I was lucky enough to find an ebay listing the other night for an 18.5" grill. It was red in color, and the ad said "so much more than a Smokey Joe" The photo looked identical to a Smokey Joe Gold in size, yet when I asked the seller, they said it was definetily larger than the 14.5" Smokey. It has a wood handle with "EZ" stamped on the vent. Has anyone ever seen a RED jumbo joe? Thanks

Did you get it Jeff? I've been looking for one.
I am only aware of this model from the Weber parts schematic pages. To have found one in red is a find!

Hi Dave,
I did purchase it, but have not received it to this point. I'm thinking it should arrive sometime this upcoming week.

I have a RED Jumbo Joe. It's mint and one of my prized Weber collectibles. I use my RED SS Performer, but haven't fired up the RED Jumbo Joe yet.

Hi Pat...do you have a photo of yours? Does it have wood handles too? Have you ever seen another one of these grills before?

Here's a couple pictures of mine. I've not seen another one like this. My friend from this list Bob Correll spotted this one for me in Missouri and coordinated getting it to me.

thats what the one I won looks like too based on the provided photos. It looks just like a smokey joe to me though, I guess if there was a regular sized smokey next to it, it would be apparent.

Here is a pic that I took of Pat's redhead before shipping it to him:


Congrats on your rare find Jeff!!
Now we know that Weber made at least two of them

i want a red one !! no, make it, i need one, i crave one, i want, i want !!

Jeff,
If you don't get this under control soon, we're going to have to have an intervention.

Jeff, do you actually "GRILL" anything??

I dont think I'll EVER be under control! I do grill actually with some of my grills! I use my 96 Red SS performer as well as the blue OTG and red Mastertouch. None of the Smokeys have ever been used. I just got a brand new Simpsons Smokey recently. Lastly, I have listed in my collection, a new, never used 93 Red SS Performer...Ive been in contact with Stig Peterson from Weber in Europe and am in talks to get 2 grills in exchange for it. I will be updating my Weber family portrait soon. Im think Im done after that...I have no more room for any additions!
