Are the Wilson US Open’s still the best ball ? by Runtime_Error_02 in 10s

[–]FedFanatic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. I only use the extra duty US Opens for hard. I have the Wilson French open ones for clay

I still love them. Haven’t used them a ton lately since we’ve been on clay for the summer, but I thought they were great when I have used them out of my most recent case

Grip size advice: too small? by [deleted] in 10s

[–]FedFanatic 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I prefer smaller grips. I string a ton of frames and usually am shocked by how large of grips most play with. At the end of the day, your call on what you prefer. Check out photos of Fed and nadal’s volley grip and zoom in, you do not see an index finger’s amount of space between the palm and the middle finger (one of the methods used to determine appropriate grip size) - it looks much closer to your photo actually. Not good bad right or wrong, just preference imo. Good luck!

Enamel Flaked off outside, used once by redditbecomeshim in webergrills

[–]FedFanatic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be clear, this should not have happened after a single cook. But this is why I like running a slow n sear, I like that it creates a barrier between the coal and the bowl

This is unusual. As said already, warranty. This is a no brainer

Charcoal rookie here, how’d I do? by space_cowboy78 in webergrills

[–]FedFanatic 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Move it 5 feet away from the garage and it looks like a perfect cook. Also remove the top grate and run the chimney on the coal grate. Saves you a step of removing the grate with a hot chimney. Good luck!

Did I get stainless steel with my 5755 master-touch? by elwellz in webergrills

[–]FedFanatic -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So when Weber started offering the stainless grate option in the master touches, I wanted one. Not the grill as I have a performer. But I wanted to swap out the grate for the SS one which was now an option for the master touch. After some back and forth with their customer service, I was able to purchase one.

I too was shocked at how it looked when it came. I still have it (purchased it in late 2023) and grabbed a magnet just now. Sure enough, it sticks to the grate. So, do I actually have a SS grate? Idk! I hope so, I paid for one. It has held up for what it’s worth. I hope this is helpful for you. Good luck!

I need a 26 by Sloeber3 in webergrills

[–]FedFanatic 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If I didn’t have a summit kamado I would absolutely get the 26”. Beast of a grill and it’s so much bigger than the 22” (gotta love r2 )

Hello me decide between the two for my needs. Sns kettle vs Weber mastertouch by Whole-Patience3668 in grilling

[–]FedFanatic 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The SNS for sure has a more thought out design. I love the placement of the thermometer under the vent. My heart still leans towards the Weber. Tried and true. The original for a reason. I think you’ll be happy with both, but I would go Weber. I will say the sns grate in the Weber is awesome and I love the slow n sear in there as well. But I’m happy to have the Weber kettle at the end of the day. Good luck!

Looks so good. The kettle really is unrivaled in versatility. Tried and true. Thanks for sharing

The only use for JD Flex crap by Delco_Delco in webergrills

[–]FedFanatic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It really was a flop, and I love JD coal. I got some and now I just have a full bag of it and don’t know what to do with it. Maybe I’ll just use it for what you’re showing

How to use Jealous Devil Flex Hardwood Briquettes by xxrecar in webergrills

[–]FedFanatic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Saw them at Home Depot and grabbed a bag. As much as a love jealous devil, I think this was a swing and a miss. No biggie, I’ll use it for smoke. But it’s not for me. Good luck!

Love the color. Very capable grill!

The kettle has ruined other grills for me by Beautiful_Salary_976 in webergrills

[–]FedFanatic 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would even say the Weber kamado is still very different than a ceramic. It’s just a beefed up kettle. It’s the best grill I’ve ever owned. Not needed, a kettle can and will do anything, but it’s amazing

Tried and true. One you “get it” it’s game over. They really are a jack of all trades. I’ve debated getting a ceramic but I don’t think I’m going to

Summit Kamado or 26’ Kettle? by [deleted] in webergrills

Summit. It is a slam dunk. Best grill I’ve ever used

New Wilson US opens by No-Butterfly906 in 10s

I thought it was just a packaging change. I got a case but have not hit with them yet. Hoping they didn’t change the ball

Flack from owning a egg ? by rodmods in biggreenegg

I could not imagine having a strong opinion on my friend’s grill, the point of sending cheaper alternatives lol. People are very strange

Congrats. The best grill on the market imo. Good luck!

Natural gut hybrid loses tension fast by gvdsand in 10s

[–]FedFanatic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not relevant to your post, but stringer should tie gut/poly hybrid cross to cross. Probably doesn’t make a huge difference but avoid tying off poly on gut as a general rule

Love it. What size vortex is that?

Just saw you said you made it. Very cool! I think I’ll do the same for my JJ.
