I had a recipe years back (mid '90s) from Food & Wine magazine for grilling pizza. I did it on the kettle with coals on one side of the grill. Their suggestion was to grill one side of the dough first, take it off, top the cooked side (not real heavy on the toppings), then put it back on the...

I will add my 2 cents, but not much more than what's been said. I, too, had a similar decision to make between an EP-330 and an E-420. I went with the E-420, even though more expensive. Among other features I liked the extra space, and it has four burners, although not in a sear...

Got it. Thanks! I'll just keep it clean.

Thanks, all, again for the input. I got to fire it up and cook on it for the first time last night. I've read other posters state what a joy it was to cook on one of these (Genesis and Summit), and now I can relate to their sentiments. All I can say is, wow! I never cooked on a quality gas...

Thanks! I did take a quick look at those. Interesting concept. It looks like having those covering the flavorizer bars might actually extend the life of them. http://www.du-co.com/ceramic-grill-accessories/grill-greats-ceramic-briquettes/

Duly noted. I will certainly keep a more watchful eye on it. Thanks for the tip! As noted, I think the 9mm grates will be fine for me. That was one of the attractive thing about the Summit (although I've heard you can get online somewhere them for the Genesis). I did the leak test and then...

Thanks again all for the responses. Yeah, the "grumblings I heard were a review or two I found out there. But, from forums such as this, no such sentiments, and I trust folks opinions more on dedicated forums where there is a real consensus. Fortunately, the tax man gave back enough to allow...

Jeff, Thanks for the comments. I really like the EP-330, that is what made it such a tough decision. There was just a little something extra pushing me toward the E-420 - can't explain it. I typically cook for four or five (two little ones), but have the larger summer gatherings and a fall...

Don, Thanks for your input! Glad to hear you are happy with your E-420. And, thanks for the pizza stone idea. I will definitely give that a try. TD

I am new to the forum and have been reading threads on which grill to buy - Genesis (E, EP, S) 330 and Summit (E, S) 420. The general consensus is that you can't go wrong between the two. I was hot on the idea of an EP-330, but I finally got to see both grills in person. I was impressed by...
