    I will just leave this here

    I had a cat that did that with mice. He would eat the head, and give me the rest. He must have liked the taste up top.

    I will just leave this here

    My wife eats beyond burgers sometimes. We offered some to the dog one time and he didn’t even respond to it as food. Completely ignored it.

    Anyone doing Genesis 1000 restoration for-hire near Springfield IL?

    The 1000, 2000 and 3000 grills are my favorite Weber Genesis grills by far. I look forward to your thousand rehab Bruce!

    Weber Genesis 1 untouched!! This is big!!

    Imagine unboxing that grill and pre-restoring it. Put another coat or two of paint on the frame, replace all hardware with stainless, slap a few coats of spar on the wood, high temp coat the cookbox. And THEN use it!

    I hope you don't really feel this way. When I first joined the forum years ago I kind of sort of felt that way a little, but then after I remembered that some people try to type sarcasm, and some people might seem mad, they really aren't. I know for a fact that I have tried to be silly or...

    Weber told they can’t void warranty over non-OEM repairs

    Weber by all accounts will ship replacement parts to non-original owners (like many of us) but will also do things like discontinue Summit cook boxes (like our friend Larry M has experienced). So by and large, I would say that Weber does a fair job of warranteeing, and since they promote their...

    How long do most of you get from a full restoration

    Opinions are like, as Roman Moronie from Johnny Dangerously would say, ice holes. Everybody has one and they all fargin stink. That said, I don’t cover my grill. I may have to repaint more frequently than those who cover, but I prefer the ease of grilling without a dirty cover shennanegan. I’m...

    How long do most of you get from a full restoration

    I first restored my 2000 back in 2015, and since then I have re-done the end caps on the hood and the cook box, recently I redid the wood slats and z bars. I think about two years ago I painted the frame but I want to get back into the frame again and might repaint the cook box and end caps...

    Genesis Silver A 2005 - rust on bottom/side panel

    The inside of the hood can be scraped with a razor scraper and then steel wool, that is how I have cleaned them to a nice new shine on the four or five I've done.

    Green 1998 Genesis 1000 Restoration

    That is definitely a 2000 due to the side table on the right. The 3000 has a side burner there. Nice grill!

    Genesis E320- Crossover tube not sending gas to middle tube quickly

    I wonder what would happen if you tried to move the crossover tube as far forward as you can, then as far back toward you as you can, then try to find the "middle" there has got to be some wiggle room in there, maybe try to find the sweet spot to position that crossover tube? Because it sounds...

    Changed Genesis 330 from NG to LP, but now low flame

    It doesn't make sense, because LP orifices are smaller than NG orifices, and if your valves were for the wrong gas, the same would be true. It takes more NG to produce the same flame output as propane, so there is probably some issue with the gas supply. Liquid propane burns very hot with less...

    2nd Chance for a True Weber Classic: A 1998 1st Generation Summit 450

    What about sanding that rusted area down, POR, then coat it with high heat JB weld? I'm just thinking. I haven't ever used the high heat JB, but the POR stuff is pretty good so far on my z bars :)

    That is great, excellent work! I kind of like the red end cap fasteners.
