GENESIS EP-320 GREEN LP Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)After crawling out of the cave, my wife and I were finally in a position to buy a nice grill (we've had lots of them over the last half-century). After reading lots of reviews, we chose this one. Now, for the first time, I know what a Grill is. At this point we cook as many as 3 meals a day on it. Moments ago had breakfast by putting cast iron cooking grill on the Weber and cooked sunny-side-up eggs. Toasted some bread on the upper rack at the same time. The eggs were perfectly cooked, something I attribute to the heat of the grill - which appears to be orders of magentude higher than our electric stove top (gas is not available where we live). We've cooked salmon on planks, steaks (more on this below) and the requisite hot dogs and hamburgers. Everything is cooked to perfection by the high, well-regulated heat and the containment of that heat by the lid - which is massive and surprisingly heavy.

Weber has clearly designed this item to be around for a long time. The components are extremely well made, and there is no rattle, roll or vibration. The cooking grates are very heavy, but heat up quickly and do a superb job of searing. Our steaks now always have perfect diamond shaped grill marks and are nicely carbonized on the outside, but rare to
medium rare on the inside - just as we like them. Chicken, unlike every cheap grill I've used, comes out tender and moist on the inside (use medium heat). In the past grilled chicken was always tough and burnt on the outside and not done in the middle. Not good eats and probably not even safe.

The removeable bottom pan is brilliant - though admittedly quite hard to get showroom clean after 100's of grilling sessions. We're going to try a pressure washer on it soon. The drip pan system is another one of those "why doesn't everyone do it this way" systems. My one - and only one - criticism is that the Weber aluminum liners develop pin-holes really quickly and so you also have to clean the support pan. Fortunately that is a breeze.

Even the side burner is a wonder in my opinion. I've used it it 20 mile/hour winds (we live on a mountain - that's pretty common) and it has never blown out. The heat is even and well delivered. A particular favorite is to grill up some onions with salt/pepper/butter/olive oil/garlic in a pan while making an appropriate meat dish to put them over.

I rarely find products that are so well engineered and functional. If you've never cooked on a *real* grill that gets *hot,* this will be a revelation to you. If you used Weber grills in the past, I'm guessing you'll just be shaking your head in agreement. Bravo! If I could give it 6 stars I would.

Fuego EG02AMG Element 21-Inch Dual-Zone Gas Grill, Dark Gray Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)after careful research, we had been hoping to order this grill at a retail store but that did not happen so we were happy ordering from amazon. it came within a few days & we promptly set it up without much difficulty on our very small deck. the design is genius, perfect for our limited outdoor space. the major problem was that we could not get it to light. there was a full tank of gas, we called then emailed element but never got it to work. it sat outside, uncovered, for about a week & proceeded to rust around the perimeter of the cover after a rain storm! to say that we were disappointed is an understatement. a major design flaw is the gas tank cover has to be pulled off whenever the tank has to be turned on - they should have hinges & an ergonomic handle to open the cover for easy access to the gas source.
we carefully repackaged the grill - always save the box! - & thankfully received a full refund for this disappointing product. now it's back to our tired old weber until we find something small & fabulous that actually works!!

Product Description:
Combining innovative form with versatile function, this 21-inch gas grill not only adds a vision of modern art to any back deck or patio, but it also cooks up great-tasting food--no charcoal required. The unit features a 24,000-BTU dual-zone burner with two elements: the outer ring (zone 1) provides indirect heat while the inner ring (zone 2) works best for standard grilling. Use zone 1 for indirect heat to bake, barbecue, and roast, or close the roasting lid to utilize zone 2 to smoke or to generate convection heat. Electronic ignition with a single control knob ensures complete control over the temperature and both burners. The unit also provides a swing-out wood prep tray tucked under the cast-iron grill top for setting a glass of red wine; stainless-steel handles for hanging tools and towels; and propane storage underneath with a removable front panel to keep the tank out of sight, but within easy reach. Other highlights include stainless-steel burner tubes, a grate made of cast iron for maximum heat conduction, a temperature gauge on the lid, adjustable vents, a powder-coated steel burner bowl and body with a molded plastic base, and smooth-rolling ABS casters with rubber tread and locks. Optional accessories (sold separately) include a 20-inch pizza-baking stone that fits directly into the grill and a cast-iron griddle flat plate for searing and grilling peppers and onions or shrimp in the shell.

Char Broil Heatwave Infrared Three-Burner Gas Grill, with Sideburner Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have a built in outside grill called fire magic that resently cost me close to 500.00 to fix and bring back up to new condition. The problem is that the juices from the meats go past the flavor gates down to the burnners that can cause a plug up. I purchased the Charbroil Heatwave because it caputures the jucies in the bowls that are underneath the porclein cooking crates so no jucies will hit the burner. Great product, and as a bounus the foods cooked on this grill tastes better that the $ 2200.00 fire magic grill. It's a no brainer purchase.Buy it!!!

