Genesis ... Old Meets New

[Dave in KC]

Since Weber refused to make a bright red Genesis for the last 20 years,
I made my own. Huge thanks to Jeff at Independence Porcelain Enamel
for the gorgeous tomato red lid work.

This will be my new daily cooker next year. I finally made one that
intend to keep.

 

[Randy]

Looks great, very cool

 

[THyde]

Holy mackerel, that is very very cool!

 

[Bob H.]

Has anyone seen my Genesis? I can't seem to find it!
Really, it looks fantastic!

 

[Richard in NS]

Wow, so Cool Dave.

 

[T Gabriel]

If you can’t find one, just make your own Redhead
Very good job enjoy the new color

 

[DanHoo]

Very nice.

 

[Rich Dahl]

I really like that, great idea.

 

[Ed P]

Boy, that color sure does pop! Very, very nice.

 

[Jon Tofte]

Wow, Dave! All the way around a very cool idea beautifully executed. You are way ahead of my idea for that. I am just aiming for a crimson or maybe brick red sidewinder that I will call the “last redhead.” Yours is far in advance of that with a TRUE red hood and doors. I also like that you used classic black as your firebox and trim color, just like the earlier Genesis grills. That one would be really hard to top.

I have toyed with this idea before for flips,
but never actually pulled the trigger. When
I saw the brand new Genesis Smart Series had
gone back to that, I really like it and decided
I would try it out on this. I also consider leaving
the doors black ...

or possibly even going with the stainless door
(no pic) , but opted to go with the matching
red doors.

Yah, wow, that first picture really popped when I saw it. It almost startled me. I guess I never really realized that Weber had not made a "Weber Red" E3xx grill. That is stunning.

 

[Jabe G]

Wow!

the matching red doors look fantastic with the red hood.

I definitely like them better red than black.

What red paint did you use for the doors, and for the knobs?

I used the Rustoleum 2x apple red. Closest match I could find.

 

[Bruce]

That looks like a pretty good match to me.

 

[Dave in KC]

Gorgeous, 70 degree November weather is a rare thing
where I live. I needed to smoke a couple of chuck roasts
and veggies yesterday for a pot of chili and decided to
assemble my newest red head collection.

I regret not pulling out the Jr. Next time, for sure.

 

[Bruce]

Wow Dave

 

[Joe Anshien]

Wow beautiful setup.

 

[THyde]

Agreed. Very impressive, you have arrived!
