    Weber Grills: Why Do You Have What You Have?

    Mine is easy.. I have what I have cause I'm cheap.. I take customers scrap grills and cobble together good ones.. Being a tech has its perks :)

    Does anyone have the Summit Grill Center or Social Center - Wok question

    Fwiw, I am going to service grill center today. I went there to scout the job in Monday and seeing what I have seen, I would never own one of these... Poor design with proximity of doors so close that they hit each other without very careful alignment the left most cabinet won't allow the left...

    Summit 650 (2007?) - asking $575

    As long as there is no rust on the frame and cook box it's a solid deal.. As above poster said, the floor, back panel, and lower side frames where they join are heavily rust prone, as is the cook box in the front where the grates rest and lower sections We just took three junk s620s today from...

    Value of Weber Genesis Special Edition

    As a previous poster mentioned, the special edition or "ep" has the stainless grates and flavorizer bars but with an enamel finish on the hood and doors The price seems to be about the typical going rate, maybe a tad high considering it isn't the 330 with sear station

    New Weber Charcoal Grill 22" with grill cover - $30

    Not the right forum but I just went to look at a "only used three times weber smoker" for 25 bucks that turned out to be a brinkmann under a weber cover... Buyer beware ALWAYS

    How do YOU store your charcoal?

    Haha, a cat isn't a bad idea save for all the residual car chemicals around here... Which is probably a good reason to keep them sealed up anyway

    Greetings from NY!

    I'm waiting for the rain to let up, today wasn't TOO bad... Mostly I'm just waiting for the pollen to go away.. I spent half of today's grill service time sneezing.. Good thing for the boss I don't get paid hourly

    Gas knobs

    It's two years on plastic excluding fading, so technically it wouldn't be covered but it's really a crap shoot with who your rep is and how it's explained.. I would probably avoid using the term "fading" and say something along the lines of degrading or something

    Hello From Seneca Falls, NY

    Greetings! I have not tried the Weber Briquettes yet but I know their OEM is Royal Oak so im not sure what the similarities and differences will be... Of the more "premium" bq's, Stubbs seems to be a crowd favorite and is currently on sale at Lowe's, so if you have one nearby it may be worth a...

    Summit S470 Find

    Great score! I have a similar s470 that I have not yet brought home because it's somewhat buried in the yard at the shop but seems to be complete and all the valves move freely.. I'm looking forward to bringing it back to life and putting it through its paces.. Definitely filthy and has been...

    Kettle grill options

    I was leaning towards a master touch for my mom but it wouldn't have arrived in time so have a regular performer coming Tuesday... Aside from the other features the lid bale is really helpful imo

    How do YOU store your charcoal?

    Unfortunately, I have a mouse problem in the garage so I'm currently using cheap 32 gallon recycling bins from Lowe's that were about 12 bucks a pop.. Each one holds about 5 full bags so not a bad deal

    Greetings from Long Island

    Absolutely, the stockpile keeps growing so don't hesitate to reach out to me... I also get a good discount on most oem parts (mainly the brown box stuff, retail packaged items have lower margin) so if anyone ever needs anything large like a cook box or frame parts I can probably save you a good...

    Anyone else find that Whole Foods has the best meat?

    Last week they had their NY strip on sale for 11.99 a pound, a couple weeks ago skirts were 7.99 and I believe this week the London broil is 4.99 so I will be grabbing some to cook and vacuum seal for tacos and steak sandwiches. There is also a 5 off 25 deal going on at the nearest one so all in...

    S-620 vs S-470 vs Viking... Which one should I keep?

    Honestly, you can almost make a request for something and I will let you know when I have enough parts to build one.. The one caveat would be that I don't have many colors besides black or stainless.. I should have for sure a stainless E/W burner Genesis (NG but can convert to LP and a black N/S...

    S-620 vs S-470 vs Viking... Which one should I keep?

    Haha I will keep you posted Russ, I'm swamped with customers grills so hopefully after MDW I can start bringing some of these back to life in my spare time. The one good thing is that unlike my other hobbies it keeps me home so the Mrs can't complain too too much I currently have the viking, 4...

    Greetings from Long Island

    Last weeks pickups, wife not happy. Now hopefully I can fix them and get a few more people grilling this weekend although the work schedule this week may not allow for it... Rain almost every day and already 11 services lined up, mostly on summits which are infinitely more time consuming

    Anyone else find that Whole Foods has the best meat?

    Have been to nearly every butcher, market etc within a 30 mile radius and for some reason, I can't find anything that compares to the quality of the meat there. There may be an occasional mediocre item but in general their stuff is just so consistently good My wife won't eat beef from anywhere...

    S-620 vs S-470 vs Viking... Which one should I keep?

    Greetings, As a grill technician with hoarding instincts, I'm often faced with problems.. Number one would be annoying my wife (as I did when I came home with 4 300 series Genesis last week and put them in the driveway) and number 2 would be knowing that in 4-5 months I am moving to a smaller...
