    Pollo asado chicken thighs

    My favorite goto for my fajita/taco style chicken is: Put the contents of entire can in a blender and add 1 cup olive oil and 1/2 cup white vinegar (1/2 cup of olive oil and 1/4 cup white vinegar, for spicy) as well as about 3 or 4 tablespoons of my taco seasoning, or you could use any rub or...

    Disney Q2000 grill day

    I'll tell you what... we used to bring the kids every other year for summer vacation. We would do the full week, on resort, full days at all 4 parks. Great memories and loved all of it. But, you know what MIGHT be even better? Lol. Now that the kids are grown and we live close we have...

    Disney Q2000 grill day

    I am loving the Genesis more than I thought I would. I forgot how great of a grill it is. I've been using it pretty exclusively since I got it to try to get some season on it and it just just a beast of a grill. Didn't expect to like it as much as I am. Lol. This Q2000 surprised me this weekend...

    Disney Q2000 grill day

    So, wife and I are Disneyworld season pass holders and visit QUITE frequently. We have a golf cart and toy hauler camper and stay at the Wilderness Campground on resort. We're here this weekend and so we're decorated for St. Patrick's Day since it's the next holiday. Well, this weekend our...

    No tank scale on new Genesis models?

    I HATE using exchanges. I have multiple tanks so I can run each one to empty and then swap out the reserve tank and get the empty one filled. I also have 2 tanks on my camper. When I need a fill I just look up an Ace hardware nearby that fills tanks. It's been my most reliable way to find a good...

    No tank scale on new Genesis models?

    My E-435 has the weight based tank monitor and in fact has a needle that comes out the front of the door seam so you can see it without opening the cabinet. Not sure if the E-300s have them

    FT-400

    Well, to be fair the Gen 1's of the standalone griddles do have a similar minimalist design. In fact, it's the one of the few "cons" of the units according to the blackstone guys. lol. Although it would have been cool to see them add things like the sliding cover in two pieces that become the...

    Thinking About Espresso

    Well, my opinion is that the amount of money you are looking at for this machine is the right amount to spend if you are still being exploratory. We started with (~$30): Then tried this for a while (~$250) Now, using this (~$800) So, very much like you we wanted to see how deep down...

    Seasoning Gone Wrong

    Oh, and I will do it 4 or 5 times in cycle on a day when I'm home all day. It has made my wife's smithey pans as non stick as a teflon skillet. Also my Lodge stuff.

    Seasoning Gone Wrong

    I would just scrub it the best you can with hot water and dawn and a good scrubber sponge. Then reapply a thin layer of avocado oil but it needs to be way hotter. Smoke point of avocado oil is over 500 degrees. It's what makes it a great oil to season with since even high heat doesn't burn it...

    New Member's Mark

    Wow. That looks like a great unit. Induction side burner is really cool. And, yes that price is crazy. Almost feels like a loss-leader to make a surge into the market.

    Oh boy, this is hard to walk away from. Help!

    Well, got my upgrades done to the Genesis. Handle light 9mm grates came today. These things are heavy and beautiful. I really enjoyed the 7mm on my old Genesis and I already know I'm going to love these. Last, I got a bamboo cutting board to use on the larger work surface. Same one that I...

    Old School bbq roasted chicken halves

    Yeah, when I saw old school I figured it would be slathered with KC Masterpiece sauce while cooked. Lol

    Oh boy, this is hard to walk away from. Help!

    So far feels very similar in build quality to my last Genesis that I got back in 2015. I really enjoyed that grill and when I sold it because I wasn't cooking on it very much I still missed it. We'll see how the new one holds up over time, but so far feels similar to me.

    How hot to finish a brisket

    This is why I never do brisket. It takes so much time and patience to make sure it's done correctly, in my experience. And, the one time I absolutely nailed it, my wife took a bite and said, "Eh, tastes like pot roast to me." 😐 So, the juice isn't worth the squeeze for me. I can heavy hand a...

    Oh boy, this is hard to walk away from. Help!

    Yep. Sending the dimensions of the stand up griddle, the S6, and now the Genesis to our architect so he can build the outdoor kitchen around them. I'm just having him create space for them instead of built-ins because I already know my tendencies about changing grills. Lol. I want to have the...

    Oh boy, this is hard to walk away from. Help!

    2023 model, so that's why the deep discount. The 2024s are coming so they are clearing out the 23s.

    Oh boy, this is hard to walk away from. Help!

    I'm going to tell a story and it's going to sound completely made up and that I'm a stark raving liar. I promise this is 100% true. So, like I said earlier in this thread I went to my local Home Depot here in SE Georgia and they didn't have any Genesis models above the lowest model and not a...

    Oh boy, this is hard to walk away from. Help!

    Makes me sad. lol. I would have snapped that up in a heartbeat and I'm in the same situation of being in a rental until we build our house. I would be asking for forgiveness from the wife, but I would have made it work at that price. I want a large gasser for my new outdoor grilling space and...
