Stainless Steel Parts

[Harold Kessel]

I am looking to find stainless steel parts. The warming rack and the swinging basket above it on my old Weber Genesis Silver grill. Does anyone know of a place to get them?

Thanks,

Harold

Hi Harold, I can tell you from the Weber perspective that we do not make stainless steel versions of either of those parts. I'm not sure if there are any 3rd party sources that make them in stainless steel. #IworkforWeber

I don’t believe I have ever seen one of those swinging baskets in stainless, but Amazon has had third party stainless warming racks. Here is one:

YIHAM 304SS 7641 Grill Warming Rack for Weber Spirit 300 Series Spirit E-310 S-310 SP-310 E-320 S-320 SP-320 Genesis Silver Gold B C Gas Grill Upper Rack 24 7/8 inch Warming Grate Weber 91289 KR435 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08QR8NSX4/?tag=tvwb-20

I'm also looking for a stainless steel lid swinging basket for my genesis 3. Is plated steel still the only option? Does anyone have an item number for the swinging basket? Lastly did some grills come with 2 swinging baskets?

I have only seen or heard of the chrome plated swinging baskets for these grills. Although I think a stainless version would be great, the only thing I have ever cooked in mine is baked potatos. They are sold under two different part #'s, 80632 and 7514. If you do buy a new one definitely price shop. The prices on these fluctuate wildly from site to site. The older grills do have the ability to hold two of these baskets although I doubt any grills came with two originally.

On my Genesis when I bought it new, first 2 things discarded were the swinging basket and warming rack

The swinging basket doesn't get in the way like a warming rack does. But, it still starts to corrode and become useless way too fast. Most people just discard them like Larry does when they buy the grills or they use them until they turn into corroded messes and toss them and never replace them. I would maybe consider a swing basket in a SS version if it wasn't too expensive.

Bake potato hammock.

That's exactly, and pretty much only, what I used it for on my old 2001 Genesis Silver B.

Yeah the couple times I "used" mine prior to hanging it in the garage and forgetting about it, that is what I did. But, I preferred just slapping the taters on the main grates wherever I found space

Yep, same here John. I had one on my first personal Genesis. I used it for potatos, but it soon started to rust/corrode and went into the trash. I missed it a little, but not enough to pay $15 for a new one that was going to rust out in no time.
