What are you doing with it? Grilling or smoking?

There's a 67cm weber kettle, and also a ranch kettle. Make sure you're sitting down when you look at the price of the ranch though.

there's a 67cm on eBay right now if you want one...
but 2x 57cms would give you much more flexibility

Yeah, we went down the 2x57 route as well.
Buying a 67 would mean you couldn't move around any accessories you may have.

thanks for all the help, im looking for a large one to leave in situ, so mobility isnt an issue, i will be both grilling and smoking with it in conjunction with my offset. the 57 is what i think is deam tired and emotional, i may have over used it the last 10 years :D

Hi
If you looking for big and leave insitu why not try a fire pit? There are loads about at the minute as they seem to be vogue but you could convert one to suit. salt lick bbq in the us been using a huge one for years. the germans use big ones at their chrimbo markets. so if its big go for it!!
