I've been browsing the forums picking up what I can about the gas grills since I just picked up my first gas Weber (threw away my last gasser..... probably a low-end Kenmore sometime around 2006).
I've been shopping Weber gassers for the last few years and always thought I'd buy at Home Depot so it'd come with the cast iron grates, but then I read on The Virtual Weber Gas Grill that the cast iron grates should be removed before burnoff or their seasoning would be ruined.
I'm a bit lazy, and..... ahem,,,, forgetful, and I can see myself letting the grill crank on high while warming up for longer than I should.
The grates mine came with are I believe porcelain-covered cast iron, they appear to be in perfect shape (about the only thing the grill I can really say that about), but still I wonder.
So the options I see are:
- Porcelain covered steel
- Enameled cast iron
- Stainless (from rcplanebuyer) which also seems to be standard on a lot of the new Genesis
and
- Bare cast iron
- Grill Grates
Preferences?