The Char Broil Heatwave Infared cooking system is yet another breakthrough from the grilling minds at Char Broil.The Heatwave system works using two troughs to transfer the radiant heat from the buners to infard heat that cooks your food.The design is a unique, patented system, that provides 100% infared heat.You can use wood chips in the troughs to indirectly cook food or just add smokey flavor and because of the design you don't get flare up and charring.Once again, the infared technology is highly efficient and allows just 3 burners and 35,400 BTUs to provide all of the energy you need with this grill and its 550 sq. in. primary cooking area.A cooking guide is included on the side shelf of the grill to help fully utilize this ground breaking technology and as expected the other shelf features a flush mount sideburner.The Heatwave grill also included integrated electronic ignition, a pull out tank tray, and Char Broil's patented Dual Fuel system for easy conversion to Natural Gas.The cart has a closed look with metallic porcelain top and matching doors.As with all grills, we recommend keeping the firebox clean to help avoid flare up as well as using a grill cover to protect your invesent.

Char Broil Magnum 500 Quantum Infrared Three-Burner Gas Grill, with Sideburner Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have always been a wood fire BBQ kind of guy - I like meat cooked over a *real* flame, and even charcoal has always seemed to me like cheating (though I've been using a charcoal Weber kettle for 20 years).I never even considered a gas grill for myself for these reasons.

For my senior Mom & Dad, however, the task of lighting charcoal, etc was too much hassle, so this past weekend I went out shopping for a gas grill for them. After going back and forth between three different home centers and Costco, I settled on this unit as by far the best "bang for the buck" in terms of build quality, performance characteristics, and ease of use for under $500.I seriously considered going up to the Weber Genesis, but for 50% more, I just couldn't quite justify it. My requirement was good quality for under $500.

After about a one-hour erector set project putting it all together (not difficult, just time consuming), I fired it up and let it burn off for about 20 minutes. I was immediately impressed with how hot the cooking surfaces became (and how quickly). The nifty temp sensors at the grate level registered 700+ degrees!

After burn-off, I tried it out with what I have found to be one of the trickiest things to grill over open flame (gas or wood/charcoal): raw marinated chicken parts. To be done right, the chicken has to be crispy on the outside - not burned, and moist and completely cooked on the inside.With unevenly shaped and sized chicken parts, this can be devilishly tricky.

But with this grill, I found I was able to keep the left most burner at full throttle, and the two right burners at low settings and get creative.This allowed me to beautifully sear the skin using the left side of the grill, then finish cooking on the right side (with the BBQ closed).The results were amazing.

One of my favorite things about this grill turned out to be that it is really easy to add wood chips for smoke flavor.Because there is a perforated metal "screen" (the infrared reflector) under the food, it catches the wood chips and holds them at a perfect smoking temperature where they will smolder but not flare up.

Speaking of flare-ups, this grill did NOT exhibit flare-ups at all.Even with fatty pieces of chicken that had been marinated in an olive oil mixture, there was almost no burning or smoking, even on the "searing" side of the hot grill.

When turned down low, I also found the evenness of the heating surface to be impressively consistent, and the large stainless "grill" surface not only made great marks on the food, but also did not stick as badly as most coated steel or iron grill surfaces do.

On the con side, I can imagine that the perforated screen is going to require some periodic maintenance to keep it clean.The good news is that it comes out in three easy-to-handle sections shaped like little trays, each holding a section of grill.You pull the "tray" up and out, then lift the grill surface out of the tray making both very easy to clean.

One final note - I also prepared a boneless leg of lamb on the grill using a "generic" rotisserie (Grill-Pro brand).it *barely* fit between the closed lid and the grill surface, but again, the infrared cooking system worked beautifully. I warmed it up at full throttle for about 5-10 minutes before mounting the marinated lamb roast, then allowed it to sear beautifully for about 15 minutes. Then I turned the burners all down to their lowest settings, threw on a thumb-sized stick of oak from one of our trees, and dropped the lid.

An hour and a half later, we enjoyed one of the best lamb roasts I have ever had!

Highly recommended, especially if you can get it for the price I paid (which was about $[...] less than Amazon's currently listed price)

Pros:
*Great heat output for searing
*Even distribution of heat for predictable results
*Good low-temp performance
*Easy to use wood chips for flavor
*Good build quality in the hood and firebox

Cons:
*Bottom 1/2 of construction is a bit flimsy, but better than many at this price point
*Requires pre-heating for about 10 minutes for best results
*Periodic clean-up probably required for optimum performance

Weber 3742001 Genesis E-310 Propane Grill, Copper Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Summary -- a great grill with even cooking across the grill, gets hot (over 600 deg F), with a bit of clunky charm and plenty of accessories.

OK -- I've had a very expensive grill (>$2k) for the past 5 years, and traded it for furniture when I moved. After researching grills, the great unwashed mass and periodicals indicated that Weber Grills had even temperatures across the grill. That was important because my former grill was hot, hot, hot but very uneven in temps across the grill. My only concern with the Weber was, "Is it hot enough?"

