    Why shorter turkey cooks instead of low and slow?

    I can't wait to do a turkey for the first time this year. Will probably do a practice run before Thanksgiving. I'm wondering why the turkey recipes I see are all in the 2-3 hour range instead of the typical 8-12 hours for other food (like the delicious pork butt I did yesterday). Curious to hear...

    Something VERY strange going on with my Weber grill. Doubt you've seen this before. Advice please!!

    Not sure how this happened or if it is safe. This happened to a spare Spirit E-210 cart somehow. No longer heats up, but I keep returning to it. Do you think it's safe to consume from this cart? I tried last night but am having trouble remembering the results...

    Solutions to fix very small hole in burner box?

    I have an older Genesis that is in great condition with the exception of a small hole in the burner box. It doesn't look like any other parts of the burner box will give out. It's a little smaller than an eraser head. Is there anything I could "fill" it with that would be non-toxic to food?

    WANTED: GENESIS SILVER A Lid. 91520/Lid assembly, Spirit 200

    I have a 2002 Genesis Silver A. The frame and everything is immaculate, but the lid is beat up and dented. It looks like the 2002/3 Genesis Silver A uses the Spirit 200 lid - it is slightly smaller than the normal Genesis lid. I'm in central Iowa. Willing to drive a little ways. Let me know if...

    Gas leak where propane hose meets frame. How bad is there/is there a fix?

    Here's another curbside freebie I got. I was fixing this up for my sister and brother in law but ran into a big issue. Where the propane hose meets the frame, propane leaks out. Probably a stupid idea but I held a lighter to this area and it did light up. It looks like the hose enters the...

    Weber Smokey Mountain 18 Grates/Water Pan questions

    I've wanted a WSM forever and found a WSM 18 on the side of the road during our local "junk day". It's in great condition - I haven't found a serial number yet. The grates seem to be pretty bad and rusted. A couple of grates questions...I'll use this photo as a guide. 1. Top grate - I'm...

    Any idea what might cause the burners to flash on then off? Video inside.

    2017 Genesis II. New to me. The propane tank is good. Please forgive the off-kilter burner tube to the far left. I had been adjusting it but the problem persists no matter how it's situated. The problem is the same for all burners - they get a spark and gas but turn off the second I let off the...

    FYI: The Piezo igniters for the old, 90's Webers fits perfectly on my Q320. Much better starter and 1/3 the price.

    I've been working on a Q320. The battery igniter did not work, even after a lot of tinkering. I decided to try a Piezo starter from Amazon (this one https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07MYCC8C3/?tag=tvwb-20 ) from a suggestion I saw deep in this forum. Maybe this is common knowledge, but it...

    My 1997 Genesis 1000 Restoration.

    My dad had a boxy red Weber when I was a kid. He still has it. Through my desire to find "buy it for life" items for our home that I can care for, and that will take care of me, I found that the older Webers are as good as it gets. I started with a Green 1999 Spirit that I thought I would...

    Is Weber Covering Burn Through?

    On the warranty, it looks like Weber does NOT cover burn through, but I'm not 100% sure on the verbiage. I found a 2012 Spirit E210 on the side of the road today (third spirit E210 I've found this month..."junk day" in my state) that is in great condition except for this bad burn through...

    Would a Weber 7519 Rotisserie fit on a 1997 Genesis 1000?

    My wife and I are excited to host our first Thanksgiving at our first home. I locally found a Weber 7519 Rotisserie which is for a newer Genesis "300 Series". I'm curious what's to stop this from fitting on a 1997 Genesis 1000? At $50 I'm willing to be a little creative for the fit. So many...

    Rehabbing a Q1200. Handle spacers, cotter pin size.

    Working on a new-to-me Q1200. The previous owner replaced the cotter pins that hold the lid in place with nuts and bolts. Does anyone know what size a replacement cotter pin is? Also, there is typically a spacer between the grill lid and the handle. The previous owner used washers. Any ideas...

    Does anyone know where I can find these threaded screw/brackets that hold the front screen on a 2014 Spirit E-210?

    I recently picked up this Spirit E-210 for free during my cities "junk day". I was elated! It is missing several of these - sorry not sure what to call them - "brackets" that hold the front screen in place. Does anyone know where they can be purchased, or if not possible, a solution? Thank you...

    95 Genesis 1000 - New Igniter kit - not "reseting" after first click

    Installed the new igniter kit. Every time I push the button it works then resets to be pushed again. However, once the grill is put back together and I use the switch to hit the igniter, it only works once, then I get a "mushy" button and nothing happens. I've adjusted the nut to various...

    Propane Fuel Level Sticker - Where to Find??

    I am currently conducting a full tear-down rehab of a (new to me) 1997 Genesis 1000 LP Blk. The sticker that indicates empty-full is looking a bit tired, cracked, etc. I am having a bit of trouble find a replacement stick online or anything to take it's place. Does anyone have any advice on...
