    Kilts and Weber grills

    Hi all,

    I bought my husband a new Weber grill for Father's Day. Check out the photo that was on the box above the phrase "In America's Backyard Since 1952"! We looked up the Weber grill company and read about its history, and we haven't found anything that explains the "kilted grilling" in this fabulous picture on the box. Anyone have any ideas?

    According to the Weber spokesman I contacted, this is an early picture of LitTrog abusing a chicken with a basting brush (note the wry grin, the plaid passing under his armpit and then wrapped around the bottom of his yarmulke). And that, of course, is Jock Scot in the foreground demonstrating how it is properly done.

    I, too, got a Weber grill for Father's Day! It looks a lot like the ones in the picture.

    I changed my signature. The old one was too ridiculous.

    BTW, is that a flowered apron he's wearing while basting that chicken?

    Which one? The one with foil on the floor or the who-cares-where-the-ashes-go model?
