    Genesis 1000 Porcelain Drip Tray

    I will stand by what I said above. Mark, I think the reality of this non-OEM replacement part is probably somewhere between your highly impressed reaction to the first one and this disappointment on the second. This may well be as good as we can hope for. Maybe if they get returns for blemished...

    Genesis 1000 Porcelain Drip Tray

    Mark, I will admit that the second shipment was disappointing. On the other hand, this company is the first one I know of to at least attempt to fill this void. It is only going to get harder and harder to salvage originals. I am glad I have a stack of them, but none are in superb shape, and...

    Don't forget the Genius grills! :smilekettle:

    Ninja 5-in-1 for the win

    I am having to accept that reality myself. I don't really like the idea of the grill deciding and controlling my burners, but for most people that is probably a relief and maybe even a way to prevent screwups :LOL: . What I LOVE about this new Ninja is that convection fan/pellet combo. That has...

    Competition in gas grilling keeps heating up!

    We have seen some very interesting new things coming online lately. Ninja Flex Fire and Weber's new and definitely improved Spirit line are good examples. I have never been a Charbroil fan, but this one at least LOOKS classy...

    Curb Alert !!!

    The Bullseye Deluxe can hit extraordinarily high temps and has WiFi. On the other hand, the "stainless" is prone to rust and there is no grease management. Recteq is just counting on most of the grease to be incinerated. Give Pit Boss credit for including grease management with a drip tray and...

    Free Red Head Curb Alert!

    It also looks to have the very first Weber UNCOATED cast iron. Thick and heavy, they are sometimes survivors. Do the grates have this on the bottom?

    Nothing wrong with sirloin; it is my wife's favorite. I have gotten some excellent sirloins at Sam's that rival NY/KC strip steaks.

    Two of my favorites! It's what makes the world go round :smilekettle: I do like filet mignon a lot, too, as long as it has been well-seasoned. Too bland to me otherwise.

    Hello! Hoping the experts in this group can help me to choose a high-quality, long lasting workhorse

    Welcome, Hannah! My money is on the Skyline. It is in the center of your built-to-last priority and is a uncommon, cool piece of Weber history!

    About five minutes...I was just curious. Back to taxes, but here is a more "middle of the road" step up from basic tools: https://www.bbqguys.com/i/3099827/bbq-dragon/3-piece-luxury-stainless-steel-rosewood-tool-set-bbqd390#reviews I have always been happy with my Weber Precision set. These...

    Looks that way to me. Mine was pretty worn on the handle, so I sanded, stained and coated with spar urethane. I used gloss because I really like it so much that I wanted it to be safe to occasionally use. Now I wish I had used satin as I did on the spatula which was in better shape in the first...

    Weber FT 400 gas conversion

    I guess the one thing is that most of the time a Flat Top I would expect is used pretty much wide open. But I agree with Larry that a manifold - or replacing each individual valve - is what is needed if you want to have full range flexibility. I will leave this to @LMichaels to confirm, but I...

    Josh, I definitely love those wood handle ones! I have a spatula and a set of tongs that I restored. I have them on display as I haven't been able to bring myself to use them! I also do like both the stainless set you posted here and the fancier set with the small black trim you posted earlier.

    Josh, Do you really think so? Those are their "Basics" not sure from what year. I have a set of their current "Precision" ones, and I think they are very, very good. Sure, there are some outrageously expensive ones with rosewood handles and better stainless, but for the price I can happily...

    I agree we go off track sometimes, but concerns about safety and buying/selling using online sites is a pertinent topic for grill restorers. I count myself to be blessed in not having anything ever happen to me🙏😇
