    Peter…thanks for the info! I think it’s time for me to buy a new Weber!

  6. Hey npadams — …
    Hey npadams — BBQMyWay is mistaken – the “flip up sides” grill comes with the higher end Webers but also can be bought separately at Home Depot. I just bought the basic 22.5″ grill and bought the flip up grill for $19. My first Weber recently bit the dust after 12 years out in the elements. I don’t think Weber has cheapened the grills. The plastic handles are better than wood (my wood handles rotted off at 5 years), and the new bottom vent setup is far superior and probably cost more to make.

  7. Great question. …
    Great question. That Weber is probably 15 years old. The new Webers have gone a bit cheaper, eliminating he hinging with an open area on both sides.

    But rest assured while a bit more tedious, indirect grilling is still possible on the new Weber grills.

    Thanks for stopping by!

  8. Where do you get …
    Where do you get the grate with the hinges on it? I have looked at most of the places that sell Weber grills, and haven’t seen one for sale. It’s obvious that you need one to properly cook with indirect heat.

  9. You certainly …
    You certainly shouldn’t get huge friers. Mine are around 3.5 to 4 lbs each. The lid barely fits. Maybe your Weber is a bit smaller than mine.

  10. I wonder how do you …
    I wonder how do you close the lid? I have a weber one touch grill just like yours, after the chicken stood up, there was no way to close the lid, not enough headroom clearance man. sucks

  11. Based on how many …
    Based on how many views and subscribers they have the majority of BBQ fans might beg to differ. But, thanks for the kind words.

  12. Your videos are …
    Your videos are great and your chickens look better than the ones from the pit boys. He’s a stupid hillbilly!!!

    What’s the name and model of the wireless thermometer you’re using in this video?

    I am pretty sure it is the 22 inch. I bought it so long ago I can’t be sure, and I am too lazy to go measure it.

    Is that an 18″ Weber grill or a 22″? Thanks.

    This is definitely the most interesting post I have ever had on this website. Thanks for stopping by!

    Cooking one today! I picked up a fresh fryer yesterday. By fresh, I mean at 10am it had feathers, at 11am, it did not. Last year I tried something different and did a beer-can turkey. Crazy, huh? Same concept but you’ll need a Fosters, Tooey’s, or some other large import can. I had to fashion a stand out of metal that resembles the kind for chickens. Yes, it’s an all day affair w/ lots of coal & wood but worth it! And your right, makes incredible chicken (or turkey!) salad. – Spring,Tx.

    I know my name looks like chick Obama as in a girl who really supports the new president. However, the name was a weird attempt to provoke Alabama football fans. It has worked pretty well.
    It is really Chicko bama.

    The lid to the Weber fits over the verticle chickens?

  23. 2 hours should be …
    2 hours should be fine, depending on how hot the fire is. You can tell when it’s done by tugging on a leg. If it moves about freely and would be easy to pull off, it’s done. Glad I could clue you in on the open grill ends!!!!

    if i’m only cooking one chicken do i still cook it for 2-2 1/2 hours? and thanx for lettin me know why my grill opens on both ends.lol