Quick Answer -- yes -- it climbed to 550 F fairly quickly and was still climbing. That was important because I want to grill Pizza.

Assembly - I hope you have your own hex set because the one supplied takes time. An auto screwdriver is a helpful addition. This is a 2 person bonding experience for assembly, at least for me, as I'm easily bored. The directions (pictures) are not bad but doesn't anyone write a manual using words inour native tongue? Assembly may take 1.5 hr +/-depending on your do it yourself talents.

First time use was steaks -- the grill is hot! and sears well -- they turned out perfectly - medium rare; Second time was chicken; next was scallops. They all turned out delicious and the grill is a snap to use.

I recommend the grill cover and adding the smokers kit if you want to slow cook ribs, chicken, etc. I laid a smoke box on the Weber twice and the grill produced fine smoke. I think the Weber kit will smoke the chips faster and hotter since it lays on the flavor grates.

The cons?OK -- it is clunky looking compared to my uber-expensive grill. But then, it was $649 (LP Version) and cooks better than Mr. Uber-Expensive.

Overall, I am very satisfied with this grill and highly recommend it.

Weber 3741001 Genesis E-310 Propane Gas Grill, Black Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)There's really nothing more that can be said to further the reputation of this series of grills.Those of us that own the Genesis E-310 series grill know how well this grill is manufactured, and just how very well it performs its duties.It is, by far, the very best gas grill in this price range I have ever owned or used.A couple of notes:
-The cross-over ignition system works wonderfully (it takes less than 3 seconds to fire up all three burners
-Those who say that their gas grill does not get hot enough to sear meats don't own this grill- I've had it up to 550 degrees on a very cold MN winter day
-That said, it seems to go through a good amount of propane when running all 3 burners on high...but that is probably obvious considering the temps you can obtain when running it on full.(It will be interesting to see if I can get 500 + degrees to sear meats on medium setting on a summer day....).The fuel gauge inside the cabinet is also a handy feature
-As always with this series of grills- No Flare ups, and the flavorizer bars do what Weber says they will, namely vaporize fats and juices into smoke that adds flavor to what you are grilling
-To keep this review balanced, there is one negative- I dislike the tool holders.Although there are plenty, your tools pretty much have to have one of those leather hanging loop things to keep the tools from falling off or even to use the holders (a small price to pay I guess)

Finally, the Genesis E-310 I purchased came in a copper color, something I haven't seen on Amazon, or on Weber's site for that matter.Maybe I missed it, or maybe I got lucky.Either way, it looks pretty darn sharp on our deck when it isn't covered.

Product Description:
No more annual overhauls, Weber's Genesis grill is built for high-performance grilling for years to come. The Genesis E-310 gas grill features an enclosed cart with stainless steel doors and handles for easy, scratch-free cleaning. A stainless steel shroud with a center-mounted thermometer is bordered with shiny, cast-aluminum end caps.
The cooking system, rated at 42,000 Btu's, includes 3 seamless stainless steel burners. For easy starts, an electronic Crossover ignition system lights all three burners in succession with the push of a button. Weber's porcelain-enameled Flavorizer bars eliminate grease-fueled flare-ups that often occur with standard lava rocks and ceramic briquettes. Fats and juices are vaporized when they hit the angled bars and quickly sizzle away, adding delicious, smoky barbecue flavor rather than cauterizing flames. Sturdy cooking grates feature 7-millimeter stainless steel rods. The primary cooking area measures 507 square inches. And, the unit's handy warming rack measures 130 square inches for a total cooking area of 637 square inches.
Other features include 6 tool holders, a precision fuel gauge, 2 stainless steel work surfaces, 2 heavy-duty front locking casters and 2 heavy-duty back swivel casters. The purchase includes a cookbook and 10-foot flexible hose, and is covered by a limited manufacturer warranty.

Char Broil Magnum 340 Quantum Infrared Two-Burner Gas Grill Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Pros: Very well designed and manufactured~ Good fit and finish~ Sturdy, solid grill~ The infrared is a completely unique cooking technique that works and works well~ The top, front door, grates, burners and infrared emmiters and hardware are all stainless steel~ Seems to use less propane than conventional gas grill~ Temp gauges seem to be accurate and solid~ Allows you to burn woodchips or natural wood charcoal directly on the grates its amazing and soo easy to do!!~ The best grill I have ever owned....or used for that matter!!~ If your in the market for a $300 grill, buy this thing!

Cons: Not too sure about the Surefire start system as of yet. The button has to be pushed just right but once it is... click click boom its lit!~ Ikea has nothing on Char-Broil in the "Uhhh I have to put ALL OF THIS together?" catagory~ If your not a handy person with a good set of basic tools, you better hope your friend or neighbor is!~ I am a handy person and this was a pretty long build to do by my self(3+ Hours). I don't know if this is really such a con, but for some it may be so i figured I would mention it. One reason it takes so long is because it is a well built grill with a lot of heavy duty hardware and support brackets ~ LOTS OF PARTS TO ASSEMBLE!
