    Cast Iron Grates For Genesis Silver B 1000

    Does anyone know where I might find some very high quality cast iron grill grates for my Silver B? Not interested in enamel coating. I would like a very heavy, very solid cast iron grate. Thanks.

    Trying to understand lid-up grilling

    I appreciate that. As I mentioned earlier, I know the problem is me, I'm not denying that. I appreciate all the responses thus far. I guess, in a way, I was hoping to find others that were experiencing the same things I was experiencing and that they might have some solutions.

    When I say I've tried everything, I mean EVERYTHING! I've tried every tip and trick in the book. Do you know what does work? No lid.

    Trying to understand lid-up grilling

    Thanks, Jim, for your lengthy reply. I know all this takes time, and I thank you for that. In previous threads it should be clear that I am completely versed in the science and thermodynamics of grilling. Amazing Ribs is a site that I studied over and over during my research. Yes, I understand...

    Trying to understand lid-up grilling

    Funny, I know. Heard it a million times. I guess I should explain why I have a desire to grill burgers with the lid up. In my honest and humble opinion, I think they taste better. I tried for years trying to get my burgers to taste like the magnificent char grilled burgers at my favorite burger...

    Trying to understand lid-up grilling

    Thanks for the replies. Basically, if I'm just grilling 2 burgers on the grill for just the Wife and I, they won't cook with the lid up. Now, if I were to completely cover the grilling surface with burgers, allowing almost no heat to escape, it may work. So many enthusiast say grill with the...

    Trying to understand lid-up grilling

    2 reasons. The best burgers I have ever had were cooked on a grill with no lid. (think restaurant burgers) I prefer my burgers and steaks seared, no baked. Nearly every every griller and backyard enthusiast says you should absolutely grille steaks and burgers with the lid up. My original...

    Trying to understand lid-up grilling

    Many years ago, I bought a brand new Genesis S-310. It was a fine grill except that the darn thing would not get hot with the lid up. This confused me because I hear the same things over and over. "grilling steaks or burgers? lid up, always". Let me be clear. My Genesis cannot cook with the lid...

    Grates for Genesis Gold B

    Hi, everyone. I got a hand-me-down grill from my folks and I'm working on restoring it. I'm searching for the original stainless steel grates. According to Weber the part No. is 65619 but I can't locate these anywhere. When I search for this part No. they all go to part No. 7527 but I have a...

    Is grilling over gas better than charcoal?

    I don't have an answer to that question directly except I'm impartial. I fully understand the raging debate and I'm willing to fall into either camp if I could be convinced. Admittedly, my grilling method at home is on gas. Perhaps I've just not experienced the best that charcoal has to offer...

    Where to find best quality meats

    Stay away from Omaha Steaks, way overpriced. Costco is where the good stuff is.

    Smokey, char-grilled flavor. Why is it missing from my burgers?

    Hello, all. My reply back to this thread has been a long time coming. Many of you that have read through this entire thread know the trials and tribulations I have gone through in trying to create a great burger on my grill. Months, if not years, of banging my head against the wall in total...

    Smokey, char-grilled flavor. Why is it missing from my burgers?

    Thanks, Pinny! I like that term, "flame broiled". I cannot get that flavor with the lid down on my grill, period. My foil experiment made me realize that Grillgrates would be perfect for me. Weber tells me that their gas grills cannot be used with the lid open. Well, we'll just see about that. :)

    Smokey, char-grilled flavor. Why is it missing from my burgers?

    It was quite a while ago, we were all upstairs chatting and his wife was making the patties and sending her friend down stairs with the meat so that he husband could grill them. From the second floor, I stepped out onto the balcony and looked down so that I could see him grilling. I saw a really...

    Smokey, char-grilled flavor. Why is it missing from my burgers?

    Thanks, Dustin. I would say it's mostly about the flavor. Getting a good sear is not a problem but the only way to do that is with the lid down, which robs tons of flavor. You are certainly one of the very few people I've spoken to that just may truly understand my plight. I'm a serious burger...

    Smokey, char-grilled flavor. Why is it missing from my burgers?

    Nate, I'll be ordering mine custom cut, also. I'll be replacing my entire grate with Grillgrates. I'll keep my original grates handy for direct/indirect grilling.
