Weber Inc.

In the, in the next two years, I, I want to develop a...

I, I speak about this a lot and, and I'm not trying to, but, um, Weber Grills is the epi- in my mind, the epitome of what a backyard barbecue brand looks like, right?

Mm-hmm.

When I think of a, when, when someone says the term Weber to me, I immediately think of the smells.

Got it.

Western grills, you know, you can start with a Weber Kettle, which is 22 and a half inches wide, and then, um, grills go up to stainless grills, stainless steel Super Grills, big Kamado grills, and they're really suited for a wide variety of foods, not just, uh, not just small kebabs.

Okay.

Very good.

But then what happens, and this is always the biggest mistake, you know, in finance, and I'm sure, Squirrel, you know this, and you probably even issued some paper that were on some assumptions that were like, "We're gonna issue you paper when everything's good." When the narrative's good.

When it's, you know, like Weber Grill or whoever it was doing a, a grill IPO in 2020 at some 15 times EBITDA.

It was like, "Well, everyone's staying at home and grilling.

That is the perfect time to sell, you know, charcoal grill IPO paper," right?

What should I go with?" And I was just gonna go with, Jackson, what does your father love?

Weber Kettle.

The Weber Kettle.

I grew up on the Weber Kettle, too, Iggy.

I love the charcoal, but it's a, it's a, it's a hassle.

It, it is, but I do...

Does he?

Um, I'm, I'm...

And now that we have moved here permanently, we have even more to mention.

Like the fact that I found a Weber grill-

[laughs]

...

I needed an app.

All right.

You know what, Tommaso? We're here to talk about the Dolomiti, and you were on this massive tangent about your Weber grill.

In the Dolomiti.

For what our great ancestors probably lacked in table manners, we haven't changed their cooking process all too much since then.

The iconic Weber Kettle Grill brought it to the backyard in 1952, and the gas grill followed shortly after.

But purists might flinch a bit at barbecue cooked with charcoal briquettes, never mind propane, and don't even mention the Crockpot.

You've been listening to Struttin' with Some Barbecue, a 1949 Columbia record by Jimmy Dorsey and the original Dorsey Land jazz band.

... uh, 'cause I'm, I wanna start being my, I'm getting my grilling era this fall.

I got my Weber Grill built up nice in a nice spot for it for the first time since moving in the new spot.

Mm.

And you should buy those black grilling gloves I see guys cut steak with.

It's like, "Really?" [laughs]

God, I had a fall like that when...

And not to mention Weber grills too many times.

[laughs]

But I will say the one where I feel like maybe the gas grill wasn't the best method to do this on was the one flip versus the lots of flips because I preferred the one flip because it gave it more char.

But I feel like if you only did one flip on, like, a Weber Kettle, you're, it, it's not gonna turn out good.

You wanna do lots of flips on the Weber Kettle.

But I feel like on the gas grill, the lots of flips, I don't really feel like it was on there enough-

Mm-hmm

Yeah

... fricking Weber Kettle have great barbecue.

Yeah.

I'll out, I'll out, I'll outcook 95% of the people out there with a garbage can.

We've talked about it 100 times.

Yeah.

You can get a Weber Kettle off Marketplace for $25-

Yeah
