    Yes they cost more money – they are worth it.

    Just bought a new Weber gas grill Saturday – and have been playing around. We shopped for three weeks because I was struggling with paying 700 samolians for a gas flipping grill. Now that I have used it a few times, wow – double frlipping wow is all I can say. My old Charbroil lived a good 10 year life and served me well. But so far, cooking with this Weber is like driving a Mazerati compared to my old broken down Dodge Dart.

    Not beer can but lemon-lime can chicken tonight – put some lime slices under the skin and on the outside. I ought to be arrested for going too fast. Cooked the chiken perfectly at 350 for 1.75 hours. I do still use my old Weber charcoal grill once in a while and quite a bit lately but a gas grill is a must.

    Yeah I have a weber. I swear by them. Sometimes, after winter, you have to use a can of pressurized air to clear the fuel line going to the tank. That;s the only issue I ever had.

    I got so I was doing chicken perfectly (for me).

    Come on, guys…

    Charcoal rules, especially with the weber kettle cooker.

    Year round, first path I shovel.

    I got a problem… My two year old grill metal heating plate suddenly disintegrated into rust dunes of brittle metal ash… I spent 175 dollars on the barbeque pit…Now I got to buy another barbeque pit…I don’t need buzzers, whistles, and manly tongs…I value anti rust and indestructible butane barbeques…Any relatively inexpensive grill suggestions from the peanut gallery?

    If I follow you (and I might not have) I would just go to a local hardware that sells parts for what you originally bought. I had to replace part of the Weber, and I just looked up online to see who locally carried the parts.

    Weber’s kick ass.. I own 4 of them.

    1) the Weber Genesis B, …..my go-to grill…..I’ve had it since about 1998… we BBQ a lot….used it last night to grill halibut…..it still works killer, have only replaced the igniter and flavor bars… . despite hours and hours of grilling, it still has the original porcelain grates.
    2) 22″ Weber charcoal grill, I’ve had it since 1996….. I use only Kingsford briquets with NO Lighter fuel… strictly lit with a coal chimney starter using newspaper. (I’ve found that lighter fuel gives me migraines) Every Thanksgiving or Christmas turkey that I’ve cooked since 1997 has been grilled on this baby……I want to replace this grill soon only because I want a newer model with the “one touch cleaning” thing on the bottom of the grill.
    3) The Go Anywhere Gas grill, this little baby is very underrated.. great little grill that I use for camping or small cook outs
    4) the little Smokey Joe… I rarely us this thing, primarily used by the kids for ‘smores or when I need additional grill space.

    BTW, Every Labor Day and Memorial Day weekend, Home Depot has a killer price on BBQ charcoal….. 2 20lbs Kingsford bags for 11.99 for you charcoal guys, make sure you stock up for winter this Labor Day…

    Been using my new Weber Genesis almost every night the past 10 days – should have bought it last year but I limped the old Charbroil along for anotber year. If one is a griller, life is too short not to have the weber gas grill. It’s cooking par-excellance. No other gas grill will ever measure up after using this one.

    I also have a Weber Charcoal Performer model bought about 96 as well – it was the first year those came out with the table and wheels attached to the pot. We use it a lot and for special occasions. I have used 3 – 15 lb bags of charcoal this year because the old one was dying. We use a chimney starter as well. I used to live for grilling on the bbq – went decades cooking almost every night.
