Before Charbroil was a mass merchant staple the W.C. Bradley Co. in Columbus Ga made the Charbroil grill.

You could find them all around the Deep South for decades. I got my first as a wedding present and cooked literally thousands of pounds of meat on it over the 18 years it lasted uncovered and abused in my back yard.

I thought they quit making them and went without one for 6 or 7 years and then about 3 years ago I see it on Home Depot.com and ordered one immediately. The second one is better than the first. They weigh 190 pounds. I love how I can raise and lower the charcoal and how it has a front door to access the coals. I like the cast iron grates.

I have a Texas Pitcrafters side smoker that has not been fired up since I got my second 940X. I threw away my gas grill. I almost bought a ceramic before I found the 940 again but cooked on it at time or two and really didn't like it as a grill. I smoke on and have kept fires going 14 or 15 hours in it. I grilled steaks on it today and often times smoke chickens and ribs. It holds a bunch of hamburgers.



A little history on W.C.Bradley LINK

If you are shopping for a charcoal grill do yourself a favor and take a look at a 940.

I just got through cleaning it up a little and thought I would pass along how happy I have been with the old standby 940.

Never have.

I just looked around while cleaning up today at my assortment of cooking apparatus I have accumulated and realized it was by far the most used.

This is the one I found buried under my wife's grandfather's carport.
It's a late 70s early 80s model.

Had to clean it up a bit....
