Sure, it looks fine on the outside, that's why I thought I'd just replace the worn parts and keep it. However, it seems that this particular model has been obsolete for quite a while and all the parts that I needed are out of stock and will never be manufactured again. To make matters worse, the "universal" parts just aren't universal enough to work on this grill. So, I decide to go grill shopping. My dilemma, however, was whether to get another propane grill or, at long last, the charcoal grill I had been wanting for so long.
Enter the Binford Grill Master 2000:
Well, that's not it's real name. That's just what I call it. If you remember Tim "The Tooltime" Taylor from the sitcom "Home Improvement", he was always souping up something that was a Binford something or other 2000. And this baby is a Tim Taylor worthy grill. As you can tell, it is a propane grill. What isn't necessarily as obvious, however, is the fact that it is also a charcoal grill and smoker. Yes, that's right, the best of both worlds in one easy to use unit. Oh boy, this summer's going to be the best ever. Tomorrow night it is going to be dry rub marinated chicken breasts hickory smoked and cooked over Kingsford premium charcaol. And no charcoal lighter fluid smell on my food either. I got a charcoal chimney starter too. Can't wait to taste those birds. Mmmm Mmmm.
