. That huge table, gas ignition, gbs accessories and add ons, timer and all the minor accessories and the overall Weber quality is worth the steep price.
Weber Towne is a great place to live in. I buy them new and save all the poor babies that end up on the “ classifieds “ list . I may rehab a few and pass them on to deserving, honest, respectful parents. Kettle Klub is where it is at.
Great video!! Love the detail you provided! Wish I had seen this before buying my Weber 26” & 22” last year!
I got my deluxe about 5 years ago now. It was my first grill and it’s still my favorite today! Matched with my slow n sear it’s perfect!
Any recommendations for paint? The weber performer deluxe I just bought was chipped on the bottoms of the 3 base tubes that go to ash catcher.
None of those are available in Australia, not the gas ones anyway lol those little gas tanks are illegal here
So our Weber performers and summits don’t have the gas igniters on them, just a table
That gen 1 has given me some ideas. Just bought a Mastertouch 22" when all the parts on my 98 Genesis gas grill decided to rust out at once. Already replaced the grates, flavor-bars and burners once about 10 years ago. Not sure I want to make that investment again. The cart, which is almost the same as the gen 1 performer, with a little bit of work would hold a 22" kettle. Hate to give up on the Genesis after 22 years of service but if it could live on as a DIY Performer, that might make it easier to say goodbye. Great video
Love my second gen. I am going to upgrade my lid bail and eventually the top like you did. Thanks
What a great video. I am new to this channel, but I am loving everything I have seen so far. Keep it up and thanks for sharing.
howdy! basically new to grilling, love your vids! i was just gifted an original 22 and feel like i'm gonna want to upgrade elements - any advice on what to prioritize? of course i'll be grilling all the basics but will want to smoke, too. slow n sear? hinged grates? different heavier grates? thanks!
Thanks for all the history on the performer. Now I need to replace my plastic top and the lid holder. Great videos by the way.
And how do you light the charcoal ????
I definitley could do without the starter but I like the storage basket and slightly larger work space of the mid teir model. Just sucks I would be drilling holes in any one of them for a probe port.
Do one on the summit
Hi, I would be interested to see a griddle test on the Weber. Such as the stainless Little Griddle Kettle Q and similar products.
Wow.. Awesome and very informative video. Love your passion for these products. Gave me reassurance that Ive decided on a great grill. To be honest, really did not know as much about the gourmet system until you explained it and showed off the accessories. Thanks for your time in putting this together.
Just bought my first grill, a used Weber performer off marketplace. I am in the process of remodeling a house and getting married. Don"t have a lot of time or cash to spend on a grill. What would you recommend for budget charcoal grilling accessories? I'm the first in my family to get charcoal grill, I am a rookie at this.
I am in the process of ordering the deluxe model and ask if you can recommend a fish grill that can accommodate a 3 lb salmon filet. Ace Hardware had an oval-shaped grill with red rubber handles with a hinge at the opposite, end but I can't find it through Amazon. I would share a photo of it with you but unsure how to do so in this comment (my ex-roommate owns the fish grills). thanks!
Excellent Video man! Really good. Thank you!
Just picked up a used performer in great condition for £40! Its in the back of my van I can't play with it till later so here I am!
Thanks for all the info! I was going to get a Q propane grill from Weber but now I think i'm going Performance Deluxe!
I just received my Weber 22 in. Performer Deluxe Charcoal Grill in Green about an hour ago. I just put it together but, what's that long chain with that wire attached that hangs from the inside for that was wrapped up and suck inside the front panel? I’m Not talking about the charcoal bucket wire. I found no illustrations or references about this. Thanks
It’s a manual ignition if the one the gas uses stops working
Can u do a video comparing the pit barrel smoker vs barrelhouse cooker.
What grill would you suggest for someone in a small duplex with 7 feet of yard
Great video. Might just have to finally pull the trigger on one of these bad boys.
Great video. You should of mention the platinum “performer” the smaller one old school.
Where did you order your gourmet grates, table and your gen 3 lid holder? Want to make some upgrades to my gen 2
Do you recommend it gentlemen? Or the version that has only side table
Artiflame has a attachment for kettle 22 u should get one to cook one i kno im goin to
I have the first generation, I wanna restore it, any tips or links would be great
You substituted the metallic top from a fiberglass one. Can you please include a link to which you purchased? Thanks
I bought the 2 gen one of market place and someone made I custom wood table. It’s pretty nice. I paid 80 for it
Watching this I think I have a gen 2. Got to get that gen 3 lid holder now.
Man, loved the video, I think you really help me make my decision! Never cared for Weber Grills, but I will be buying one pretty soon! Thanks!
Boom!! Mission Accomplished!!! Thanks for SUBSCRIBING!! Give a like! RANG DAT BELL!
Nailed it!
Time for me to accessorize!
Are all the grill grates the same gauge and metal?
Great informative video, thanks for sharing!
Awesome video! Love the history
Are you in Gloucester? That grill store sure does look familiar...
Yuup!
Ordered the deluxe yesterday. Great video but did not shorten my anticipation.
Good choice! Thanks for watching! And hit the sub and the bell if ya haven't!!
Very insightful! Just got a classic Red with a rotisserie! Wasn't exactly sure what the gas connection was for, but I do now! Thanks a ton!
Man, that thing is great for lighting a chimney of coals!!!! Thanks for the sub!!!
You bet! Smoke on!
Don’t you dare talk about my mama!
Very informative ......thank you.
Great videos man!!
I love my Performer Deluxe so much! I have a copper gen 3 with gas ignition. It makes charcoal cooking so dang easy!
If “easy” is what you’re after, why not just use a gas grill?
Sometimes I do jhitt79! I own the Weber Summit 670s (the big one). It’s great for quick and easy grilling!
It’s also great to have a quick and easy ignition system for charcoal in the Performer Deluxe! That, along with the table and the charcoal storage, makes the Performer Deluxe a great tool to get the job done. My first Weber was a 22” red kettle that was the base model. It was 20 years old when I saved it from a yard sale where they only wanted $5 for it. I restored it and happily used it for 9 years before selling it to a friend and upgrading to the copper Performer Deluxe. I’m glad the red kettle is still being used today!
I’m gonna flex a little: I also own the 18” Smokey Mountain, the Weber Q 1200, and the Jumbo Joe. Each one has its purpose, and I wouldn’t get rid of any of them!
Joey is Losing Weight
Don’t get me wrong I really like Weber products in general. I personally have 2 Performers, 1 basic kettle, 1 14” kettle, 18” WSM, Q2000 (that I keep at work), and a Genesis silver b (for hot dogs n such.). I just think that when it comes to the performers, Weber is using their name to overcharge people. I don’t see the $300 value in a small table, a plastic bin, and gas ignition that I feel is on the wrong side.
jhitt79 I thinks it’s great you got one for $50! When I restored the old kettle, I spent about $30 in new parts, so in all I paid $35 when a new one cost $90 at the time. I’m glad I gave the old girl new life, and that she is still working for my friend and his family. I personally think the Performer Deluxe is worth the money. I bought one at full price and love it! I’ve recommended it to friends, but I’ve also told them just buy a Weber Kettle at whatever price point they can get one at, as the kettle itself is the same thing. The more you pay the more little things you get and I am glad to have the one with all the bells and whistles!
Thank u for deciding which grill too go with
Any time J! Thanks for SUBSCRIBING!! Give a like! RANG DAT BELL!
“This is my daily work horse. I cook on it about three times a week”
lol
500$ for an 89$ grill
LOL, where can you get a new one for that?! LOL
