ok, well I got my daughter a blue weber performer and myself a 18 WSM. my wife on the way to work on Tuesday comes out to the patio and said that it was very nice of me to get the girl a new weber kettle. she ask why she didn't get a grill? what? when do you ever cook out here? I would if I had my own grill. fine, what kind of grill would you like dear? I do miss my old weber q grill. fine. I will check on them. and off she goes.
bam, right to craigslist. I found a brand new weber q 220 for $125. brand new. i emailed the guy and got his address to go pick it up around 5 pm. ya every see a address and know it's not in the best part of town. this one was like that. i don't own a gun but lets just say i was prepared. i showed up and the guy takes me out back to his shed. he has one 220q, 320q and 4 webers kettles all in original weber boxes. okie dokie. deal. i'm out of here.
looky, looky.

The story you told makes me think those webers were hot ???

I'll bet the "butt squeeze" was worth it, too.

I've bought a Q-220 & a Q-320 for kids & not only are they great grills for quik cooks but nearly indistructable
My son has had a Q220 uncovered on his deck for 6 years ( yes he had a cover at one time)
It hasn't rusted, it still lights & cooks fine , just a little faded!
Q-320 too new to judge but I expect it'll last a long time!
-
What a nice find!
Good for you! Looks like it makes a great steak.

Sparky, you buy your wife a grill, throw some red meat on it, cook it just perfect, serve it up, and get a butt squeeze. That is a good sign my friend. You can probably walk on water for the next 24 hrs. ;)
Oh....great deal on the grill and that steak looked nice.

Nice job, Sparky! Good score and a great first cook!

Nice work. And a squeeze on the tush.

Nice "score."

Nice score! I like when stuff "falls off the back of the truck" hehe

I'm glad that grill didn't get all dented up when it fell off the back of the truck.
