The Costco thread

I saw a Weber grill at Crate & Barrel this evening that was ~600$.
It was basically a piece of shit UFO grill but had some hardware attached to it to make it that price.
My 900$ Traeger that was paid for by Costco Rewards made me laugh at the entire pathetic setup.

Sounds like you don't know how to bbq and don't care about visiting flavor country.
-
Some purists don’t consider electric heat, pellet smoke devices REAL barbecue. Just saying.
I’d probably get a traeger if I had more space, but my $79.00 Weber (Sputnik wasn’t a UFO) grill does some pretty kick ass ribs. It’s just messy and requires a lot of fuckery to get the right heat and smoke. But I’m a pyro at heart and like fucking around with that stuff.

No, I don't (didn't?) know how to barbeque but Traeger's articles, pellets, and rub has been taking me to flavor country, I can assure you.
However I'm not quite gay enough to download their app and set the up the timers on it or anything. Traeger also thinks you should leave shit in the grill for less than half of what it actually should take to cook shit.

It's just how it was presented. I don't really have an issue with getting a typical ~2-300$ grill from wherever, but they try to triple the price because:
1) It's attached to a metal table with a tiny bit of hardware for the pussy apps.
2) It's at a Bellevue Crate and Barrel so it's clearly an upscale grill!

if we’re gonna bash Bellevue Sq Crate and Barrel I’m fucking out!!

I own the Weber in question, but got it at $500 several years ago. It's well worth the premium over the standard Weber. Ignition to get the charcoal going, large prep area, huge storage bin for a full bag of charcoal.
Having had stuff from pellet grills and the Weber, I will take the Weber. Pellet grills are too mild, IMO. If I had the cash and space I'd buy a huge offset.

Bellevue Crate and Barrel guy confirmed!!!

Fucking 5 people walked up to us and asked us if we needed help.
No, no my wife doesn't need your help spending a bunch of my money, thanks.
