What grill does he use?

Does anyone know what type of gas grill he uses? A specific brand and/or model?

I don't know how accurate this post is, but I found this, although it applies to charcoal grill.

Quote:
In terms of looks, it probably has a regular Weber kettle charcoal beat. In terms of performance, I'd only be venturing a guess because I don't have the W-S grill, but I'd put my vote on the Weber kettle. I've used one for years and there's a reason they have sold so many and done so much business. It's simple, but it works. Keep in mind you WILL be paying a few bucks more simply because you're buying from a name brand like Williams-Sonoma. If you're looking to take a step up in the Weber department, go for the Performer. It has a propane assist ignition and has a nice, usable table to boot. Buy it on Amazon and you've got one for $300 and free shipping. Black, blue, or green. Spend the extra $200 on some accessories (rotisserie, grill cover, good quality charcoal, etc) and I think you'll be happier in the long run. In the event anything does go wrong with any of the components, you can easily find some replacements at Home Depot or Lowe's. So to sum it up, if it were me, I'd buy the Weber Performer. Bobby Flay probably agrees, it's the charcoal grill he uses on his show.

I think the gas grill is a Viking. He even has a page on the Viking website.

Love mine too! Except, it hasn't gotten much use in the last couple of years since this little baby arrived:



(Weber Genesis)

Now, the old kettle just sits on the side of the house, with its cover on. Been thinking about just dragging it into the driveway and putting a FREE! sign on it. :ura1:

In fact, today we did up a rack of Baby Backs (the Best BBQ Ribs Ever recipe), two whole chick-in-parts, sweet yams, baked potato's and cob corns.

We use to have one like that and I gave it up to go back to the Kettle.

The flavor of gas grilling was too much like indoor cooking. Wanted that charcoal flavoring.

Honestly, I think I only grilled outside once last year.

I sometimes put a little charcoal in the bottom grate of grill on my range.

We have the gas Webber you refer, but I love to use the Weber Kettle and quite frankly everyone is happy when I do. It's just so dang easy to control the smoke and ventilation.

Course in the winter we mostly use the gas, but Spring is here!

I have an offset smoker that I do most my outdoor cooking in.

I'd like to have one of those, I have tasted some good food from them. I have a Bradley Smoker but it has a tendency to over smoke. Maybe the operator?
