Title: Weber performer in comps
Post by: AZWildcat on July 26, 2010, 06:38:23 pm

Can you use a weber performer for comps? I know it lights by propane but cooks w/ coals. Any help where the legality is? thx!

As long as it's a gas assist used to light the coals and not cook the meat you'll be fine.

My kid wants to start doing child comps, thought it would be a nice grill to do it on. I could also use it for chicken. Thx!

Draggin' it around is the only drawback I see. And people compete with BGEs, after all. That I wouldn't want to drag around, after watching Karyn R. trying to load theirs!

Dan, don't think it would be a problem. If it were me, I sent an email to either KCBS or IBCA. Which ever group is doing the comp. Then you'll have the definitive answer.
