Nobody Using Q Grills?

[Josh Dekubber]

I'm definitely not trying to offend anyone with my dislike for cast iron in a barbecue. I know a lot of people like it a lot. I used to prefer cast iron also

No worries here. Sadly the way the Q series was engineered they're the only thing that works properly. Bruce and I found some 4mm thick SS that is laser cut to mimic the CI ones but the CI still works better

I guess ideally you would need a cast stainless replica?

Could you share with me what you found?

These are the ones on my Q220. I welded them together and that is the reason for the discoloration down the middle.

That's awesome. I might prefer a smaller Q and for the prices the new 1200 are going for. Under $200 is quite appealing for a new grill

I see 1200’s pop up all the time under $100. Just keep ask eye out on Facebook or other local classifieds. Use the money saved for a griddle. I’ve made some good pancakes and smash burgers on mine.

A Genesis 3000 just came up and I'm trying to go pick it up. It's hard not to when the $50 asking price is less than the cover and the propane tank that comes with it. After factoring that in the entire Genesis 3000 is essentially free. Or maybe that's what I tell myself LOL. Anyways I will get one of these Q grills at some point for sure. I think it would be nice to be able to grill on my tailgate while I'm working on x000 grills.

Yah, I would not pay more than $50 for a Q grill unless it was in REALLY good condition. At least that is the market around here. Q rehabs don't do real well either so even if I see a good deal on one, I usually pass.

Exactly why I haven't picked one up yet. Even if it's brand new I'm only looking for an extremely good deal. It's a luxury I could live without but would be fun to play around with if I can get one for the right price.
