Free Red Head $0.00: Weber Genesis 1100 good working condition, ready to use (almost)

[Oak Barrett]

Hi Folks,

Got this beauty for free a few years ago, and its been my daily driver since...
Everything is pretty good condition for its age, minus the wood...

Never did get around to fixing the wood, and the outdoor kitchen has taken a different direction, so its time to part with the Red Head for the same amount I got it for...

Free $0.00

Top/Box: good condition, no big chips, no rust.
Burners: burn nice and even
Knobs: plastic could use some love, but the valves have been greased and operate nicely
Grates: good condition, a little scaling, but a ton of life left
Flavorizers: overall good condition, some scaling here and there, but no rust holes or breakage
Cover: its old and a little stiff, but it comes with it
Ignitor: works

Needs:
- new wood
- propane line (had to donate it to my firepit
- missing one of the tool hooks


Toss a gas line on it, and its ready to use..


I am located on the San Francisco Peninsula, let em know if you are interested.

You might want to consider hanging on to it. With very little money time and effort this could be a very nice barbecue and most likely Outlast any new grill by many years.

 

[Steve Hoch]

I would be happy to take it off your hands if I were close to you, nice looking grill.

Oak is in my Wednesday golf group! .....and he knows too well what kind of trouble I'd be in if I came home with another grill!

You guys play at Elks next to the house?
Nice course, I should play more.
I’m tempted on that red head for sure.

 

[Bruno]

I’d like to give that a go , Oak what’s your schedule look like this weekend? Are you around Saturday?

Yep, the Elks course. They run a Closest to the Pin tournament from April to October on Wednesdays. We've been doing it for a few years, and fun to get out. Helps a bit with the short game!

This is great, Bruno! Get Oak to show you his new grill area he built!

@Bruno I'm around all week, minus the tee time this afternoon, let me know when you would like to check it out...

 

[Richard S]

That's a deal that can not be passed up! Coolest color/ grill combo ever and it cooks like a champ!

 

[Bruno]

Perfect thanks.
Saturday morning would be great. Let me know a good time.

Congratulations Bruno! Great looking grill!!

Oh, and Rich, how many groups are you in?

Anyone have a recommendation for some SS grates for this grill.
I’m looking for a weekday chicken cooking machine so this should be perfect. Also any help on what hose to order and maybe some reasonable flavorizer bars.
Thank you!!

 

[Sam Bee]

Of course rcplanebuyer for the bars and grates but I'm not sure if he still has grates for sale as I don't see it on his ebay store. If not then maybe Qulimetal on Amazon or maybe bbqparts.com...?

Here's a great post by Jon Tofte about stainless steel grate comparisons....

I am still hoping someday to make my first "This Old Grill" episode, but hurricane and family stuff make that unlikely for a while. So, I decided I should at least publish my findings here so that you all can review them and maybe ask some questions. I did a separate page on each set of grates. I tried to do a broad set of objective comparisons. The final analysis is obviously just my own opinion; you will probably draw some of your own differently:

Quilmetal 7mm will be a fine start, which ones do I get?

 

[LMichaels]

Personally 7mm is too thin and too spaced out. There are better choices for not much more $$$

How about cast iron grates?

 

[LMichaels]

Not worth all the trouble IMO unless you live in the desert
