I have one the kids got me for my birthday last year that I only used once,
without much success. I couldn't keep the charcoal burning long enough to
grill a couple of strip steaks. I meant to do some research to figure out
what I was doing wrong but never got to it. It's just easier to fire up the
gas Weber.
