I'm gonna upgrade my 2-burner Weber Spirit in the near future. I like the grill, but I can't get my big 17" cast iron pan in there, and I can't close the lid on some of my other big pieces. I like to do a lot of "dirty work" and big stuff on the grill instead of in the house.
I think I'll jump up to the Weber Genesis E-435 Natural Gas. It has the Weber Crafted framework to allow the use of lots of different cook/grill ware. Adding Weber CONNECT Smart Technology bumps the price $450, and adds Stainless Steel and NightVision. Stainless is nice, but I don't crave it. All my other Weber is black.
I already have Smoke & Gateway as well as Signals. I can buy more Thermoworks stuff for a lot less than $450 if I feel that I need more stuff, but the Smoke covers ambient temp + 1 meat probe or two meat probes. I can monitor all sorts of stuff with the Signals.
Does anyone really use the Weber Smart stuff? Am I missing anything by not having it and using Thermoworks instead if I want a managed cook?
